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

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

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

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".

CLEVELANDwantsPLAYOFFS

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..

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.

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’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.

Myles didn't go in the stands and fight yinzers and is a first time offender

D Bone

Just turned the channel (LA Fox TV) and the consensus of Vince Ferragamo, Jackie Slater and Shawne Merriman is that Myles will be suspended the rest of the year at a minimum, and indefinitely at a maximum. All 3 ex players were extremely harsh and talked about how long it's going to take Myles to change the perception of himself that he himself created in 8 seconds.

We'll all know pretty quick as the NFL will act swiftly on this.................... on a brighter note, we beat the fuckin' Stoolers.

But as the commentators are saying, it could have paralysed him. Better, worse? That's like asking which is worse? Eating a turd or a live spider. And Garrett semi started it from throwing him down and laying on him when he didn't need to. Then Rudolph reacted.

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

you would think that dumb ass rudolph once his helmet came off would not have stuck around

I didn't say it was better or worse. I said they were very similar so I expect a suspension of 5-6 games. Someone else said Garrett's was worse so I was just stating why I don't think Garrett's was worse. I was trying to show him Haynesworth was just as bad.
