He should be. That was totally uncalled for.

To bad his helmet was on.The kick to Garrett’s head can’t be overlooked.
So if someone swung at a friend of yours and you were right there, your instant reaction in that moment of turmoil would be to try and hold back the guy or deescalate the situation after your friend has already been whacked in the head?
Again, that's fine.
I also think it's perfectly ok if someone like me would instead go after the guy who swung. All's fair in war at that point.
So I get why the NFL did what they did, but I simply am not going to chastise Pouncey for how he reacted.

Actually, yes. But that’s beside the point. The point is, Pouncey punched and kicked a guy in the head. He deserves the suspension that he received.So if someone swung at a friend of yours and you were right there, your instant reaction in that moment of turmoil would be to try and hold back the guy or deescalate the situation after your friend has already been whacked in the head?

Rudolph needs a suspension equal to Garrett's
Yeah, the hit was late - but Rudolph tried to rip off Garrett's helmet, then those 2 were both going at it. (Including Garrett getting a kick to the groin with cleates, which I view as equal to Garrett swinging the helmet.
Is this serious, yes.
Should anyone be arrested - no. They are in a violent sport - they just took it beyond the rules.
Did anyone really get hurt - no. No permanent or career-threatening injuries happened. (no blood, no foul)
Rudolph and Garrett kept escalating the situation. They are equally at fault.
