J.P. Losman should be suspended by the league for intentionally planting his front leg into Wilforks forearm.
Losman should also be fined $25,000
This could have resulted in a serious injury and this can not be tolarated.
Watch the hit below!

Beware of Sarcasm
crazy
Absolutely. Just like the returner who stuck his chest into Everett's helmet.
Should have known, way back in 1960 when we drafted Richie Lucas Number 1, that this would be a long, hard ride. But who could have known it would be THIS bad?
If Wilfork is not suspended or at least fined heavily, I will believe that the Patriots are Goodell's team again. It started with the slap in the wrist for Belicheat. Now if Wilfork doesn't get what he deserved, that would be the final straw.
dumbest. post. ever.
it's called sarcasm!Originally Posted by gilbert23b
Haaaaaaaa, Its a shame you need to tell some people that!it's called sarcasm!
Now that's funny!
Just another reason for disdain of the pats....nice launch Wilfork.. karma is a ***** im sure it will come around.
Wally, you may find it helpful around here to use the /sarcasm tag.
Do you think?Wally, you may find it helpful around here to use the /sarcasm tag.
Ahhh, he was just trying to break his fall
and pats fans said he was pushed into Losman. What a crock.
BTW Wally, if it wasn't obvious that they'd be favoring NE ,I'm almost sure the NFL would fine Losman.
Did you see this one?

Turn up the volume.At the Brady one especially!
I didn't come here to fight, I hate fighting. Life is way too short to spend it on fighting! Go fight with yourself, one of you will eventually win!
Looked like a dirty hit to me.
Have you ever seen a more obvious Cheap shot...not me!
Vince says it wasn't a cheap shot:
Nose tackle Vince Wilfork drew a large media crowd in the Patriots' locker room today, and said he's reached out to Bills QB J.P. Losman to let him know he did not intend to injure him in Sunday's game.
Wilfork and Losman have yet to connect. Wilfork, who has yet to hear from the NFL regarding a potential fine, feels his reputation is taking an unfair hit.
"Let me make something clear," he said while sitting at his locker, surrounded by cameras. "A lot of people probably listened to what I said and took it the wrong way. The only reason I talked about a fine is that they have a rule for quarterbacks -- if you hit them below the waist you're subject to a fine. A lot of people probably think that Wilfork doesn't care, he's looking for the fine. That wasn't the fact. I got penalized for that, there are consequences behind that.
"Did I mean to do that? No, far from that. Like I just said, if you know me as a person and a player, it wouldn't be an issue because they know I have too much respect and love for this game, and for players, for me to be a dirty player.
"So if you don't know me, don't judge me. Point blank, that's what I want people to know. You have a lot of people out there saying 'that was a dirty hit.' If you don't know me, get to know me. Because if you know me, that wouldn't be a question. I'm not a dirty player."
Wilfork was asked if he felt center Melvin Fowler was riding him on the hit on Losman, which came on the game's first play and knocked Losman out of the contest after three plays (knee strain).
"I have one guy tripping me up, and I have one guy hitting my left leg," Wilfork said. "Of course, that's the only reason I was falling. I'm mad at the reason, because he's hurt. That's a quarterback. That's what I regret. Him being a quarterback and getting hurt wasn't intentional."
Wilfork said he has some friends on the Bills and has reached out to Losman through them.
"I've tried to talk to him, as a person, to let him know how I feel about the whole situation. We have people blowing this thing out of proportion, saying how dirty I am. All these years I've been playing football, never once have I been labeled a dirty player. All of a sudden, I'm a dirty player. ...
"When I leave this earth, I'm going to leave with one thing, and that's my name. Don't bash my name because of one incident. As long as he understands that wasn't intentional, and that organization [understands], I'm fine."
Wilfork was asked to clear up how he landed on Losman, with his right elbow flexed as he was falling. The elbow made contact with Losman's knee.
"I have a million and one things going on in my mind," he said. "You're tripping, a 300-and-something pound [lineman] tripping, I have no idea what's going on. I don't know where my arm is at. Like I said, it wasn't intentional."
what he says and what the video shows are 2 different things. What's he supposed to say? I wanted to end his career. Give me a break, er I mean JP.
Protest much, Wilfork?
"I have one guy tripping me up, and I have one guy hitting my left leg," Wilfork said.
UH, the video shows otherwise.
