    Should have been an ejection and a one-game suspension. They failed to make the ejection, so the two-game suspension is appropriate.

    Make no mistake, Trevathan willfully and purposely attempted to injure Adams. This is not to say he meant to hit Adams in the head. I think he was trying to take a shot into Adams' ribs with a helmet spear after the play was essentially over, if not technically over. Adams was in no position to defend himself from the oncoming wrath. This type of punisher/enforcer blow would pretty much go unnoticed by everyone in the viewing audience, except Adams' head dipped sharply as his legs went out from him right before Trevathan connected.

    The league can do 2-game suspensions this season, 4-gamers next year and then go up to 8 the year after that. An 8-game suspension for this kind of blow is what needs to happen to keep this kind of hit from occurring in the league.

    One week.

    Appeals officer Derrick Brooks, jointly appointed by NFL & NFLPA, has reduced suspension of Danny Trevathan from 2 games to 1 game
    Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.

    Of course. If the NFL really wanted two games, the initial suspension would have been four games. No surprise.

    he's the one who broke Ty's ribs too. dude leads with his helmet all the time. 2 game suspension should have stood even though he's a first time offender.

    WINNER WINNER WINNER

    Most figured this would get reduced. That is why 2 games to start was ludicrous
    LIFE IS ABOUT CHAMPIONSHIPS; I JUST REALIZED THIS. The MILWAUKEE BUCKS have won the same number of championships over the past 50 years as the Green Bay Packers. Ten years from now, who will have more championships, and who will be the fart in the wind ?

    Fucking dumb. Lying pieces of shit. They don't care about saftey.
    Swede: My expertise in this area is extensive. The essential difference between a "battleship" and an "aircraft carrier" is that an aircraft carrier requires five direct hits to sink, but it takes only four direct hits to sink a battleship.

    I think 4 games would have been the right call. Often appeals happen and the term gets cut in half. It would not surprise me if Danny plays his cards right and this ends up at 1 game

    THAT PHONY ASS APOLOGY HELPED MAKE MY PREDICTION COME TRUE

    John Fox should be suspended a game or two for sending him back out on the next play.

    Interesting reading the media lately.

    They showed the single play to various players to see if there was 'intent'

    Did they show the context? A game out of reach, chippy to that point, on a long/irrelevant 3rd down, and a player celebrating after?

    This is the sort of CRAP by the NFL that will turn fans away from the NFL game.

    I am disgusted by this 'slap on the wrist' 1 game Suspension Final Ruling.

    The NFL had a perfect opportunity to back itself up and 'the TRUTH of a stance for Player Safety' and this ugly Danny Trevathan 'leading with the helmet hit ' and simply blew it.

    Obviously the NFL doesn't care all that much for Player Safety. This is about Football not Cage Fighting, NFL Head Office.

    I hope the Green Bay Packers have a harsh response, that this penalty (only 1 game) was clearly unsatisfactory.

    I dunno. A suspension is a big deal, even one game. The hit looked all ugly and that, and they did send a message.

    If you look at how guys get injured, the tackle 'technique' by Travathan - lowering his head and leading with the crown - can result in a spinal cord injury. I think the NFL has to do something about teaching a different tackling technique, or they're gonna be playing flag football sooner than later.

    Gruden is a moron and has always been one. The fact he believes Trevathan made a great play is idiotic but not shocking.

    I never understand why people like him as a color commentator. He's horse shit...
