Cracker? The dumbass don’t know it’s spelled cracka?

He didn't change his auto correct settings form their default.

[pbmax]

The Ravens offense is as horizontal as the Bears last year. But LJ is an even better runner. He had a monster hesitation move to escape the pocket on his second trip back across the field.

[mraynrand]

He didn't change his auto correct settings form their default.

"form"

What spellcheck?

I have spell check on. Not grammar check threw.

The #Browns have waived S Jermaine Whitehead.

@JosinaAnderson
The #Browns have waived S Jermaine Whitehead.

Gotta love the pinnacle of software (eating the world) technology that can bring us the Twitter stylings of Jermaine Whitehead. Just think, decades ago you’d have to wait years before encountering him, fat old and out of work, in a local tavern, before you’d have a chance to confront him, argue, denigrate his football skills, and then have him threaten your life. Today, that can all happen in 15-20 seconds on Twitter. The efficiency of it all just amazes me. #goldenage

@JosinaAnderson
The #Browns have waived S Jermaine Whitehead.

Pretty sure he just ended his pro career.
He's had stops in SF, GB, BAL, and CLE...and now this.

[pbmax]

@jasonjwilde
Really intelligent guy. Not being facetious. That's what makes him so hard to understand. Similar issue with the #Packers. Smart guy doing something just so foolish to jeopardize his NFL career. I don't get it.

[hoosier]

What Jason Wilde is forgetting is that social media is not an intelligence friendly space. It's more like the unconscious, where things have a way of following their own logic. So Whitehead is a marginal player, always on the cusp, who had just gotten abused and exposed. His NFL career was probably flashing before his eyes as soon as Fant ran him over. Someone then reminded the world of his undignified moment in a very public way. And he overreacted in the way that insecurity often does. Not such a big mystery. Or if you want a mystery, it would be do you bring a phone to the game at all. Leave it at home for when the sting wears off.

[pbmax]

This looks like it happened at home (7:49 PM). But I agree about the rest. I think Wilde would too. He's just pointing out that Whitehead at other times appeared much smarter than this.

[hoosier]

I thought I read that his Twitter timestamp was right after the game. If he took it home with him and then started spewing, then yeah, the crime of passion defense is not as compelling.

Could have been the Re tweet at that time.

Just because he's smart, doesn't mean he can't make stupid decisions.

[pbmax]

Just because he's smart, doesn't mean he can't make stupid decisions.

And Wilde seemed to be hinting it wasn't the first he was aware of. I suspect he meant more than poorly timed personal fouls?

[Fritz]

Should change his name to Jermaine Dumbhead.

[RashanGary]

I’m waiting for the inactive list, of both DTs are out for Chargers, imma bet on Raiders. Raiders have really good run game and short passing game. Perfect matchup against Chargers. Black hole....... Chargers coming off convincing win vs Packers so odds went toward them.

Just think it’s a good upset tonight (injuries pending)

[Fritz]

After the Lions' defense suffered another shellacking, Matt Patricia made clear that Paul Pasqua-ever was in charge of the defense and calling all the defenses. This seems a certain prelude to Pasqua-ever being fired if the Bears score more than 17 points.

[RashanGary]

Going differently and better than I hoped. But I’ll take lucky bets cuz I gotta take the unlucky ones too.

[RashanGary]

On a short week, I just expected the raiders offense to match up perfectly vs Chargers defense..... I didn’t expect 10 points on turnovers, but I’ll take it.

[mraynrand]

SD defense stifling 2nite as well.

[mraynrand]

Gosh, getting the ball out quick to a running back can defeat an aggressive pass rush. Who woulda thunk it?

[pbmax]

Gosh, getting the ball out quick to a running back can defeat an aggressive pass rush. Who woulda thunk it?

Wait, I thought you wanted to run the ball?

[mraynrand]

Wait, I thought you wanted to run the ball?

That too. (And the Raiders ran well too). You gotta defeat the track meet to the QB and that RB is the guy to do it. Somehow they forgot about him Sunday.

[MadtownPacker]

Carr just said Chargers D did the same to them as the Packers! Haha!

For those that don’t know Carr is or at least was a Packers fan. He was often shown with his Favre jersey on when he was a boy at his brothers Fresno St games. Yes that is why he is #4 now.

Raiders they have Derek Carr,
Guess he’s gonna be a Favre.
Baby they have Derek Carr
And Baby, Just win then.

[mraynrand]

I told the coach I could throw right away,
But Gruden he had something to say.
Throwing deep shots is all very fine,
But I can show you a better scheme.

Baby use the running back,
Slows down the pass rush attack,
Short passes to the running back,
And Baby just win then.

[Fritz]

As bad as the Packers played - they looked flatter than pancake - The Flower was equally culpable for not doing more to subvert that pass rush. The screens are still a work in progress, and The Flower forgot about the run game.

[pbmax]

They literally reacted in the worst way to speed pass rush. As KYP said, they were so afraid* of the guy getting to the edge with speed, they left the inside lane open.

You have to shut that inside down on both sides, short set in the middle and have Rodgers step up. You can also then draw them to death with an inside handoff off the Guard.

Boo Packers. Boo.


*should have said a-feared.

[Fritz]

I kept waiting for that. Rodgers seemed to be getting better at doing that sort of thing, but it didn't happen in that Charger game. I think I remember a few screen attempts, but those take longer to set up than a bad joke.

Didn't Rodgers do this against Kansas City?

[Cheesehead Craig]

*should have said a-feared.

Careful, that new moderator will catch you for language like this.

[mraynrand]

Didn't Rodgers do this against Kansas City?

Approx 20 runs for 100 yards, 10 passes to RBs for 170.

[RashanGary]

I bet on chiefs+6.5 over titans this week.

[yetisnowman]

Jeff Driskell starting for the Lions today. Kind of amazing being a Florida fan. Will Muschamp had Brissett and Driskel and couldn't get competent qb play or playing time out of either of them.

[RashanGary]

Lions/Bears some ugly football right now.

[pbmax]

Falcons going to win this game on penalties. 3 hands to face so far. DPI just put them inside the 10.

2 first downs by penalties.

[RashanGary]

I like James Lofton, Dan Fouts, Romo and Collinsworth as color guys

[RashanGary]

I don’t really care about the play by play but I guess I’d take Nantz cuz he’s cool or Tirico because he’s so detailed and thorough.

[RashanGary]

Lofton and Fouts are the funniest. I’d take them

[RashanGary]

Mike Daniels sack. He looks good. Took him most of the year to get healthy, but he’d sure be a luxury piece right now. I think Gute shoulda kept Daniels and let Graham go, but it wasn’t a horrible move for a guy who’s only healthy for half the season

[RashanGary]

It’s really hard to believe how bad Trubisky is. Just wow.

[RashanGary]

Fouts just said, “I almost feel like Nagy could put the card down when he calls plays. What’s he hiding, really?”

LMFAO!!! He’s just trolling bear fans :lol:

[RashanGary]

I think they should have zero play by play guys. Just Lofton and Fouts talking shit all game

[esoxx]

It’s really hard to believe how bad Trubisky is. Just wow.

Two nice TD throws today though.

Just way too inconsistent.

[RashanGary]

Two nice TD throws today though.

Just way too inconsistent.

He flashed today. First time in a while.... hmmmm

[RashanGary]

Lions coached a horrible game and I don’t usually say that. 4th and a half yard at the 50 and they were moving the ball the whole first quarter and they punted. They played not to lose today. They deserve to lose. Which is annoying cuz I had them as part of a 5 way parlay that was falling my way. That’s what I get for betting before the final injury updates.

[RashanGary]

Patrick Mahomes wears a tailbone pad that looks like a diaper. I feel enraged when I see him.

[RashanGary]

22-20 with 12 minutes left. Chiefs have ball. Touchdown wins it for me. Go diaper butt!!

[Anti-Polar Bear]

Told y'all, the Packers shoulda signed Younghoe Koo. 4/4 today.

I support NFL oddities.

[pbmax]

Falcons going to win this game on penalties. 3 hands to face so far. DPI just put them inside the 10.

2 first downs by penalties.

Up to 11 NO penalties. 4 of them hands to the face. At least 3 first downs by penalty.

[RashanGary]

[RashanGary]

Daniels injured again. Gute back in good graces

You spelled engorged wrong.

[Anti-Polar Bear]

Up to 11 NO penalties. 4 of them hands to the face. At least 3 first downs by penalty.

Zebras are active today, but Brees has gotta be sacked 30 times already.

The Asian Kicker is 3/3, not 4/4. And he saved a touchdown.

[Anti-Polar Bear]

??

The NFL is racist. I wish there's an Asian RB, White corner, Black kicker, et al., in the league.

[RashanGary]

Awful gambling week for me. Lions destroyed a beautiful parlay I had. And diaper butt Mahomes and company couldn’t beat the tannenhill Titans by 7.

Yuck.

[pbmax]

Zebras are active today, but Brees has gotta be sacked 30 times already.

He’s 4/4 now

[pbmax]

Saints and Packers have a lot in common.

[pbmax]

Inside pressure kills QBs. Saints were missing a good Guard.

[Fosco33]

Rams/Steelers are more than a Q behind Dolphins/Colts.

[Rastak]

Rams go down.

[Fosco33]

Would’ve been a tough week of pickem. Bills, saints, chiefs, Colts are all ‘upsets’.

[Rastak]

Slightly tricky catch...lol.....

[beveaux1]

Cook is a great RB. He's got it all. Absolutely elite.

[Rastak]

Cook is a great RB. He's got it all. Absolutely elite.

Well rounded and really quick.


edit: Rookie Madison ain't bad either.

[RashanGary]

Nice to see Saints lose one. If we beat SF next week, gonna start thinking about fighting for a 1 seed

[RashanGary]

Boy oh Boy, cowboys got no answer for cook

[Rastak]

Another lame ass roughing the passer.

[pittstang5]

Cowboy defense looks like the Packers defense = putrid.

[MadtownPacker]

Two weeks mofo. You locals need to tell the police not to be arresting players for petty shit.

[Rastak]

The Broken Back Mountain dance by Quinn.

[pbmax]

Resolved: the Cowboys just stink.

[Rastak]

Resolved: the Cowboys just stink.


Alternatively, the Vikings are better than they have shown........I fucking hope anyway.....

[Rastak]

Nice catch by Cooper.

[RashanGary]

Cowboys getting it together. Need a stop here. Play the run hard. Get them to 3rd and long.

[RashanGary]

This is the time to get the Vikings, without Theilen. Cowboys need to put it together and play their best game right now.

[Rastak]

This is the time to get the Vikings, without Theilen. Cowboys need to put it together and play their best game right now.

They are in a tough race, they need a home win for sure......hope they go home disappointed.

[esoxx]

Alternatively, the Vikings are better than they have shown........I fucking hope anyway.....

Not really. They still have a QB issue.

[Rastak]

Looks like he's throwing a pass and his arm got hit but the NFL does what it wants to.

[Rastak]

Not really. They still have a QB issue.


He's actually in the MVP race believe or not. I don't believe it but it's true....he's got solid Vegas odds.

[RashanGary]

Zeke is slower than the other top backs. Cook, McCaffrey, Barkley all faster

[Rastak]

Girls got a good offensive line though.....

[RashanGary]

I made a small bet on Dallas. I’m feeling better than 45 minutes ago, but Dallas is disappointing me overall.

[Rastak]

I made a small bet on Dallas. I’m feeling better than 45 minutes ago, but Dallas is disappointing me overall.


I'm not sold on them at this point.

[Rastak]

One helluva catch by Cobb.

[RashanGary]

Dime by Dak

[gbgary]

agent cobb comes through for us.

[pbmax]

Mina Kimes

Atlanta's record before signing Younghoe Koo: 1-7

Atlanta's record since: 1-0

Speaks for itself.

[RashanGary]

Nice catch by Diggs

[esoxx]

Refs are obviously blind.

[RashanGary]

If the Packers, 49ers and Saints all finish 13-3

(Assuming 49ers beat saints and Packers beat 49ers)

We do have a reasonable shot at a 1 seed still

[Rastak]

Not sure of that decision.

[RashanGary]

If we beat the 49ers in two weeks, we have the Giants, Redskins, Bears, Lions and Vikings.....

We could lose to the Vikings on the road and still have a shot at a 1 or 2 seed.

[RashanGary]

That 49er game tomorrow is lining up to be a big one. Seattle has a legitimate top tier offense. I’m curious to see how the SF defense holds up. If they dominate Seattle, I’ll start worrying .

[Zool]

Fuck it’s annoying rooting for a Cowboys win. A 2 game lead would be fantastic though.

[Rastak]

Fuck it’s annoying rooting for a Cowboys win. A 2 game lead would be fantastic though.

Yea, ya gotta root for them but I'd also be barfing the entire time were I in your shoes.

[RashanGary]

Fuck it’s annoying rooting for a Cowboys win. A 2 game lead would be fantastic though.

Once the 49er game is over, we’re gonna start eyeing up the NFC and thinking about possibilities.

[RashanGary]

I really hope SF loses tomorrow so we can do into that SF game playing for the 1 seed!

[RashanGary]

Cousins lacking in redzone here

[Rastak]

Cousins lacking in redzone here


He had some really shit stuff there. The one he threw away, Bisi was open right there.....that's simply rushing shit because of preasure. Which I get in a sense.....Vikings were down 2 OL.

[Zool]

Yea, ya gotta root for them but I'd also be barfing the entire time were I in your shoes.

Maybe a tie?

[pittstang5]

That 49er game tomorrow is lining up to be a big one. Seattle has a legitimate top tier offense. I’m curious to see how the SF defense holds up. If they dominate Seattle, I’ll start worrying .

Seattle's o line is not good, SF is going to wreck that line. Wilson is the x-factor, but I think SF will contain them. They've had extra time. If I were a betting man, I'd take SF.

[Rastak]

Nice catch again by Cooper....crazy....


edit: Could have been a push off but it was close.

[RashanGary]

Uh oh Vikings! But I need a 4 point victory. Come on Dallas! Make this dumb guy look smart this week and leave the week ahead a little bit.

[Zool]

Umm Collinsworth is bad at math. He just said that the ball was thrown 3 yards outside the boundary.

[RashanGary]

Nice catch again by Cooper....crazy....

Cooper is one of those 10 or 15 true number one guys. I’d take cooper over either Theilen or Diggs, but there is a certain charm in have two of them plus Cook.

[Rastak]

Cooper is one of those 10 or 15 true number one guys. I’d take cooper over either Theilen or Diggs, but there is a certain charm in have two of them plus Cook.


Yea, maybe. All three are good.

[Rastak]

That fucking rookie is pretty damn good.

[Cheesehead Craig]

Just ran over Dallas on that drive. Wow.

[Rastak]

Just ran over Dallas on that drive. Wow.


I think he was just short....sneak it.

[Rastak]

Good call actually.

[Rastak]

You stupid motherfucker.....

[Cheesehead Craig]

You stupid motherfucker.....

Well fuck you too. Lol

[Rastak]

Go for it....

[Cheesehead Craig]

Easy

[Rastak]

Easy


Odd call but it worked and a nice 2 pt conversion.

[RashanGary]

Minnesota seems to get more bad calls than Packers this year

[Rastak]

Seemed like a lame call.

[RashanGary]

Zeke has not impressed me this year

[RashanGary]

Damn, cowboys should be running screens. Minnesota just teeing off

[RashanGary]

That made up for it. Coulda called that one

[Rastak]

That made up for it. Coulda called that one

Agree.

[RashanGary]

Dallas defense needs a damn stop, for 1. For two, they need to be running some offensive plays to put those pass rushers off balance. Can’t just line up and make your tackles go one on one as much as they are

[RashanGary]

D Lawrence a really good player

[RashanGary]

Vikings outplaying Dallas. Yuck!

[Rastak]

D Lawrence a really good player


He is.

[RashanGary]

Dallas defense is really blah. Minnesota is good, but Dallas should be able to get a stop or two.

[RashanGary]

For as much as everyone complains about our defense.... the Dallas defense is clearly worse

[RashanGary]

I would say Packers and Vikings have similar quality defenses. Vikings are better between the 20s when their experience in the back end helps them make better decisions. In the redzone, the Packers young playmakers can take more risks and the Packers play better in the redzone.

[RashanGary]

Packer fans bitch and bitch about our defense, but it’s a top redzone defense for sure and shows splashes that make you think they can do it between the 20s too. Just slight improvement in guys taking the right chances at the right times.

[Rastak]

Nice hands to the face call assholes....good play by Dak.

[Rastak]

Alcoa fantastic finishes...similar to your game.

[RashanGary]

Vikings better start calling time outs. I actually want them to tie with a field goal so the Cowboys can win the coin toss and then score a TD and I win my small bet and the Vikings lose :)

[Rastak]

What the fuck was that call?

[call_me_ishmael]

Zimmer is wasting his clock because he is thinks his D is gonna hold. Not a bet I'd take.

[RashanGary]

Dallas playing to milk clock and Minny playing to win on D.

I’d call screen. Minny gonna be coming

[Rastak]

Turns it over...!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[call_me_ishmael]

Dak is gonna drop back and run for the 1st down here. Take it to the bank.

[RashanGary]

Dallas deserved that. Wow. Can’t believe they let it get to 4th and 5 and didn’t take any chances sooner. They played more to drain the clock than win the game. Shocking

[RashanGary]

Dallas was more concerned with the clock than the endzone. They don’t deserve to win

[RashanGary]

Punt block

[Rastak]

Tight game....

[call_me_ishmael]

Wow, how do you make that pass with that pocket and those wheels? Dak panicked.

[RashanGary]

What the flying fixk was that

[RashanGary]

Get 10 quick ones

[Cheesehead Craig]

Game over.

[RashanGary]

Dallas fonna have to get some good pass pro right now

[Rastak]

Don't mention Drew Pearson you piece of shit.

[call_me_ishmael]

Jason Garrett is the only bad thing about the cowboys. Gotta wonder if they put in a call to Big Mike this off-season. I hope they don't.

Dak is not much above average. No way I'd make him a top 5 comp'd QB.

[RashanGary]

Wow, Dallas is stupid. They ran the clock out instead of trying to score. Holy shit. Not against the Vikings. Too good of defense. You just have to score

[texaspackerbacker]

All the years of negativity about Jason Garrett, and I've been for him the whole time, but he fucked up big time last night.

[Teamcheez1]

This season shows why you don't pay big money for running backs. Ezekiel Elliot and Todd Gurley both look mediocre at best.
Who will be the next RB overpaid by a team?

[Joemailman]

Following the 2020 season, the following players are set to become UFA's:

LeonardFournette
Christian McCaffrey
Dalvin Cook
Joe Mixon
Alvin Kamara
James Conner
Aaron Jones
Chris Carson

[pbmax]

@ESPNStatsInfo
The 1-7 Falcons won
The 1-7 Jets won
The 1-7 Dolphins won

This is the 5th week in the Super Bowl era (excluding the strike-shortened 1982 season) where 3 teams with 1 win-or-fewer won in Week 10-or-later and the first time since Week 10 in 2013.

And all of them cost me in the Confidence Poll AND the Loser/Suicide Pool I am in.

[texaspackerbacker]

Following the 2020 season, the following players are set to become UFA's:

LeonardFournette
Christian McCaffrey
Dalvin Cook
Joe Mixon
Alvin Kamara
James Conner
Aaron Jones
Chris Carson

Basic economics: all that supply ought to drive down the price - not to mention the Law of Diminishing Returns. Maybe we can keep Aaron Jones into his second contract.

[RashanGary]

Seattle wins tonight and we’re playing for who has control of the 1 seed in two weeks

[RashanGary]

Seattle needs a good long drive that finishes with 7 and I like their chances.

[RashanGary]

Who looks like more of a pussy, Kylie Shannahan or thafloweur?

[RashanGary]

Frustrating. It’s like Seattle wants to lose. They hate me

[MadtownPacker]

Seattle wins tonight and we’re playing for who has control of the 1 seed in two weeksPussy talk. I want them undefeated so the Pack knocks them off first. Then they can slide.


To be the best you gotta beat the best. Tell me it won’t be sweet to see the Pack give a 10-0 team their first loss.

[MadtownPacker]

Who looks like more of a pussy, Kylie Shannahan or thafloweur?
A Packers fan hoping Pete Carroll takes care of business for his team.

[ThunderDan]

A horrible roughing call.

[RashanGary]

A Packers fan hoping Pete Carroll takes care of business for his team.

:lol:

You bet on sf, didn’t you?

[RashanGary]

Little Kylie Shinanigan having a tough night. Might need to have his mangina tore up to relax him after the game.

[MadtownPacker]

:lol:

You bet on sf, didn’t you?Fuck no. Niners are enemy #1 in my area as far as I’m concerned. If I had bet I would stay away from this game because the 8-0 has come mostly against weak teams IMO.

[RashanGary]

Bretsky isn’t hear to call our guys Martha and flower and sherry Gary.... someone needs to keep the party alive while bretsky hibernates through the wins. I’ll chill out after a loss because bretsky will arrive to pick up where he left off.

[Gotarace]

Hawks are punching the in the mouth...

[ThunderDan]

What the hell was that. Awesome D to get ball and score TD for 49ers.

[Gotarace]

Hawks are punching the in the mouth...

[ThunderDan]

24 facemasked Wilson on the sack.

[pbmax]

D Randall lays the wood. Ankle biter was never afraid to tackle people so the only thing surprising is that HE didn't get the concussion. Video at link.


https://twitter.com/jasonjwilde/status/1195184767056187394

[pbmax]

Randall ejected for that hit, which apparently was helmet to helmet. NY Called it in as he was just flagged by game officials for defenseless receiver hit.

Burnett with nice play here, but later he comes out after an Achilles injury. https://twitter.com/Nate_Tice/status/1195168582994296833

[RashanGary]

Browns offense looking better all of a sudden. I’ll be curious to see them next year. They still need OL and defense.

[pbmax]

https://twitter.com/NFL/status/1195194010173767680

Joe Schobert with INT by simply recognizing the patterns being run. Steelers drawing ILBs toward the hook/shallow crossing route while other receiver runs a dig (deep in).

Explanation: https://twitter.com/ZachSDunn/status/1195195357443100672

[MadtownPacker]

Wow that was fucked up and weak of the browns defender. Forget the suspension that merits an arrest and banning from the league. He got him with the visor side so hopefully Rudolph is Ok.

[call_me_ishmael]

Yeah that was pretty fucked up. Dude is a goon, plain and simple. Didn't he pull a dirty tackle on Big Ben last year?

Frankly, I'm surprised by how noodle dicked the Steelers response was. Yo' ass isn't getting suspended for retailiating against a dude who just committed assault with a deadly weapon.

These homeboys need to lay off the 'roids.

[Anti-Polar Bear]

Nice to see Pouncy go after Garrett after the hamlet assault. Made it NOT a race thing. Rudolf sounds Nazi.

Moral of the story, don’t fuck with da poet OLB.

No I keed. Gotta be Gandhi peaceful, yo.

[call_me_ishmael]

You don't want to fuck with a Pouncey. Those are some bad dudes. They used to roll with Hernandez.


Damarious Randall ejected after delivering a helmet-to-helmet hit.

Another goon. What sort of a culture is Dorsey running over there? Between these two goons and his past record with Tyreek Hill, I sure am glad he's not the Packers GM despite his obvious eye for talent.

[Harlan Huckleby]

It was ugly, but jeez, it got me to thinking about hockey in the 1970s. Much worse brawls in many games. Sticks used as clubs, heads pounded on ice. And that was just during the national anthem.

[Cheesehead Craig]

Garrett's gone for the season, has to be. I wouldn't be surprised if it's a full 16 game suspension. I wonder what the Browns do about him.

[pbmax]

Garrett's gone for the season, has to be. I wouldn't be surprised if it's a full 16 game suspension. I wonder what the Browns do about him.

A good lesson in why escalation is a bad idea.

Also a good lesson that the visual will win out. No one will ever forget him swinging that helmet down like a hammer.

Pouncey should be suspended for the year too even if I doubt the player noticed him.

Garrett obviously needs to go, but anyone else suspect Rudolph is a jack wagon? Just on the basis of his reaction to the sack?

[Joemailman]

Garrett's gone for the season, has to be. I wouldn't be surprised if it's a full 16 game suspension. I wonder what the Browns do about him.

This has to be about as bad as it gets from the NFL's perspective. They have 2 items on their safety agenda. Protect quarterbacks, and reduce concussions. So ripping off a QB's helmet and hitting him over the head with it is pretty incredible. That said, Rudolf was not an innocent victim here. There could be discipline against him too.

So ripping off a QB's helmet and hitting him over the head with it is pretty incredible. That said, Rudolf was not an innocent victim here. There could be discipline against him too.

Should be definitely. Not Garrett or Pouncey level, but something stiff.

Replying to I’ll give him credit. Usually players try to punch other players that still have a helmet on. Garrett playing 4D chess

[Harlan Huckleby]

I think Garrett's helmet swing was bad but not impeachable.

I guess I would see it differently if it were a bit more successful, but the QB was laughing about it a few minutes later. Boys will be boys. Two-game suspension for going nuts.

There is padding that often overlaps the rim of the helmet opening. So its possible he knew what he was doing. But it should looked like he wanted to brain him. Can't let that go. He has to be out for the year.

Joe Buck was on the call last night. So his Randy Moss call now looks even dumber.

Pouncey will be gone for a few games too. Can't throw punches and kick a guy. Plus, I wonder if Rudolph will get something given he kept going after Garrett.

I doubt it. Guy picked him up by his helmet.

I take it back. I re-watched it today. Rudolph almost had Garretts helmet off long before Garrett pulled on Rudolph's facemask. 2 stupid people being stupid.

[RashanGary]

Really glad to hear people here not overreacting. I shut it off just before that but watched it this morning. Whatever. Not ideal, but in the realm of fired up human emotional reaction when playing a gladiator sport but trying to do it in a civilized manner.

He wasn’t going to brain him with one hit with a big round plastic helmet :lol:

But it could have hurt. Definitely could have hurt.

[RashanGary]

I’m ok if they suspended him the rest of this year, but beyond that I’d be really, really disappointed. In an ideal world, you just have a heart to heart and see if you trust him and then let him back right away but this world is far from ideal

Yep. Rudolph needs to be taken down too. Fine, suspension or both, needs to be docked.

[call_me_ishmael]

Pouncey should be suspended for the year too even if I doubt the player noticed him.

Meh, I think he was completely justified and frankly kept his cool. He could have ripped Garrett's helmet off and gone at him.


Garrett obviously needs to go, but anyone else suspect Rudolph is a jack wagon? Just on the basis of his reaction to the sack?

Though it's possible, I would argue there's no reason to suspect that. Garrett is a dirty player. There a lots of clips of him lingerie post sack, hitting late, etc. He clearly lingered on that tackle before going off.

Works if you are the parent. But in a world of professional competitors, it will escalate unless there is a downside.

If he had hit him with the crown, Garrett would be in police custody today. Those helmets are heavy and strong.

In all from the NFL:
— #Browns DE Myles Garrett suspended without pay indefinitely, at least the rest of the season.
— #Steelers OL Maurkice Pouncey suspended 3 games and fined
— #Browns DL Larry Ogunjobi suspended one game and fined.
— Other players involved may be fined.

[yetisnowman]

3 games for Pouncey is bullshit. He punched and kicked Garrett's head with the helmet on. Guy just committed aggravated assault on his qb. It was seconds later. Teammates should be expected to defend each other in that way when an opposing player goes psychotic. Small fine. That's all.

[Harlan Huckleby]

Maybe in worst case.

But we're splitting hairs: it was a cowardly, punk ass move. I can't make a good argument against a full year suspension. It's about like the Charles Martin incident.

[RashanGary]

I think the NFL is part of the CIA MK Ultra mind control project to keep the sheeple obedient and in line with the system that milks them like cattle in stalls.

The rules are such a part of the game because they like people to see.... “oh, look at the horrors that could be if you didn’t have the protectors here to keep you safe.”

And the sheeple stay babies, and obediently submit to the protectors

Myles Garrett, 2019 dirty plays

Week 1: Punched Titans TE Delanie Walker after whistle

Week 2: Ended Jets QB Trevor Siemian's season on late hit

Week 11: Struck Steelers QB Mason Rudolph over head with helmet

Guys a loose Cannon and hope the NFL get's him some Mental Health Help also.

[RashanGary]

i saw Sitton take his helmet off and bash poppinga over the head 6 times with it at TC. But Poppinga still had his on. No punishment.

[Joemailman]

What a disaster this game was for the 2 teams:

Browns:

Garrett suspended indefinitely
Ogunjobi suspended 1 game
Morgan Burnett may be out for year with achilles injury.
Randall ejected for helmet to helmet hit. Can't rule out a suspension

Steelers:

Pouncey suspended 3 games
Smith-Schuster suffered a concussion
James Conner reinjured AC joint that had kept him out of 2 previous games.

Garrett was lucky he didn't connect with a more solid part of the helmet. Dude is big, very strong, and those helmets can give/take a lot of damage. He's done for the year for sure.
I didn't see the CLE as a having much playoff hope, I think this will sink them.

Pouncey should get 3 games, wouldn't be surprised if he appeals it down to 2. Kicking a dude in the head when he's down is not cool. Remember Suh stomping Dietrich-Smith? Plus, precedent has shown that throwing a closed fist punch is gonna be at least a 1 game suspension.

Rudolph should get suspended too -- the hit on him by Garrett was late and unnecessary, but so was going after his helmet like that. He more or less escalated things by doing that, and then went after Garrett like a dumbass after DeCastro got between them. Walk away, the game is over.

By the way, I think DeCastro did the correct thing by basically taking down Garrett and laying on him IMO vs. punching/kicking him like Pouncey. You gotta protect your QB, but with how the league cracks down on this stuff, throwing punches is dumb.

There were some really ugly hits in this game and I think it boiled over in a bad way. The hit on JuJu was bad, and the hit by Randall on Johnson that caused a concussion/visible ear bleeding was scary. You could hear the helmets crack...I'd be pissed if Eddie Jackson did that to a Packer receiver. That was an ugly game and a nationally televised eyesore for the NFL.

Apparently youth participation in football is down in many states, not sure this is going to help change that.

I always found that fight disturbing. Some people claim that punch almost killed Tomjanovich.

[MadtownPacker]

If he had hit him with the crown, Garrett would be in police custody today. Those helmets are heavy and strong.That what I saw also. The only reason he hit him with that part was because of how he held it. Flipped around would have been much more crushing. You can see Rudolph’s neck compress a bit. Even looked like he was trying to stretch his neck to the side after.

As for Rudolph’s behavior. I saw it live and replay showed Garrett mugging him on the ground first well after the takedown and appeared he was talking shit. Rudolph’s helmet pull was in a get the fuck off me way. After that is was brawl time. I don’t see why Rudolph coming for his helmet is an issue.

As for the stomping on Garrett, you whackasses would be cheering if someone did that for Rodgers. I would too.

Typically while calming down so likely a nerves thing.

[MadtownPacker]

Garrett's gone for the season, has to be. I wouldn't be surprised if it's a full 16 game suspension. I wonder what the Browns do about him.Those here saying this is too harsh just need to think what they would say if it was Rodgers.

There could be discipline against him too.The mofo was on top of him and not letting up so don’t see why Rudolph would get anything more then a fine. It would be different if they both had been standing up actively engaging. But it looked like Garrett was trash talking and holding him down. Seemed more defensive to me.

I was one of those "uncool Pack fans" back then hahahaha. I hated that long haired loud mouth punk, McMahon. I'm trying to imagine what I'd be saying now if I was a Browns fan - maybe something like no harm no foul or Rudolph had it coming or whatever. I'm not saying that, though, because I'm certainly not a Browns fan.

[Cheesehead Craig]

NFL did the indefinite suspension to send a message about the severity but also not to pin themselves into a specific number. He'll be gone the rest of the season and then he can talk to the league in the offseason about coming back (and doing some anger management counseling or such). This way the NFL shows they are serious about player safety and at the same time show the Player's Union that they are willing to listen to players and not be so rigid.

[esoxx]

I remember Mean Joe Greene ripped a helmet off an offensive lineman he was engaged with and then swung it at him. Not sure if it connected or not. Didn't even draw a flag :lol:

Depends on the damages and the witnesses. If there is video I suspect they would be hearing from somebody. But we are not talking about people going about their personal lives at a private business.

You can't commit a flagrant personal foul after the whistle in the game and not get dinged for it. Otherwise Belichick will coach it.

You have had a weird interest in and soft spot for women beaters over the years. Is this where it stems from ? Your sister kicking your ass?
