101Raider Posted November 15, 2019 Share Posted November 15, 2019 Precedents already been set for helmet stomp with Albert Haynsworth. I think Pouncy get 5 games. Rudolph, whatever.... fine him if you have too Now Garrett, that craps unprecedented, unwarranted, and disgusting. league needs to be extremely heavy handed. Thinking Indefinite suspension coming (ultimately out till around this time next year). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He reacted exactly how you would want a player to react in that situation. Tried his best to corral the situation with a simple take down and pin. Idk maybe this is a reach but when I saw that I felt like maybe he was trying to protect Garrett from what he knew was about to happen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mega Ron Posted November 15, 2019 Share Posted November 15, 2019 Can't Myles just write a personal poem to Rudolph, and perhaps another to the whole Steeler Nation, to make peace? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suggested a 22 game suspension which would be the rest of this season and all of next season. At what point can criminal charges be pursued. I haven’t followed this thread but it would seem if Garrett is using a helmet to assault someone, he should be in bigger trouble than just a suspension.

Lol ok. I’m not sure why people feel the need to blame some other dude for the actions of a grown man. Is that what I said? I said the whole team is undisciplined. Not making this just an isolated issue. Obviously Garrett has his own issues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I highly respect the Browns fans that came in here and left their Jerseys "in their car" and were honest about this situation. I appreciate that as a sports fan Look, any Browns fan who can’t see what Garrett did is wrong is an idiot or homer, but some of the takes on the other side are just as bad. Banning for life, this year and next year, etc. Haynesworth cleated a guy in the face without a helmet and was given 5. I believe that’s the longest suspension for something similar to this. There’s your precedent. The rest of the year is a 20% increase over that. I’m all for being unbiased, but that coin has 2 sides. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I honestly think, and this has been said across a few threads, that criminal charges probably wouldn't stick, given that in real-life circumstances it could easily be argued that he was defending himself. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Idk y, but reportedly the Cleveland Police were in the Browns locker room last night. Criminal charges based on what happened could be pressed by Rudolph if he chose to go that route. Its Aggravated Assault. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scoundrel Posted November 15, 2019 Share Posted November 15, 2019 The only way Garrett could lessen his suspension here would be to try and spin the narrative that Mason called him a racial term. And that is what escalated the helmet swing. Then the social justice warriors would rush to defend Garrett and his suspension wouldn’t be as long. Now this would be immoral but so was last night.
