  • I’m going to repeat this: why with eight seconds left in the game you’re losing by 14 points do you have your starting quarterback in there and you have them going back to throw a pass where he could get sacked where he could get hurt. You lost the game take a fucking knee. 

  • Unbiased fball fan here.  Simply stunned by final minute of game and wanted to see how y’all were dealing with it and what was being said.    Unfortunately I think Garrett will be out for a long time. 

  • @jbluhm86 said:

    Steve Smith summed it up pretty succinctly on TNF postgame show: what if Garrett would've hit Rudolph in the head in a wrong way and paralyzed the dude? I know, as Browns fans, we hate the Steelers, but there's no way we can defend that shit. It was just wrong, plain and simple.

    You can say 'what if' all day long, bottom line is Rudolph's fine, Garrett will be suspended, hopefully for just 2 or 3 games, and we whupped them up and down the field

    I believe he'll get 5 or 6. Think albert Haynesworth stomping andre gurode helmetless head.

    Myles buried his own grave on a suspension with those Busch league antics. Couldn’t just wait 2 weeks until we play the Steelers again. AMATEUR.

    What did you think of the Steelers kicking him in the head while he was down?  Should they be suspended?

    He was protecting his quarterback from an injurious assault.  He was attempting to subdue the attacker with force.  Part of it was rage.  That part will be penalized.

    You're probably right, I'm hoping for the best here. Rudolph being completely unhurt will help lessen the suspension tho. On the other hand, I wouldn't be surprised if the Steelnutz didn't claim he has concussion symptoms in the next few days and then keep playing him

    I believe this was worse than the  Haynesworth incident.  I’ll be surprised if Garrett isn’t done for the year. 

  • Two games... plus anger counseling for Myles.

    One game for Pouncey....

    Multiple fines for both teams.

    Not going to make apologies for Myles, but Rudolph was clearly trying to rip off Myles' helmet when they were on the ground. That set Myles off.

    Stars don't get long suspensions for first offenses.

    He's likely to be suspended for 12 games.  Pouncey for 2 games.

    Anybody got anything to say now?  Mason Rudolph is 6'4" 240 lps thereabouts - all built by an NFL strength team/weight room (plus whatever else...) and is wearing NFL cleats and twice goes after Garrets ability to sire children - and you STILL you think its Garret's fault?  My father is a Vietnam Veteran who volunteered for service in 1964.  He told me growing up if somebody hits me I goddamn well better hit their ass back - or don't bother coming home.

    Agree 100%

    it was interesting Aikman making excuses for Rudolph.  His hand stuck? 

    Rudolph started this whole dang thing

    Aikman made excuses for Mason the whole game, blamed his o-line and left out all the terrible throws for picks and unconverted 3rd downs

    6 games is the rest of the year...

     Also I don't know that it is any worse than haynesworth. Garrett was at least provoked (not excusing)  Haynesworth just did it because he got blocked and they gave up a td. Drew blood guy needed 30 stitches.  This can't be worse than that.

    I hope I'm wrong but I think he'll be suspended indefinitely and be subject to psychological assessment before he is allowed near anything bearing the NFL crest, if at all. Someone in this topic commented that he "almost" committed a felony. There is no "almost".

  • Myles Garrett in a twisted sense, was acting in self defense. 
    The play was over..mad QB who just threw 4 INTs tries to rip Garrett’s helmet off, proceeds to kick him in the nuts. 
    Garrett finds a weapon for safety, crazed QB proceeds to attack Myles, so Myles acts in self defense with a tap to the head..

    I doubt it, 12 games would tie the longest on-field suspension in league history, and that was for Burfict who had a bunch of previous suspensions

    Do you remember albert Haynesworth incident.  He stomped on a dude's unprotected head with his cleat while the guy was laying on the ground.  To the point where he drew blood. The guy needed 30 stitches.

    I think we will come out guns flying in 2 weeks and put the damn smack down on them,, I mean what ? you a pit fan ?

    So let me follow....because I think the Stools might retaliate I'm a fan of theirs?  Sure.

    I’d say the difference is he ripped the dudes helmet off (his only protection against what was about to come), then used that very item (now a lethal weapon) and clocked him over the head.  I’ve been watching football for 45 years and I’ve never seen that before.

    Stomping on a dude's head who is laying on the ground (no helmet because Haynesworth knocked it off) with cleats to the point he needs 30 stitches. The difference is Garrett was provoked and was still being aggressively approached while Haynesworth just stomped on a guy who wasn't doing anything but laying on the ground. Both used weapons (cleat and helmet)  to hit someone in the head.  One sent a guy to the hospital one the guy played the next snap.
