He got 3 games.3) Pouncy should see discipline as well.
3) Pouncy should see discipline as well. I understand that emotions are high and you may want to protect your teammate however you are protecting your teammate knowing you are prepared to suffer consequences. Besides, it is beyond protecting your teammate when the teammate is free from the melee and you are punching and kicking a guy who is on the bottom already tackled by another one of you teammates.
How was it a late hit? Everyone keeps repeating that. Garrett didn't start ****.
Play starts at 1:23. Garrett is touching him before he even releases the ball. He just finished the tackle like you're taught to do.
There are some of those national sports newscasters who are ripping on Rudolph too for instigating it. I don't know much for details, but they're saying Rudolph tried to rip Garrett's helmet off first.
Edit: I just want to add that doesn't defend Garrett's actions at all.
He got 3 games.
Pouncy got suspended 3 games.
It's a late hit because Garrett continues to grab the QB and throw him to the ground. You can't do that. It's called roughing the passer. Why rough the passer when you're up 14 with a couple of seconds left? Nobody teaches defensive players to commit 15 yard penalties. At least I would hope nobody does.
Yeah I still don't have a problem with what he did regardless of my bias. It's his job to protect his quarterback, and if he has to throw punches and kick his head knowing knowing that he'll get suspended for it. For that, I tip my cap to him.Thanks. I included it because someone posted that they had no problem with what he did so I thought I should comment. I hadn't heard that he got put in timeout. I think it is appropriate.
The Pouncey’s are some of the last people on the planet I’d want to get into a fight with.Downvote away, but I have no issue with what Pouncey did.

Save it. Hes an idiotic Browns fan.
There was less than 15 seconds when the play started and it was a simple screen play to end the game. The lineman were not blocking 100% imo because the game was over. Garrett's shot was cheap even though if it wasn't textbook roughing the passer.
As I said: "There was less than 15 seconds when the play started and it was a simple screen play to end the game. The lineman were not blocking 100% imo because the game was over."How was it cheap when he literally just finished the tackle and even did it the 2019 way of pulling Rudolph on top of him?

The game was over. Watch what #53 for the Browns did when we could have help "finished" the tackle. I don't think it was illegal but it was cheap and stupid.
