NFL week 10

[FrenchSkin]

Garrett suspended indefinitely, Pouncey 3 games, Ogunjobi 1 game

Pouncey will appeal and if I'm the judge he's not getting more than one game. His quarterback just got slammed in the head with his helmet, he had to retaliate.

This is the closest to the Malice at the Palace that the NFL will have...hopefully.

Yeah, his initial punch after Garrett hit Rudolph with the helmet was definitely understandable, but kicking the guy while he's down may be tough for him to win an appeal on.

I agree in that he needed to defend his qb, but I don't think the NFL will. He could've defended him without kicking and punching.

Just so we're clear, I don't disagree with Pouncey protecting his qb. Just saying the NFL is going to come down harsh on it too to prevent it from reoccurring.

I think Garrett's suspension should be for the end of the year. He doesn't have the track record guys like Burfict have, and I think his apology is on point.

"Last night, I made a terrible mistake," Garrett said in a statement issued Friday. "I lost my cool and what I did was selfish and unacceptable. I know that we are all responsible for our actions, and I can only prove my true character through my actions moving forward.

"I want to apologize to Mason Rudolph, my teammates, our entire organization, our fans and to the NFL. I know I have to be accountable for what happened, learn from my mistake, and I fully intend to do so."

He owned it, he apologized, he accepted the punishment, and I think the line about proving his true character through his actions moving forward is the best response you can have in a situation like this.

I think the league got it right. I am assuming Garrett gets reinstated to start TC and Garrett doesnt do anything stupid between now and then.

Seems out of character for Garrett but I guess anyone can lose their cool for a short window of time. Good for him to talk with reporters after.

Browns fans are on a roller coaster past 2 years.

To me it sounded like one of those bogus apologies that you have PR people write for you and Garrett had the attitude that he was apologizing because he was caught, not because he was sorry. I do agree though his actions will prove his character going forward.

Would you rather hear that or hear "Gator don't play no shit. You feel me? Gator never... never been about that, about playin no shit."

Also idk that when you swing a helmet at a helmetless qb on a field at a fully packed NFL stadium, in front of millions of viewers, you would be upset about getting caught. There's literally no defense. Trying to defend yourself after that is literally the next worse move. He owned it. Up to him whether or not he changes the narrative that he's a dirty player from here on out.
