dave mcbride Posted December 23, 2013 Posted December 23, 2013 Woods needs to control himself... BUT there should've been a penalty called on the DB he was locked up with who drove him back into the pile after the play which started the whole thing. Woods needs to control himself...

The DB did nothing wrong, in my opinion. Woods needs to control himself...

gobillsinytown Posted December 23, 2013 Posted December 23, 2013 He'll learn from his mistake. My guess is that he just got tired from being jabbed and poked on every play, but it happens on every play. He'll also learn that it isn't a good idea to punch someone with a helmet on.
RyanC883 Posted December 23, 2013 Posted December 23, 2013 there is a clear double standard here. Even the announcers thought it was dumb to eject him for the game. Raji pulls the same crap against the Steelers, actually a DIRECT punch, and only gets 15 yards and a talking to on the sidelines. Same should have happened for Woods. At any rate, it is awesome to have players who have emotion. As I recall, the 90's Bills had emotion. I'll take this learning mistake from Woods. Play hard, to the whistle, and only "PUSH" after the play if you need to.

The DB did nothing wrong, in my opinion. I agree with you as far as Woods holding him the whole play. But was was said before he threw the "punch", we will never know. I think the referee should have ejected Woods like this: #10 WR is being ejected from the game for being dumb enough to attempt a close fist punch on an NFL helmet. By rule of retardation, he is being ejected and will seek medical help. 15 yard penalty, prayers for his mental health, first down Dolphins.
Over 29 years of fanhood Posted December 23, 2013 Posted December 23, 2013 He's a real nfl WR. Kid can flat out play. Rookie WRs are rarely this good. Get used to worrying about if he takes his helmet off in th EZ... He's going to be there again...
ColdBlueNorth Posted December 23, 2013 Author Posted December 23, 2013 Not defending Woods because the team comes first and that was a purely selfish act, but at the initial block it looks like the safety he locks up with has his hands up under Woods facemask and keeps pushing after the whistle...and Woods flips out and finishes with a takedown and a nice cross face. It probably felt good to Woods, but be ended up costing the team 15 yards and his services when they were already down 2 WRs.
Campy Posted December 23, 2013 Posted December 23, 2013 Has this been an issue with Woods in his college career? He said he'd never thrown a punch on the field or been ejected before this.
Fan in Chicago Posted December 23, 2013 Posted December 23, 2013 It probably felt good to Woods, but be ended up costing the team 15 yards and his services when they were already down 2 WRs. And he was having a heck of a day too - 3 catches for 70 yards.
DrDawkinstein Posted December 23, 2013 Posted December 23, 2013 Yesterday's game (ejection included) just made me like him even more.
Campy Posted December 23, 2013 Posted December 23, 2013 "Actually didn't know who it was," Woods said. "Earlier in the game I was talking to [No.] 28, [cornerback Nolan] Carroll, saying 'good game, good plays' and stuff like that. Same thing with [cornerback Brent] Grimes. I don't know where [Jones'] actions came from, but actually [No.] 20, he cheap-shotted me last time we played as well. But I didn't know it was him. It was just one of those things where I guess that's how he plays." http://espn.go.com/nfl/story/_/id/10186123/robert-woods-buffalo-bills-talks-ejection
