Peppers supposedly fined 10k for his hit on Rodgers. Surprised it was that small. Was that his first fine this year?

2010-11 Green Bay Packers - Greatest...Six...Loss...Team...Ever.
http://online.wsj.com/article/SB1000...tTopCarousel_1
When the Green Bay Packers squeaked into the playoffs with a 10-6 record, not many people picked them to get to the Super Bowl. But there the Packers are, not just headed to Dallas but a betting favorite over the Pittsburgh Steelers.
A closer look at the Packers' six losses, however, shows why Green Bay is better than its record would indicate, and why the Packers are the favorites: They played close, competitive games even in defeat, in a way no NFL team ever had.
The Packers lost twice by field goals in overtime, twice by field goals in the last 10 seconds of the fourth quarter, and twice by four points, with both of those four-point losses coming on the road with quarterback Aaron Rodgers injured. No team in NFL history had ever before had a six-loss season with all six losses by four points or fewer, according to Stats Inc.
In fact, until this season's Packers, no team had even had a five-loss season with all the losses by four points or fewer. The only team that ever had four losses all by four or fewer was the 1987 Washington Redskins, who went on to win the Super Bowl.
For the bettors in Las Vegas, the margin of victory matters more than who wins and who loses, and counting the playoffs, Green Bay has now outscored its opponents by a total of 187 points—a better scoring margin than the Steelers, who have outscored their opponents by 155 points. So even though the Steelers have a better record, it's no surprise that the Packers are the Super Bowl favorites.
The 2010-11 Green Bay Packers are also the only team since the merger to never trail in any game by more than 7 points. Ever.
They still had to win a 10-6 tiebreaker to even be there, so I'd say "squeaked" - but yeah, they were the hottest team in the NFC going in.
hottest team? lose to detroit, lose to NE, rape NY, barely beat bears. they lost 2 of their last 4...
Lions did that too. Had five losses within 4 points and one within 5. They just felt like getting blown out four additional games to avoid the paparazzi following Matthew Stafford as he reached for things.
...losing two games without your starting QB, and then winning two must-win games vs. playoff contenders...
If you want to say another NFC team was hotter, go for it. Chicago was coming off a loss, Philly off 2.
Demo still raging his team whimpered in the playoffs
