You’ve been rational and levelheaded in this thread and I appreciate that, but shoving the crown of your helmet under a dude’s chin when he isn’t expecting it is also using it as a “weapon” to inflict damage. And a jump kick to a punter’s face isn’t “part of the game”. The hypocrisy of Steelers fans (not saying you specifically) cheering for a half dozen dirty players over the years only to come clutch the pearls in here is what some of us find amusing.

But Garrett reaction DOESN'T justify his assault. He escalated the situation significantly by removing and swinging a helmet. Had he pulled and jostled at the facemask like Rudolph did, he would have reacted in a justifiable way. He took that pull/jostle and escalated the situation by removing the helmet - just removing Rudolph's helmet was an escalation of events. We're not even talking about the swing, the swing pushes the escalation much further. The only way Pouncey can escalate beyond that is if he tried to cut him at the knee and blow his knee (and livelihood) out. THAT would put Pouncey on an unforgivable level - trying to deliberately ruin Garrett's career. I cannot stand Pouncey, but he's not in the wrong on this one. He met an escalation with the same level that Myles Garrett took it too (if anything, taking him down and throwing a few punches to a fully padded Garrett is actually pretty tame). 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm happy with the injection of jokes and poetry. I'm workshopping the name, but I'm thinking either pokes or joems. Has to be pokes I think.

Brown was fined for that action. The Harrison hits also brought about this rule change. But honestly....are you trying to equate hits to the helmet on the field with using a helmet as a weapon in terms of outrage levels? A sin is a sin A brutal act is a brutal act, you're trying to make one bigger to support your narrative Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, I'm not saying that those things are ok. But if you want to say where was the outrage from those hits, I would be more accepting if only the Burnette and Randle hits happened and we were calling for long suspensions. What Garrett did though was outside the realm of a play happening. And that's why the outrage to it happens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
