MHSL82 pretty sure going low on the legs of a quarterback in the pocket is illegal. Von Miller's hit at least would be legal if Smith hadn't gotten the ball away.
Then, just leave it as a penalty, no fine. As you noted later, he was pushed in. I was just referring to the fact that one how One head of fine when the quarterback still had the ball (yes, I know, it was low) and the other didn't. I think neither should've had a fine or both should have a fine. If I were to give a fine, it would be reversed due to timing and intent. Note, when I say intent, I don't mean to injure, I mean to hit. Although everyone wants to hit the quarterback, I don't think that the Chiefs player was intending on hitting him, at least not where he hit him. If he were where to try to hit him higher. I guess I could say that the Denver player would've tried to hit him earlier. So I guess in conclusion, I wouldn't have fined either player.
