eball Posted November 15, 2019 Share Posted November 15, 2019 Glad the NFL got this right. Not suspending Rudolph is enough of a penalty for the Steelers. They still have to play him at QB. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Best way to dislodge a hand is with a swift kick in the balls. Always does the trick. Just knocks it right outta those helmets. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Orlando Tim Posted November 15, 2019 Share Posted November 15, 2019 I think Rudolph deserves a game but the actions are not equitable and therefore neither should be the punishment. I can see an argument for none since he got the worst of it but I would prefer he get one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The game is over, you are backed up deep in your own territory, you can't win and there are 8 seconds left. Why are you running a play? Just kneel the ball down and get out of there. Why are you risking injury to your players needlessly? it’s totally idiotic. The flip side though is why is Garrett even out there in garbage time? both coaches were dumb. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TigerJ Posted November 15, 2019 Share Posted November 15, 2019 I watched part of the game, but missed Garrett's assault, so I won't comment on the league's response. From the Bills' perspective, it could not have turned out better. The Browns beat the Steelers, handicapping their efforts to compete for a wild card berth. Meanwhile, the Browns, who were seeming to turn their season around and maybe mount their own push for a wild card position, will find that effort damaged by a lengthy suspension of Myles Garrett, whose pass rushing prowess may be the single most important factor in the success of their defense. Pouncey is not as important for the Steelers offensive line, but with a young QB, losing him for a few games doesn't help. I wouldn't be surprised if the Garrett suspension costs Cleveland 2 or 3 games, and Pouncey's might cost Pittsburgh a game. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

billspro Posted November 15, 2019 Share Posted November 15, 2019 39 minutes ago, RyanC883 said: Garrett's suspension sounds right. Pouncy's likely will be reduced. 1 game is likely what happens here, esp. with current and former players agreeing with his actions, although the kicking the head, I'm fine with 3 games. But I see it getting reduced to 1. The guy who shoved Rudolph after Garrett assaulted Rudolph should have received 3 games. He blindside shoved him. Rudolph was not even engaged with him or anyone at that point. Pouncey’s suspension is extreme. His actions were purely defending his QB. I would hope all players would do the same. Everything else is reasonable. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fan_in_tx Posted November 15, 2019 Share Posted November 15, 2019 39 minutes ago, Talley56 said: Rudolph pulled his helmet off after a very soft tackle in which Garrett clearly didn’t know he had gotten rid of the ball. Nothing wrong with the tackle at all. If it hadn’t been for the helmet swing Rudolph would have been the one way more in the wrong. A travesty that he gets off without punishment. Brady gets the flag on that tackle by Garrett. Rudolph deserved the flag for that tackle as well.
