ASHBURN, Va. -- The play cost the Washington Redskins seven points and a lot of momentum. It cost a lot more for receiver Santana Moss.

The NFL fined Moss $22,050 for his tirade at halftime of the Redskins' 24-13 loss to the New York Giants. Moss was upset, as were teammates and coaches, after officials overturned an apparent touchdown at the halftime gun by quarterback Robert Griffin III.

Griffin had dived for a touchdown, but after watching it on replay, officials ruled that he had lost the ball before crossing the goal line. Therefore, he had to regain possession through the play. But when he fumbled as he hit the ground in the end zone, they ruled it a touchback for New York. Moss shouted at officials as they left the field amid a cluster of Redskins and was ejected.

"I regret it but I don't take nothing back," Moss said about the tirade after the game.

In other fines:

• Cleveland Browns outside linebacker Barkevious Mingo was fined $16,537 for his hit to the head and neck area on Bengals QB Andy Dalton in the first quarter of Cincinnati's 30-0 win last Sunday.

The Browns had the Bengals stopped on third-and-6, but Mingo's roughing-the-passer penalty gave the Bengals another first down and continued a 14-play, 81-yard touchdown drive to open the game.

Based on Mingo's $495,000 base salary (not including bonuses), the fine covers more than half his weekly pay.

Fellow outside linebacker Paul Kruger feels for Mingo, saying it's "becoming very difficult" to stay within the rules on quarterback hits that promote player safety.

"You have to adapt to those types of rules for good reason," Kruger said. "But especially with the fines being the way they are, it's becoming extremely difficult, if not impossible to have a clean game the way you're being asked to play."

• Packers LB Sam Barrington was fined $16,537 for a horsecollar tackle on Bills RB Andre Dixon.
