    Still different. Garrett had a chance to gather himself and swung from behind

    The Smith incident can be viewed in the heat of battle. It happened in play not in a fight

    Yeah, from this angle that looks like the helmet connected pretty decently, and while this is awful, I'm glad it's not as bad as it really could have been. I mean if Garrett wasn't restrained here/slightly slowed down, I think he easily could have hit Rudolph harder/come back for another swing.

    I think it's even more crazy this occurred since the game was basically over too....

    Myles Garrett: Suspended indefinitely, for at least the rest of this season, plus a fine

    Maurice Pouncey: 3 games, plus a fine

    Larry Ogunjobi: 1 game, plus a fine

    The Browns and Steelers have been fined $250K.

    Some are posting the best fights on twitter. Still incredible that Andre wasn't suspended even for one game.
    Andre got a standing ovation and the crowd pumped up at a Rockets game. A Rockets game where Hasheem Thabeet was on the roster.

    Pouncey should not get 3 games. Kicking and punching someone with a helmet on does nothing. It should only be for one game and the Steelers should pay any money that he loses for it since he was the only one who defended their qb.

    Doesnt matter if does anything or not, its the act/display of violence that the nfl doesnt want to be seen so blatantly and front and center for the whole world. Pouncey was made an example is all. I dont agree either.

    If Ogunjobi got one game then Rudolph should get one game for trying to pull Garrett's helmet off (essentially what started the fracas).

    I don’t remember it either, but why would it happening in preseason make a difference?

    Complimenting BoB constitutes hatred of him?

    You always misunderstand me. I'm saying preseason is a reason for not remembering

    I guess I (and others) need to take a course in deciphering pgabriel posts.

    Bro if i say something isn't memorable it happened during preseason. The logial leap is it isnt memorable because it happened during preseason

    As opposed to a logical leap of if someone did something deserving of a season suspension but it was preseason so no harm no foul

    When i started this thread it was immediately after the incident. I didn't know. It would be a hot topic

    The issue about race popped in my head so i posted that but when i say im not forcing it i understand if people don't see it as an issue and have no problem with that
