Thursday Night Football: STEELERS/BROWNS

[Wamu]

Self defense. The QB tried to rip off his helmet and twisted his head. Miles was just standing his ground, and the guy tried that on the wrong guy.

Needlessly to say he got owned, and that was awesome...

 

[lebron23james]

Watch out for the edgy guy er'body..

I was being serious

 

[beardown07]

It doesn't really matter whether Pouncey made contact or not. Garrett barely hit Rudolph with the helmet.

The league will have no choice to give them both heavy suspensions. This was a nationally televised game in which one player tried to hit another with a helmet and another player tried to kick a player was defenseless on the ground.

While I didn't see exactly what infuriated Garrett but I wouldn't be shocked to see Rudolph suspended if they find something he did that instigated it all.

The league MUST make it clear that this sort of behavior is completely unacceptable.

Go to bed.

 

[steelerssb]

I know he was reacting, but I don't think the league will disregard his kicking of Garrett.

That's my thought too. Going after him was fine to back up his QB but kicking him when he's down will be considered excessive.

shut up, stupid

 

[FaCe-LeE-uS]

Not to mention the ball wasn't in his hands.......

Meh. I sided with Garrett all the way up until he slammed the helmet into Mason’s head.

Don’t think he knew whether Mason got rid of the ball or not. Whether he was just trying to finish the play or make a statement, don’t matter. We would have supported Watt doing the same (minus the helmet pull & smash). Not to mention Mason was clearly jawing at him while they were on the ground and even trying to rip Miles’ helmet off. Mason started that entire thing.

 

[TheRangerDude]

No, in fact, the way Garret twisted Rudolph was to avoid roughing (Garrett landing on top of him), and the swing/spin was not violent either (or any more violent than would have been unavoidable)

I don't think we are recalling it the same way. I'd have to see it again bit it seems like the contact could have been avoided altogether on my first take.

 

[The Oldtimer]

getting word that Garrett was arrested. lol

I went to a hockey game years ago and a player hit another player over the head with a stick. The cops came right onto the ice and cuffed the guy and took him away.

 

[broncosmitty]

Fuck, he never even connected, he hit the other dudes leg, barely.

You can't rip a helmet off a QB and fucking brain him with it, and not expect his o-linemen to fucking lose it.

Pouncey never even touched him as far as I could tell.

Garrett is lucky he got off that field in one piece.


Will be really lucky if he gets out of Cleveland without being disabled.


Other than Bertuzzi, never seen anything this uncalled for.

 

[Dude]

That was a lot of pent-up rage there. The dude just snapped. Is he psycho?

 

[Upinthe North]

This might be one of the stupidest posts ever on the hoop and trust me you have a lot of competition in that category.

Thank you

 

[Shanemansj13]

Congrats Brown fans on the win.

i dont really consider that much of a win

 

[steelerssb]

The Browns get a big win, maybe one that kick starts a late push and all anyone is talking about is them losing their minds at the end of the game.

Kitchens, everyone.

Mason started that entire thing.

And Garrett finished it with an assault.

Go watch it again. He fucking brained him with that helmet. A full armed overhead swing like he did with a 8 pound hard plastic helmet would hurt if a 12 year old hit you. Myles Garrett is not a 12 year old.

lol what are any of those pussies going to do to Garerett

i agree. I think if Mason doesnt rip his helmet off Garrett doesnt go crazy. Still, after that everybody just went into riot mode

You need to get your eyes checked and check your bias at the door...

 

[Pure Steel]

And Garrett finished it with an assault.

The police should be waiting outside the lockeroom for him like they were for the Hanson Brothers in Slap Shot......

 

[SteelersPride]

Exactly, i am not sure why the QB wasn't kicked out

is it that time of year where try to come troll the nfl board, but get owned , and leave again

 

[Manster7588]

Exactly, i am not sure why the QB wasn't kicked out

Well for one he didn't CRIMINALLY ASSULT someone with a helmet.
