(competitive city champ league stuff - not a beer league). Anyway, while it was not one of my proudest moments, I didn't grab an aluminum bat and swing it at someone under the guise that "it was a fight, and the other dude should've known better than to start it with me". I knew what the line was, even in that out of control moment............. most do. This is now how Myles will be remembered...... too bad. He can bounce back from this, if he stops being dirty now. He's an amazing player, but you can't do anything like this ever again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He deserves Criticism for that Mike Tomlin tried to trip Jacoby Jones on a kickoff during a game. I think he’s the last person that should talk about ethics or what’s right and wrong in the nfl. That being said, mason started the fight, set the trap, and Myles fell for it. Now mason can play the victim. Is what Garrett did completely horrible and uncalled for? Yes? Was a reaction like that what Rudolph wanted? Yes...... now he doesn’t have to play Myles and he’s the poor victim. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And his linemen are holding Garrett back from their QB and pushing him. Of course Rudolph shouldn’t have chased after him, but then Garrett drives the helmet towards Rudolph’s head. I’m pretty sure Garrett isn’t trembling in fear of any QB. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

30yearbrownsfan Posted November 15, 2019 Report Share Posted November 15, 2019 After watch the replay. Anything more then 2 game suspension is to much. He asked for and he got it. There was no flag for late hit. Rudolph out of frustration tears Garrett's helmet off. Yes off, watched it in slow motion. Its comes all but clean off and snaps back on. You can see the side of his face with no helmet. Garrett was just doing exactly what was done to him. Its should of ended there but Rudolph acting as a violent aggressor (playing tough guy) wouldn't let it go. Todays helmets are very light. Be lucky if it weighs much more then 4 pounds with most of the weight being the grill and padding. I wouldn't be surprised if there isn't a mark on him. He took a direct hit to the top of the head and wasn't fazed in the slightest. He is lucky Garrett didn't hit him with his fist because he wouldn't of been standing. This weapon talk is a over reaction. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Duckpins Posted November 15, 2019 Report Share Posted November 15, 2019 Baker was impressive in his interview. This could be a turning point for him. And the Browns if they move out the problem creators. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PoeticG Posted November 15, 2019 Report Share Posted November 15, 2019 To think that Myles Garrett was just punched in the face by some random fan while he's sitting in his car but he goes after poor Rudolph out of the blue for no reason during a game... right. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darren15 Posted November 15, 2019 Report Share Posted November 15, 2019 2 things about the incident 1) Did Rudolph wake up with a red nose this morning 2) I did not ever imagine Myles to be a swinger .... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OldBrownsFan Posted November 15, 2019 Report Share Posted November 15, 2019 The worst part for me is that there were only 8 seconds left in the game when this happened and we had the game won. At this point the only thing left should have been a celebration on the field and in the locker room. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tiamat63 Posted November 15, 2019 Report Share Posted November 15, 2019 Myles aside, my quick reaction. - Pleased with the amount of man coverage and 5 man pressures Wilks threw at the young QB. With MG gone, we're going to need more of that to help keep the defense afloat. - Baker played with solid efficiency. Not spectacular but within what he is capable of. - Myles is to villanueva as Suggs was to Joe Thomas. Want to see how @Tour2ma feels about that association. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not trying to be inflammatory, but you really have no idea what you're talking about. Swinging an object as hard as you can at someone's head which can lead to serious injury, paralysis or death i felony assault. Further he was yanking Rudolph's helmet so hard that he actually picket Rudolph up by the head. It looked like he was trying to break his neck. To me that was much worse than even hitting him with the helmet. Claiming self-defense is laughable. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kvoethe Posted November 15, 2019 Report Share Posted November 15, 2019 Even when we win...we lose. They should file charges...just like in hockey. Get rid of him...he has played enough football and heard enough smack talk and comments regarding his mother nothing should set you off that bad. He is officially unreliable as a player...dump him before he gets the becomes the face of the team like suh or burfect. On a side note...if the nfl wants ratings and $$$ .they will have him back for the next game.in 2 weeks.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But there isn't a court in this country that wouldn't laugh at "self defense " Well, this is the way that I would argue it... so no, but take it from me....the one guy that IS a jurist.....a court of law would not probably find a self defense argument meritorious...i.e. a complete exoneration....But they WOULD look at provocation.. Not as a complete defense....but as a mitigating factor. And I think the NFL will look at that as well. For, in essence, while the initial "sentence" is not done via "court setting" terms, the appeal is. And there is certain to be an appeal from whatever comes down....unless it is only a game or 2 suspension. Which to my mind is what it should be. Why? Because, also....while the optics are certainly horrible....the actual consequences were far from that, AND, in a court setting...the consequences, the damages to a 'victim" are absolutely a factor taken into consideration in any what we call a "victim impact" statement. The swing of the helmet did not, by any means, make full contact. It looked more like he was just basically plopping his helmet back on his head. It did no actual damage whatsoever to Rudolph. He just kind of flinched. Did he fall to the ground? No, he turned around, raised his hands in the air, barking a complaint to the officials. Certainly not the actions of someone devastated by a blow to the head. The fact is, Rudolph probably suffered more hurt/pain from the push from behind that knocked him to the ground than from the helmet thing. So...there is you "courtroom" style argument for a diminishment of the punishment that may be due to Garrett. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
