Myles Garrett claims officials told him he wasn't going to get holding calls vs Bucs

[DapperCam]

If it’s true, then he’s never getting another call in his favor. Should have asked Jerry Hughes before calling out the refs publicly like this.

Every defensive lineman says they get held on every play…..

I trust his word about as far as I can throw him, and I couldn't even lift that big fudger.

[GunnerBill]

He does have history for saying things that are not true though....

Remember what Officer George Green told Jim Lahey: "Never cry s***wolf."

He also claimed Rudolph called him a racial slur, even though no one else around them heard anything of the sort. I think he’s FOS.

Nah. Mysteriously the audio from that game disappeared. Both the recordings from the field microphones and Garrett’s as he was mic-ed up for the game. NFL protecting the shield. They don’t want it known a QB dropped the N-word. It’d have been easy to disprove Garrett’s claim with those recordings otherwise.

We'll, he served his purpose last week so now I'm back to being anti Browns.

 

Totally didn't expect that treat last week! It's like the Bucs can only beat decent teams. Against bad teams they're awful

Without checking this to verify, didn’t multiple players on both teams say they didn’t hear anything? I don’t see a conspiracy. If anything the league would want to protect the reputation of one of its beat players, but a throwaway backup quarterback:

He's quickly found himself in the eye of the s***icane with those refs.

 

Fun fact, my friend's bar has his picture and signed "Lahey's burger bucks" 5 dollar bill on the wall from the time he stopped in there for lunch.

A s***nami of biblical proportions! 😁

 

TPB can be lewd, crude, and crass, but Dunsworth's Jim Lahey and his 's***isms' were always waited for.

No. It did not come out immediately so no one else was asked about it. Other than Garrett stating that Rudolph did call him a “stupid n-word” when asked about it in a subsequent interview and Rudolph denying it through his lawyer I don’t think anyone else weighed in. The NFL said they found no evidence of it happening, but they also didn’t share the recordings.

I believe Garrett.  It's pretty much the same way with pass interference.  It has to impact the play significantly enough.  Garrett needs to learn when to take a dive.

Easy to disprove? They'd have to release every second of audio which Garrett himself probably doesn't want, the NFL doesn't want everything players say in the public, and even then people would still say "but".

Releasing audio of every second of the fight that lasted less than a minute? That seems very easy to do and for people to digest. But your point that other things might be on the recording that the NFL wouldn’t want heard by the public is certainly possible.

 

I’m also not excusing him swinging a helmet at Rudolph’s head. But criticizing him for that and calling him a liar for what he said about Rudolph’s actions are two different things.

The Browns from the top down is a clown show.

Officials probably said he should stop complaining and just fight through them, and before bitching he should speak with Jerry Hughes.

if he wasn't getting the Jerry Hughes treatment before he will be now.

 

smarter to keep your mouth shut-easier said than done though

[Ridgewaycynic2013]

Garrett looks to have a future in politics, once he hangs up the cleats. 🤨

[Don Otreply]

Why does anyone care what he says?
