Not when your helmet was off and you decided to go shove the guy who was already engaged with another man because your feelings were hurt about being made look weak? +++ What Garrett did was inexcusable, but Rudolph needs to shut the hell up. It wasnt a clean play. Myles took him down well after the pass and pushed him further into the turf. I'd want words with Myles too. None of Mason's actions warrants what Myles did. People equivocating in defense of Myles using Mason's rightful anger at him is pretty interesting. It's like saying "My neighbor yelled at me. So naturally I can hit him in the head with a brick." 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
babyatemydingo Posted November 15, 2019 Share Posted November 15, 2019 Garrett's subsequent contrition will probably spare him a full season, if only on appeal. This is Goodell's NFL. They are very much concerned with safety and how it is perceived by the public. They want kids to play football. This is as bad as the Ray Rice incident to the brand. I amend my comment. 16 games, reduced to 12, not 10. Well, maybe still 10. Nothing less. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Onizuka Posted November 15, 2019 Share Posted November 15, 2019 Just now, Bassomatic said: Watch the entire goddamn play. Mason Rudolph got rid of the ball, and Myles Garrett took him to the ground long after the ball was gone. Rudolph was, in fact, reacting to the unnecessary roughness by Garrett. Garrett's reaction to Rudolph's reaction was way out of line. I don't understand how everyone is saying watch the video acting like we are just looking at a box score.... I've seen the video....I've agreed that Garrett did not need to take him down like that; but being taken down the way he did, did nothing but hurt Rudolph's ego seeing as he had a terrible night. This is football...there are rough plays and players get mad when the rough plays are against them...but when said rough plays doesn't cause any sort of injury other than damage to the ego, it does not justify that player retaliating the way Rudolph did....hell, I would even been ok with him just trying to rip Garrett's helmet off and stopping there. But, the dude's ego made him keep going even after his linemen separated him and Garrett. All I'm saying is people need to stop acting like Rudolph was innocent, he did not warrant being hit in the head with his own helmet, but dude should of just stopped once his linemen separated him from Garrett. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No flag was delivered on the play, nor should there have been. I agree that Garrett overreacted. Rudolph started it and Garrett finished it with an insanely reactionary aggression. If it had ended with him violently ripping off Mason's helmet, that would be one thing. Trying to smash his head with his helmet is aggravated assault. He shouldn't be suspended... He should be arrested and charged with a felony. And before you claim I'm being bias, I would say the same thing if any Steeler player did the same thing. ******* disgusting. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes it's his fault his helmet came off by Myles ripping it off. Yes he was at wrong for being shoved from behind to the ground when standing there. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Justwinning Posted November 15, 2019 Share Posted November 15, 2019 For the people getting on Pouncey... So if one of your friends (or whoever you care about) gets struck with something because they “provoked” the other person, are you going to defend them? Or no because it’s their fault for starting it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don’t ever provoke anyone then. No matter how big or small right My best recommendation to anybody here is to not start a fight. It is possible for both players to be in the wrong, even if Garrett was more in the wrong. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Myles deserves to be. None of them were banned for life, and that was infinitely worse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And had Garrett let Mason do that, Mason gets a flag and a fine. Instead Garrett should be suspended indefinitely. "It's a violent game" is not a justification for any violence. And certainly not justification for what Garrett did. Guy who retaliates, always gets hit with the laundry and fines Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
