Yeah... okay... uh-huh... right, watching it now. This guy, Garrett? What's his agent's name again?

I grew up watching football with my dad. He stopped watching pro ball long before I did. Dad was prescient.
“Roid rage”
My first thought. Got to be. It makes them insane.
Unbelievable. Garrett connected with that helmet to the top of Rudolph’s head better than a 5th grader playing whack a mole!
Every time I turn on a Browns game, I see Baker running for his life, Jarvis Landry or another receiver dropping a ball in a huge spot, or Miles Garrett picking up a personal foul. He had 3 in the first month of the season alone.
This team lacks discipline and it all falls back on the head coach. Has a HC ever been fired after a win? Not to deflect from what Garrett did, he is gonna get his. But up 14 with seconds left and this happens. It epitomizes the Browns. Complete lack of discipline. Think Bill Belichick and the Pats would have gotten to the point of Garrett having 3 PF’s in the first month? Kitchen’s needs to bench some people or he needs to leave.
Do you know that just this year. A man approached Garrett in public and punched him in the face on a dare? Do you know that Myles did nothing to defend or retaliate afterwards?
He studied paleontology in college. He has always been considered a quiet, thoughtful guy off the field while an absolute beast on it.
Point is this guy is far from some gangland street thug. I don’t know why he did what he did and he deserves a multi game suspension. But from all previous accounts, this is a good, smart human being who did something incredibly stupid on the field.
He should be held accountable but he is not trash.
The Browns have played undisciplined much of the year. This seemed extremely odd to end the game this way, as the Browns had the game in hand. And Rudolph had a horrible game with four interceptions. This was so unnecessary and sucked all the momentum the Browns should have had from a big win.
I didn’t know anything about his background other than he is a great defensive player. I didn’t watch the game last night but saw the lowlights this morning before work. It just made no sense since there was less than a minute left and the Browns were up by two touchdowns. If any of the Cleveland coaches had any ideas that the guy could go off like this, they should have pulled him off the field. Because, as the fancy boy gravitas-laden pundits are fond of saying, “The optics are really bad.”
Think I’m gonna put a reminder in my calendar right now to watch these 2 crappy teams play each other again in a couple of weeks. Could get very interesting.
Absolutely. His behavior was inexcusable. He’ll get 5 games or so and that’s going to hurt his team. His off the field behavior, however is completely opposite of his recent lack of discipline on it.
Agreed.
just saw replays from this game...what the Browns secondary did to 2 Steelers receivers was worse than the helmet thing...the one Steeler couldnt walk and had blood running fro m an ear. Someones gonna get killed eventually.
The rivalry and traditional hatred between the two teams is back.
Pouncy probably gonna get a couple game suspension too for kicking Garrett in the head while he was on the ground, which is unfortunate because he was just defending his QB... from a violent assault. Garrett needed to take an a** whoopin over that. I’d be in Pouncy’s corner 110% but the NFL likely will not be. If I’m the Steelers, I pay any fine coming Pouncy’s way, plus pay him for whatever games he misses.
Maurkice??
“...James Harrison said an assault like that would warrant jail time if it happened on the street...”
—Not if the quarterback was, oh, say...a conservative reporter...or if his helmet said MAGA on it.
Hardly relevant as to who started what. Scuffling occurs all the time in football. Aggravated assault should not!
Was there a game last night?

I gotta disagree with your wording. Doing a stupid thing on the field would be something like going offsides. Garrett did a criminal thing there.
Didn’t watch this game, so anyone know why Steelers were actually running a pass play, down 14 with 8 seconds left?
One might also be curious as to why the Browns take down a QB after the play when he no longer has the ball while up 14 with 8 seconds left.
You got a problem with that? /s
