NEW YORK - The NFL will not fine coaches Jim Harbaugh and
Jim Schwartz for their postgame tiff Sunday.
In celebration of a victory at Detroit, 49ers coach Harbaugh
gave Lions coach Schwartz a roundhouse handshake and a backslap
that Schwartz took offense to. A scrum broke out, with coaches and
players involved.
"Fortunately, there was no fighting and thus no basis for a
fine," a league spokesman says Monday. "However, both coaches
told (NFL executive VP) Ray Anderson today that their postgame
conduct was wrong and will not happen again. We believe their
response is the correct one and that their postgame conduct going
forward will be more appropriate."
The 49ers won 25-19 to improve to 5-1 and hand the Lions their
first loss after five victories.
