Hitting a player in the head with the helmet you took off of him is one of the few things that may warrant a lifetime ban... And it's so stupid because the game was over and your team won. Just walk away at that point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The NFL is at an all time low for me. The referees alone make it hard to enjoy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree with this. It’s gotten so bad that I’ve watched less and less football over the last couple years. This year being the least of all. I used to buy Sunday ticket and watch as much as possible. Haven’t bought that the last two years. The Monday and Thursday games have been terrible for the most part this year. My interest is declining by the week Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ESPN is the biggest peddler of rumors, only possibly surpassed by Pro Football Talk before their alignment with NBC. 9 hours ago, Rileyrott said: No comments about the ending of this game? Really?? Man...this place is going downhill................... I was on another board discussing it, also with my 3 brothers by text who were watching the game along with me. I'll pop over to the new thread at some point and express by opinion which won't jive with the media/Browns hating/Steeler loving masses who want Garrett banned for life, prosecuted for assault while Pouncey and Rudolph get no punishment.

Def. Posted November 15, 2019 Share Posted November 15, 2019 I'll be honest, I don't think it's that big of a deal. Don't know what the hell Rudolph was trying to do to Garrett's head but he obviously didn't like it. Then while angry he's getting (appropriately) pushed away by an opposing lineman to see the guy he's having a problem with start to rush him, yep that's when bad decisions are made. Sure go ahead and suspend him for a game/two or whatever, but seems a little overblown to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People would be singing a different tune if he connected squarely and knocked him out cold. Regardless of who started it, finishing it especially in that fashion was horrible. ROS suspension at the least. Bad decisions have consequences. Assault with a weapon with intent to do bodily harm. Earlier in pregame they were discussions about Steve Young and running QBs safety. Stated how the new NFL players are all about being safe with each other not wanting to harm. Be physical, but understanding everyone livelihood. Certain not in this game. NFL did not need this situation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

seahawk3133 Posted November 15, 2019 Share Posted November 15, 2019 The NFL is like having a brother who becaame a junkie. You can't fully give up it but it frustrates you and you aren't as close as you once were Five years ago - I paid for NFL ticket, had 3 TVs set-up in my living room every Sunday, was in 3 fantasy leagues where entry fees totaled over $1000 a year & occasionally bet on a game Now - 2 years of barely watching - back in a little as they gave me free NFL ticket... Just in a $100 entry fantasy league and haven't made a bet in 5 years Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree with this as well as the post it was referring to, specifically the Thursday night games. (Thanksgiving..YES there should be games, its a tradition that many families enjoy, although 3 games is too much for me, by the time the last game starts I'm basically in a turkey coma). I don't know how far back you guys go but remember the "old days" when you had 2 time slots on Sunday and then Monday night which made the prime time game a huge deal. Hell, as a Pat's fan, prior to Coach Parcells and QB Bledsoe I remember a lot of games were blacked out, meaning not televised locally because they didn't sell out the stadium. When they were on we sure did appreciate watching those games. I know way off topic but it's become almost too much of a good thing...if that makes any sense Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
