    Huh?
    Garrett swung a helmet at Rudolph and hit him. He will get atleast 2 games and deserve it, no matter what color he is.

    Am I the only one who noticed Rudolph pulling at Garret’s helmet at the very beginning when they are falling to the ground?

    Doesn’t excuse what he did, but that has to be what set him off.

    Myles Garrett should be suspended for the rest of the season. I don't care what Rudolph did to instigate things.

    Also, I have no problem with Pouncey's retaliation. Hopefully he only gets suspended for 1 or 2 games.

    Loved Myles Garrett as an Aggie and always seemed like a stand up dude, but this is insane. I think the punishment starts at a full Calendar year ban, and you could probably actually get me on board for more ... to me this is almost the equivalent of a baseball played charging the mound with a bat, though maybe more accurately equates to a pitcher intentionally hitting a batter in the head with a fastball

    It'll be interesting to see what happens, but it wouldn't be surprising to see an indefinite suspension and a year or so down the line, he will have to apply for reinstatement

    Also, it's Thursday night football, not Monday night football. OP is rife with fail.

    No...it wasn't. Rudolph wasn't hurt. He will get suspended. You can't compare what happened to Rudy T....because there was no life-threatening injury (Doesn't matter if it could have been). Dangerous? Yes.

    He took off a quarterbacks helmet and then tried to beat his face in with the helmet.

    The league has to come down hard on everyone involved and especially Garrett. The league cannot risk this happening again, which means showing the players and coaches the penalties are severe.

    This had the potential to be terrible for the league especially with CTE. Had the helmet connected cleanly he would have had potential long term brain damage.

    Also two coaching staffs that cannot control their players. Not shocked it was these two teams.

    For as mediocre as BOB is, this would never happen to his team.

    ^^^this

    He could have killed him if he connected cleanly.

    For a league that claims they're concerned about player safety they should suspend Garrett a minimum of TEN games!!

    That was nasty. Thank goodness he didn’t connect. 3 games minimum I’m sure.

    And that has to this how? Unless Mason files a police report, jail is not happening. Many things that happen on a football field would get u thrown in jail off it.

    The point is Rudolph was not hurt and it doesn’t rise to the level of what happened to Rudy T.

    Couldn’t resist bringing your O’Brien hate into this conversation? You need help.

    I complimented BOB. He would not allow something like that to happen on the field. For all his weaknesses, he does have control of his team and holds players responsible.

    16 game suspension.

    I've got espn on in the background and it's funny listening to their coverage, talking heads trying to out-outrage each other. I thought Adam Schefter was going to need an oxygen mask.
