2019 NFL Season

Damn I got no voice left what a game!

[Quest4Nes | 376]

49ers need to stop rotating backs every series. Why pay tevin coleman 5 million a year to not play in overtime. He just dominated at the last drive of the 4th and never sees the field again

Hell yeah, I knew the 9ers couldn't beat Seattle

Any given Sunday.  Er, Monday.

Niners were missing Kittle and Robbie G. Emmanuel Sanders went out in the the first couple drives. We weren't perfect and neither were the Suckhawks it'll be interesting to see what happens when we play them again. Also, Jadaveon Clowney was the real MVP of that game.

 

Great game though for sure.

 

NINERSSSSSS!!!!

Rest of season minimum.   He's damn lucky that didn't do any damage.

If that helmet doesn’t turn on the way  and it hits him with the crown of the helmet instead of the bottom, it could’ve killed him.

EXACTLY RIGHT!  Noticed that too after about the 20th time I watched it.  I have to say it was hilarious though when Rudolph got knocked down the 2nd time and he turns around looking like he was going to cry and calls the guy a bitch.

No room in any sport for such a reckless action. No concern for player safety at all. I would argue he should be banned from the sport and let all the defending parties try to defend him and come up with any sort of explanation for such a bone headed move. There is none.

[jonebone | 1,307]

Yeah I'd have to go with a rest of season suspension for that.  No place for it really.  Obviously it was spur of the moment but you gotta be smarter than that. 

[Bearcat-Doug | 5,104]

That was one of the craziest things I've seen and I watched Vontaze Burfict play for years (owner of 3 of the top 5 longest suspensions for on the field incidents). Here's video of what happened for anyone that missed it last night.

That was crazy. I also think he should be removed for the league maximum. Minimum is Rest of season and huge fine.

That would be assault if it happened on the street. Garrett should be suspended for the rest of this season and all of next year plus a record fine. 

[broncofantd793 | 138]

I've watched it multiple times, and it looks like Rudolph attempts to rip off Garrett's helmet first from the back.

If Garrett can't use a "he started it" defense, can Pouncey? 

A year for Garrett, 10 games for Pouncey, and maybe even a few for Rudolph seems like a start. It wouldn't surprise me if some of the other players got suspensions as well.

What Rudolph did is just a normal, 15 yard penalty and maybe an ejection normally, all brought on by a bullshit tackle by Garrett to begin with. What Garrett did assault and he should sit a year. 
 

Rudolph 1 game

Pouncey 2 games

Garrett 16 games

I agree that Garrett could have ended Rudolph's life if that helmet swing hit a certain spot, and his punishment should be severe.

However, Rudolph is not without blame here. He escalated the situation, and Garrett, a much larger guy, out escalated him. And what was Rudolph thinking, charging an NFL defensive lineman without a helmet?

And what if Pouncey's kick had landed on the crown of Garrett's helmet and killed him?

My point is the blame and accountability should be spread out.

[Reed Rothchild | 9,493]

...but like 98% of it should be on Garrett

Actually, more like 99.8%.  Someone should tell Rudolph to not get so upset next time his head is almost torn off.

[MrMark0673 | 197]

If he doesn't get at least the rest of the season off, it shows a clear bias for marquee players.

If that were Brady and not Mason Rudolph, Garrett would never play another game in the league.

[Boosted52405 | 178]

This is one of the craziest things I've ever seen - given the circumstances.  The Browns had the game LOCKED DOWN, Garrett got a QB hit - then a weak ass unproven rookie QB pulls on his helmet and he lets loose like this!?!?!?!?!?

The more you watch the vid, you can see he swung that helmet with legit intent - he went for the homer - just wow.

Rudolph is an idiot to start shit with nearly any NFL player, let alone Garrett - he's an insanely athletic ripped powerhouse.  He is ripped to the point he wants his body to be viewed like a god if anyone caught that for the ESPN Body issue.

Welp, he now has about 8 months to work on his physique lol.  He won't play again until next year minimum - IDIOT.

This isn't Albert Haynesworth crazy, but super close in a modern game with so much emphasis around head trauma.

Just WOW.

It seems more around 50% for Garrett, 35% for Rudolph, 15% Pouncey

Brady wouldn't have tried to twist and pull off an NFL defensive lineman's helmet.

It should be a year for Garrett, but Rudolph isn't near blameless here. 

[jonebone | 1,307]

Just announced, indefinitely.  At least this season and playoffs.

I'd go with 1 for Rudolph and maybe 1 or 2 for Pouncey too.  I'm fine if Pouncey doesn't get any though.  Teammate protecting his player.

Haynesworth head stomped a player.  He and Garrett both lost it.  And Pouncey did too.

That's a good point about the head trauma perspective.  How can a sport like football continue? Rudolph was almost killed twice this season.

[Boosted52405 | 178]

Looks like Pouncey got 3 games, seems a little much but he went IDIOT-mode too.  The Browns player that push Rudolph back to the ground got 1 game, lol.
