We suspect the NFL will announce its presence with a fine for Landry next week. Landry appeared to lead with his helmet, not his shoulder. He wound up hitting Cruz in the chin. It was a massive hit, but Cruz jumped up quickly to signal first down and show he was doing well. Read More...

LaRon Landry has not played a full season yet. That's why Redskins parted ways with him. Just another odd piece to this Jets Team which is shaping up into a disaster. Takes more than a dirty hit to put the Cruz Man down,

I do not really think it was dirty. It was an old school hard hit. I bet he is wondering where is the fine on jacobs for that hit.

Unless my eyes deceive me, he played -- and started -- 47 of his first 48 games. http://www.nfl.com/player/laronlandry/2495658/profile

Thanks for clarification. So basically he has not been healthy for the past couple of years

Yup, past two years he's missed about half of each season.

He didn't look to gimpy, but I want to see how he'll hold up.

A hit doesn't have to be "dirty" to merit a fine or a flag. "Dirty" implies intent and Landry's helmet hit Cruz's facemask in the area of the chin. That's a foul.
