Didn't Rivers get sacked when someone on the ground grabbed his foot from behind? I demand a review and a fine!

I hope KC beats the crap out of Manning this week. We loosened them up a bit and Manning is now continually dinged, not that he was ever mobile. Should be a good game....i dont know who to root for though. I want a tie. I want Manning and Alex to get in a bar fight and both get suspended after they get found in a motel room together.

Denver takes issue with Chargers again
Corey Liuget not fined for Peyton Manning hit deemed 'questionable'
By Michael Gehlken4:59 P.M.NOV. 12, 2013
Last year, it was a towel.
This year, it's a hit.
The Chargers hosted the Broncos on Sunday, and like the time before, the Denver sideline raised eyebrows with something it saw on the field. The NFL, like the time before, won't deliver punishment for the matter in question, as a source said Tuesday the league is not fining defensive end Corey Liuget for a hit on quarterback Peyton Manning.
Liuget made initial contact above Manning's knees when dragging him down late in the fourth quarter.
A defender with an unobstructed path is not allowed to flagrantly strike a quarterback below.
Manning re-aggravated an ankle injury on the pass, completed to seal the Broncos' 28-20 win. Interim coach Jack Del Rio said Monday that the club submitted the play for review.
"We'll let the league determine," Del Rio said to Denver media. "We thought it was questionable, and they'll provide their answer."
After the game, the Denver Post's Woody Paige decried the play as "late and illegal" under the headline, "Cheap shot on Peyton Manning will be punished by NFL."
"Don't ever take a knife to Mona Lisa's face, a hammer to David's chest or a helmet to Peyton's legs," Paige wrote. "Don't take a cheap shot at a work of art."
The Chargers were called out in 2012 for using Gorilla Gold towels, a fairly common product in the league at the time. A league investigation gave no punishment related to the tackifying towels' usage. The product has since been banned in the league. The NFL Competition Committee considered lifting it earlier this year.

Manning is the biggest whiner in the league. He comes from a family of whiners and he turns everyone around him into...WHINERS!!!
Anyone else would be called out for what he is, but not poster boy Peyton.sigpic

The fact is, this would only be a story if it was Manning or Brady. Period.
It happened to Manning.
I expect a 5,000 word opus from Peter King explaining exactly why these quarterbacks can't be hit in the legs, the arm, the head, or the torso. They need to be grabbed, and held...gently, like a newborn...a very nicely set down on the ground, preferably with a blanket.
When this is the reaction regarding the league's "Poster Boy" Quarterbacks, and with the evidence of the concussions studies continuing to come in...
I know I've been harping on this, but football is going to look like 7 on 7 2 hand touch in the future."...of course that's just my opinion, I could be wrong."
