A day after Patriots safety Patrick Chung received a $7,500 fine from the league for his hit Sunday on Dolphins quarterback Chad Henne, Chung said he didn't realize the tackle would draw a penalty, calling it "an honest mistake." NFL rules on quarterback hits are far more stringent then college, which Chung, as a rookie, is still adjusting. "Just got to get used to them," Chung said. "It was an honest mistake. It wasn't intentional. I would never try to do that and get the fine, the penalty. But it's a game. Things happen. I don't make the rules. I'm not mad about it at all."
You just can't go around tackling guys like you were in College. This is the NFL. We have rules against that kind of thing. Think 2 handed touch, and you'll get it down
