What Rudolph did was normal after-the whistle 15 yard stuff, not suspension material.  perhaps a fine at the very most.  

Everyone should pause and ask: what if Garrett did this to Brady.  

Hung at the goalpost

What the heck did I miss?????

Indefinite

After hearing numerous current and former players call for Garrett to be done for the year, I dont think he plays another snap until next season.

Cracked rudolph over the (uncovered) head with his helmet

Rudolph won’t be suspended. Please. 0% chance 

I wonder if he would be if nothing else had happened after he attempted to rip Garrett's helmet off. Maybe just a penalty/fine.

Assault with a deadly weapon on the field

Myles Garrett ripped Rudolph’s helmet off and beat him over the head with it. Then all hell broke loose.

Myles Garrett should be banned for life.

 

Having said that, I have a feeling the following will be lost in the discussion: Mason Rudolph did commit the first non-football act of aggression there. Let's not pretend that didn't happen. It in no way justifies what followed, but it nonetheless occurred and should not be ignored just because Rudolph was brutalized. He should be suspended a game.

I know what your saying but as soon as that helmet hits the guy on the skull it changes from 'football violence' to assault.

Actually, no. The play was LONG over before Garrett threw Rudolph to the ground. Like a couple seconds. That was the first act of aggression.

Damiem Williams is REALLY REALLY upset.  

[Gunsgoodtime]

All the talking heads are calling for the remainder of the season..it will be interesting how the NFL handles this.

[reddogblitz]

Life and charged criminally with assault with a deadly weapon.

 

And why was Rudolph not taken into the tent to check for concussion?

Correct.  And let’s not forget that Rudolph already missed several games this year with a head injury/concussion.  And Garrett drills him in the head with his own helmet....I think he’s done for the year.

Yup. In football terms, they each deserved offsetting unsportsmanlike penalties - and THEN arrest-worthy assault occurred.

That’s actually the perfect way to put it Guns. Absolutely pathetic.

Am I crazy or was this no worse than the hit Gronk put on Tre White? That was one of the dirtiest hits I've ever seen and no seemed to really care.

 

I think Garrett will be suspended the rest of the season.

 

The dude yanked the helmet off the quarterback -- the prima donna of the NFL--and literally beat him with it.

 

Yes. You're crazy.

My sense was that Rudolph was reacting to Garrett slamming him to the ground. His sack itself was a 'roughing the passer' in any other moment. Watch Mason's head on the sack.
