NEWS NOW: Green Bay Packers Supporters React to Huge Fine for Possibly Career-Changing Dirty Play

The Green Bay Packers are currently on break for Week 6. Their most recent game was a loss against the Las Vegas Raiders on a Monday night. Las Vegas defeated Green Bay 17-13 thanks to a game-ending interception.

Several storylines continued after that game’s end. The closest touchdown attempt by Christian Watson, which could have ended the game, was one of the biggest ones. Jordan Love’s 77-yard connection to Watson in the middle of the third quarter gave the Packers’ offence a boost. However, the main plot of that play was how it concluded.

Marcus Peters of the Las Vegas Raiders was hit with a significant fine for his horse collar tackle on Christian Watson of the Green Bay Packers.

For our website, Robin Adams of Wisconsin Sports Heroics first broke the story as follows:

For his illegal tackle on Watson, Peters received a $13,378 punishment, according to Tom Pelissero of the NFL Network.

A possible game-changing score was prevented by the tackle, according to Mike Florio of Pro Football Talk:

“Marcus Peters saved a TD with an unlawful horse-collar tackle. It might have changed how the game turned out. The league should at least discuss whether a TD should be considered a touchdown going forward.

rewarded if this occurs.

Watson would have been able to score, giving Green Bay a 17-10 lead and maybe extending the overtime period.

For the purposes of argument, assume Watson scored the touchdown. Green Bay now leads 17-10. Consider a scenario in which Las Vegas scores the go-ahead touchdown, making the score 17-17 before the Packers’ last drive.

Love and the offence move into field goal range rather than throw the interception with seconds left. Anders Carlson would have been able to make the tying field goal if this had occurred.

rewarded if it takes place.

Watson’s goal would have given Green Bay a 17-10 advantage and maybe extended OT.

Consider Watson to have scored the touchdown for the sake of the discussion. Now up 17-10 is Green Bay. Imagine that Las Vegas scores the winning touchdown to tie the game at 17 before the Packers’ last possession.

With few seconds left, Love and the offence choose to advance into field goal range as opposed to throwing the interception. If that had happened, Anders Carlson would have been able to kick the go-ahead field goal.
