We hope not either. ... Last week, Raiders DT Richard Seymour hit Steelers QB Ben Roethlisberger in the facemask with an open hand. Seymour was fined $25,000 by the league but was not suspended, and he played this week against the Miami Dolphins. It will be interesting to see how league disciplines Johnson and Finnegan. Johnson landed a couple of serious punches but the Texans believe the film will show Finnegan was the instigator. That said, ESPN's Chris Mortensen notes tht Johnson did get fined $7500 for throwing Finnegan to ground by facemask last year. ... Stay tuned. The Texans have a short week before facing the Eagles on Thursday.
