Watched a lot of replays this morning. Garret should rightfully be suspended. That said, Mason Rudolph is a little bitch who deserved what he got. Instigated the whole thing by trying to rip of Garrets helmet and kicked him in the nuts.
I turned it off after the Browns scored their last TD so I was a little surprised by my FB feed this morning to say the least lol.
Dunno what Garrett was thinking. The silver lining was his swung the open end at him. If he hit him with the top of the helmet it probably would have killed Rudolph and that's not being dramatic. The force he swung with was insane. So.. not sure what Garrett was thinking, but he'll probably have some time to think about it now.
posted by like_thatVery selfish by Garret, but at the same time that franchise has been getting away with cheap shots at the browns (and other teams) for over a decade and their fans celebrate it as steel city “tough.” So fuck them if they are going to cry about Garret. Everyone involved should be suspended. It should be two games max for Garret if they are going by the Suh standards. It should two games reduced to one for good behavior if they are going by Steelers standards.
Personally for me the only regret is it wasn’t rapistberger and preferably it wasn’t an impact player like Garret. Other than that the Steelers can go fuck themselves.
Pretty dumb to go after the best Browns player last night

As a pretty unbiased Bengals guy....aren’t you glad it wasn’t the Bengals and Steelers doing that shit to each other? If the Steelers had 3 helmet to helmet hits on the Bengals or even the Browns and then tried to kill the opposing QB...I wouldn’t be able to be on the internet today.
Myles Garret, welcome to POS status 👏

Unfortunately, the league is a much different place than when James Harrison & Joey Porter were the "Vontaze Burfict's" of the league. Ask Colt McCoy, Cribbs & MoMass about Harrison.
There has actually been a precedent for what happened last night in that a Houston player ripped off Richie Incognito's helmet, swung it and hit him in the face. The Texans player (Smith) got 3 games. I'm sure Garrett's punishment will be more severe in that a) it was a QB and b) said QB suffered a brutal concussion earlier in the year and had Garrett hit him just right, could've killed him.
I predict Garrett's done for the year, Pouncey with 2-3 games, Rudolph with 1 game (which Steeler fans will likely rejoice at since he's putrid garbage/Brandon Weeden 2.0 minus the arm strength) and Ogunjobi with a fine.

Best Browns player is Nick Chubb.
“Cowardly & BushLeague” from the dude that started it?? Really?? & did he say “Bitch” while trying to get up? 3 Steelers 1 Brown, QB being Aggro....played badly, fought worse!

So....a QB forgot he was...QB & got jacked with his own helmet cause he couldn’t get the other guys’ helmet off... I wonder what & who the commentator thought was Barbaric? #rhetoricalquestionfornoparticularreason

Speaking of Harrison, he was tweeting about how it was assault and how Myles should be in jail. LOL

Just a bad look all around. Rudolph probably shouldn’t have 5 tackles and probably should really mess with Garret. Not sure what he thought he was going to do.
Will either player be playing the next matchup?
I was excited for rematch but not now...it’ll just be cheap shot after cheap shot and already watched a decade of that with Bengals/Steelers

Probably Schobert

I was listening to NFL network radio this morning and whoever the hosts were - Charlie Weiss I think is one of them - were saying how undisciplined the Browns are and this is their culture and bashing Kitchens for having no control. Idk that I agree with all of that but there was certainly a time that was the Bengals reputation so I'm glad that torched has been passed. Except now instead of being the winning, dirty team we're on the verge of going 0-16. Yay.

I think it was just the culmination of playing like absolute shit on the road against a rival and dealing a huge blow to your playoff chances. But no excuse to fuck with Garrett. Play stupid games win stupid prizes.
Saw a video clip where the steeler players used the word "bully" to describe the actions of Garrett. Really? You play a game where they pay you to be physically violent. GTFOH with the "bully" word.
Rudolph started it. Garrett deserves the rest of the season.
Suspended indefinitely, at least the rest of the season.
How long did Ray Lewis get suspended for murder?
Rudolph out reast of season too. I didn't see that coming.
How does Rudolph not get a fine and/or suspension and Larry gets one game for just pushing him in the back? Rudolph attempted to rip helmet off Myles.
