Dockett Gets Docked for Hit on Williams
He should have received a 15 yd penalty too:
Also from that game, Cardinals DT Darnell Dockett was fined $5,000 for "impermissible use of the helmet (helmet-to-helmet contact)."
That one was for a shot to Panthers RB DeAngelo Williams.
Cheap shot for sure!

I'm on the fence with this one...
I thought his hit was a little cheap, but completely within the realm of legal action on the play. Except that he lowered his helmet right at the last second. If he’d put his shoulder into DWill’s head instead of the crown of his helmet, I’d still have felt it was an unnecessary but completely legit move.
