Wow. Sad. That was a blatant act of unsportsmanship.

BS! If it were up to me, he'd miss all the playoffs and a lot more next year. I'm done with his shit. The only way it's going to stop is if he's scared and a fuckin $70,000 fine doesn't mean shit to him. Expect him to do more of this. He's a pile of garbage.

Suh earns $20M.

The average US household income is $50,000.

On that scale, this fine is the equivalent of $175.

Total BS.

I've seen much worse things that didn't even get a fine.
If that was the first time he did something like that, I would agree. But he's a dirty player who clearly tries to injure other players. He should be banned.

Un. Fucking. Real. What are those assholes going to say when this idiot finally seriously injures someone? The way he spiked Delhomme was criminal and could have ended his LIFE, never mind his career. Only a matter of time...

Guys like Deacon Jones and Jack Lambert were famous for crossing the line. This type of stuff happens in every game.

In the Rams game last week one of our players, I believe Dunbar, looked like he was trying to rip Turbin's head off by his facemask under a pile. I would've been pissed if that was happening to Tre Mason.

I don't know, man.

He steps backward. Steps on Rodgers leg. Instead of looking back and trying to shift away from Rodgers leg he LIFTS his opposite foot putting his full weight on Rodgers and walks away as if he never stepped on anything.

Complete and purposeful act.

I don't think there's any way the second step wasn't intentional. I just think people are naive to the dirty part of the game.

Exactly! Despite the fines... it's not changed your habit! :sneaky:

I hear you. I think we see it every game. Guys giving a little extra business getting up from tackles, etc. But stepping on a guy like that could have knocked Rodgers out of the game or longer.

I dunno. Seems like a bigger deal than an elbow jab.

Let's see, Brady gets inadvertently hurt, and they make a new rule to supposedly protect the most important position in the league. A repeat offender intentionally attempts to maim the best quarterback in football and it's more important that a DT get to play on tv. The point is, I really hate the Patriots.

You would think the NFLPA would be just as concerned about Rodgers being stepped on as they are about whether or not Suh misses a game.

I wanted Suh back in 2010 because I worried that we didn't have the supporting cast necessary to help a #1 overall QB thrive... but had I known he had this kind of attitude, I never would have wanted him.

Though I wonder how much is him and how much is Detroit. They're starting to make a serious case for dirtiest team in the league.

Heard a former player on the radio state he thought a fine is appropriate for the situation! I disagree, suspension for this asshat is appropriate!

I tell you what we are playing the North next year and if he does a hit like that on Bradford I'm going to go break out the DC sniper and tell him he's free to go ONLY after he snipes Suh in his face...

Total horse shit. I hate this guy. Hopefully Greg Robinson will kill him next year.

*Kill as in beating his ass. Bad.
