Re: NFL Might Suspend Players for Violent Hits

I think the NFL would also tell you the Robinson hit was legit. I believe Anderson was just saying the NFL might suspend players for violent hits to hold off others (namely Congress) from stepping in and making changes to the game (like Teddy R. did back in the day). By saying the NFL might suspend players, he's saying "hey, look at us we're serious about this (so don't interfere)" even if they don't really plan on doing anything at the moment. It also tells the players the league is concerned about their safety as CBA re-negotiations heat up
