[BOTT]

Good, a playoff game was over the top

[Qwiz]

Well that's just stupid. I guess he has to end a guy's career or something before the league does anything even slightly drastic.

[amfootball]

That is disappointing. How a guy like Suh can earn a clean slate is ludicrous. The next time the NFL complains about its players and why they don't behave, they should remember this ruling. Just no deterrent for dirty play.

[Girlzarefanstoo]

Stupid.  Money doesn't mean enough to these guys, a playoff game AND a threat of next time X # of games, might make him think before doing something nasty the next time. 

[Susie Q]

Would you still feel that way if he did that to Luck :???:  

[Susie Q]

Well I'm glad that someone has some sense on this subject.

[hawkeyes]

WOW - pathetic NFL - pathetic!

 

The thug (IMO) clearly intentionally (again IMO) stepped on Aaron Rodgers with all his weight.  

 

WHAT if it had fractured his leg?  I guess that is what its going to take before this guy finally gets what he keeps asking for!

 

IMO (yah once again) the guy has had enough 2nd chances - its clear he has issues that should require a much stiffer penalty!    An entire year off without pay - if he does it again life time banishment!

Well as Gramz just said to me he must have 9 lives like a cat.   :grumpy:   How many time has he done this :???:

Too many IMO.

[John Dee]

What he did this time was nothing we don't see EVERY week in the NFL.     He was being punished because of rep not because of the actual act.   

 

Justice served.      That said ... dude is a tool. ..  But I guarantee NE and Indy will knock on his door come off season.  

 

I would LOVE to have him on INDY's team.

Sure glad your not the   GM.  I personally don't see either team wanting him but what do I know.

Maybe Indy. Pats won't go near him with a ten foot pole. Word is he wants to play for one of the NY teams to enhance his marketability. Maybe he can be a spokesperson for Stompeez. lol.

[-JJ-]

Well according to the article he's been fined 8 times for player violations

 

Since he's been clean for 32 games he gets a clean slate.

 

Guess it doesn't walk like a duck.......

pats took a shot on fat albert and aqib talib not exactly model citizens and dont get me started on hernandez

[John Dee]

N Suh is all about some ME...    that is for sure...  BUT in the end..   Don't be surprised if a LOT of that Brady gift goes to a FA out of Detroit.       

 

Dude is a stud..       he just needs to act with a little class.

[John Dee]

NE will kick the tires...    That is just how they roll.       I would too, he is worth it.

True. Neither lasted though. Doubt they go 3 for 3. Plus Suh will cost way more than those guys. Pats don't like fat, stupid and expensive.

[John Dee]

SQ when it gets down to it...      Teams want guys who can play.    They will "overlook" a ton of stuff...  if said player can "get it done"

 

Suh would be a MAJOR upgrade to Indy's DL.    But I don't see Indy shelling out the cash he will demand.

suh is expensive, but fat and stupid isnt even close. character aside, he is one of the best DTs in the game and you cant say different. only watt and maybe mccoy is better

[John Dee]

FAT?   Dude is a monster ... and not a fat one..  

 

So he is a bad person...    on the field?   Dang he has never beat up his wife, been accused of rape, beat his child, or KILLED ANYONE.  

 

Just saying...   It's a business not a church social.

Imagine him on the Jets with Sheldon and Wilkerson. *shutter* Brady might have to break out his sports Uggs to keep from getting drilled.

I think on the field actually bothers Bill more. If Suh played for the Pats and managed to get suspended for a playoff game, he would be cut.

[John Dee]

OMG....   no comment... 

 

BB teaches "physical" football.        the little joke inside the NFL is that NE D plays until a half second AFTER the whistle... 

 

Oh and Rodney Harrison was a loved Pat...        add his fines up. 

 

c'mon now AM......

Aggressive sure. Physical yes. Stupid no. Suh costs his teams with his actions. Could have cost them a playoff game ... Rodney never did anything like that. Closest is Welker with his foot jokes ...

You have no idea what you're talking about.

Bill hates stupid plays. He benched or cut players for doing stupid stuff as a Patriot.

i don't recall him suspending Harrison

[BOTT]

Would you still feel that way if he did that to Luck :???:

Of course not...I'm a colts fan. Having said that it never ceases to amaze me what gets nfl fans fired up. A defender can blatantly use his helmet as a weapon causing a concussion and fans shrug their shoulders or complain how the nfl is soft. But step on Aaron Rodgers leg and fans are outraged.

[amfootball]

Harrison never stomped on anyone or kicked a player in the crotch. He got flags and fines for late hits but was never suspended by the league.

I think the difference here is that sometimes helmet to helmet contact can't be helped, and concussions can be caused by the hazard of the game.

 

What Suh did was a blatant attempt to harm Rodgers.   Anyone that thinks otherwise, needs to watch the replay a few more times.

 

  and I want to add.....  Suh has a long history of this malicious behavior.   A slap on the wrist and a fine is not going to change anything where he's concerned.

If it had only been Aaron Rodgers but this isn't the first time he has been fined for such actions and I'm betting it won't be the last.

that's not what VL said. He said he suspended or cut guys for "stupid plays"

Bill has done that for actions like Suh's. Rodney never did anything like that.

,Those are things that happen in Milliseconds between the whistles. Not intentionally standing on a guys injured leg well after the play

[jvan1973]

Like?

[amfootball]

Like?

I can't think of anyone recent as Bill generally weeds those guys out during training camp ...

I'm not talking about unintentional helmet to helmet contact. Nfl players having been using their helmets as weapons for years. Just look at ziggy ansah's hit on jimmy clauson.....blatant helmet to helmet that knocked Clauson out for next weeks game and nobody gave two farts. But Aaron Rodgers has a bruise on his leg boo hoo.

Not saying what Suh did wasn't stupid...and he deserves to be fined....but in the violent world of football I have a hard time getting worked up over it.

[BOTT]

He once cut a sucky safety for making it obvious he was using his helmet as a weapon lol. What courage.....

I'll.have you know i did indeed give two farts. And plan to give more at a later date

[Gramz]

Thanks, Jvan.  I needed that belly laugh     after all this serious discussion.
