The Dude Posted December 30, 2014 Share Posted December 30, 2014 Not surprising in that it wad a ridiculous suspension in the first place. Surprising in that the NFL hardly ever makes the right decision. 4 Quote Link to comment
T_O_Bull Posted December 30, 2014 Share Posted December 30, 2014 Have to think Goodell has days when he sits in his office and just repeats, 'When will I have a day when I do everything right.' over and over. T_O_B Quote Link to comment

dvdcrr Posted December 31, 2014 Share Posted December 31, 2014 Give him a break. He's mainly only dirty to QB's and theres like at least 11 guys on the field he is decent to, and thats not even counting officials. Quote Link to comment
SLHusker Posted December 31, 2014 Share Posted December 31, 2014 Good. Want the Lions to go all the way!!! Quote Link to comment
GSG Posted December 31, 2014 Share Posted December 31, 2014 Why The NFL Considered Ndamukong Suh A First-Time Offender Under a policy change made earlier this year, players who behave themselves are allowed to escape the repeat-offender tag with time; if they go 32 games without committing a second finable or suspendable player-safety violation, they're off the list. When Suh stepped on Aaron Rodgers, he was playing in his 33rd game since his last fine—a low block on John Sullivan in Week 1 of 2013 that garnered a record $100,000. (Suh is lucky the rule counts two preseason games per year toward the 32-game threshold; he wouldn't yet have reached it otherwise. Quote Link to comment

That block on Sullivan was only illegal because the NFL Rules Committee changed the rule the year PRIOR. Quote Link to comment
alexhortdog95 Posted December 31, 2014 Share Posted December 31, 2014 Fake Bo Pelini@FauxPelini Dec 28 .@NFLCOMMISH Pls suspend Aaron Rodgers for trying to trip Suh 4 Quote Link to comment
Guy Chamberlin Posted December 31, 2014 Share Posted December 31, 2014 Apparently in Suh's appeal he told the NFL "my feet were cold and I couldn't tell the difference between Rodgers leg and the ground." Anyone on Earth believe that? Bueller? Watching the video I was on the fence, but the utter lameness of that excuse convinces me Suh knew exactly what he was doing. If he had taken Aaron Rodgers out of the playoffs, I never would have forgiven him. As it stands, his act is wearing thin. Rumor is he'll be out of Detroit soon. 1 Quote Link to comment
