We might miss the playoffs because jerky Steelers players team attacked Garrett.
If I were Garrett I would've done worse. A guy tries to take your helmet off, kicks you in the balls, charges are you with rage in his eyes, punches you in the balls AGAIN while his big friend holds you. Then acts completely innocent.
I have lost all respect for Rudolph. Just another dirty Steelers player.
Garrett was OK until he decided to pound the little guy with his own helmet. You can't do that in football. Apparently, that was never cool but these days it'll cause a full blast pearl clutching swoon. Fine him, make him play the Steelers again in two weeks. That'll be a learning moment for everyone concerned.
Kitchens should lose his job at the end of the season. Team discipline is non-existent. It's always something flat out dumb happening and the buck stops with him.

Guys, I woke up this morning and confirmed the sickness in my stomach over this whole situation is a reality.
Myles Garret's NFL Career is finished
Garret knows this too, you could see it in his eyes in the post game interview. There is simply no way he comes back from this, no way. He will probably be back on the field sure, but he will be a shell of his former self.
He won't even be able to look another players way now without a penalty. He has pretty much ostracized himself from the tight nit fraternity that is NFL players. Even Baker Mayfield, his own team mate, lambasted him publically in the media.
This is pretty much a dagger in the heart to this ENTIRE ORGANIZATION. Myles Garret was not only our best player by far, he was the face of this organization. He was not just a spoke on the wheel, Myles Garret WAS THE WHEEL. Every bit a of success we have on this team revolved around Garret. He was literally our Reggie White, our cornerstone, our foundation. This guy has more sacks than any player in the league since 2017, He is probably the best draft pick the Browns have made in 50 years outside of Joe Thomas.
Just when this organization was finally beginning to turn things around, finally found that "one guy" who makes everything work and something like this happens. Trust me, the Steelers are laughing right now, they know Garret is finished, no way he comes back from something like this, no way in hell.
I look at things from the "long view" and most Browns fans just don't realize it yet...I do though...Garret is finished...to me I feel like h just completely destroyed both of his knees and his elbow twice with surgery required injuries...in my ehart...I know he is done...
If/When he takes the field again, he will only be Myles Garret by name, the Garret who has more sacks than anyone since 2017, the Garret who is the best pash rusher in the league, the Garret teams had to gameplan for and he still impacted the game...will no longer exists, he will only exist in memories and dreams of Browns fans hoping for a Super Bowl...
God im so sick....so sad...completely heartbroken...Myles Garret was my favorite player, the first guy we have had on D since Micheal Dean Perry that ya just know is great....all these years, and in a few seconds, Garret has threw it all away...
I can't even type anymore...in retaliation, Garret threw everything away, he knows it too...so sick...so sad....
Gone for the year is right .. we gotta make sure this doesn’t affect more than just his position/production. We can’t let it linger and seep into internal discord
"First down inside the 10. A score here will put us in the Super Bowl. Cooper is far to the left as Njoku settles into the slot. Moore is flanked out wide to the right. Chubb and Ford are split in the backfield as Watson takes the snap ... Here we go."

I actually think the team will rally around this and play well.
Although I did read that some of the players aren't happy with Mayfield's comments after the game so that could lead to some discord.
I think Mayfield was a complete leader after the game and support his comments 100%.
LOL - The Rish will be upset with this news as well. KS just doesn't prioritize winning...
His comments had to be said ... you simply can’t say anything else IMO. I was afraid he’d say something like “I didn’t see it and hope Myles handles it better next time” which would have been a cop out

Myles Garrett is a meathead. He's a me first guy. Remember what his goals were for the season? Nothing team, all me goals.
He's an immature loser.
Exactly. My Dad and I were talking about this just last week. All that Garrett cares about are inflating his own sack numbers. Often times I found he completely disappears during games. Whoo! Hoo! He got a sack to increase his numbers. If its not meaningful for the team then I don't care about his sacks. I agree, everything I've seen from him tells me he's a me first guy.

Wasn't there a "because if I do those it means I'll be helping the team" at the end of his quote on his goals?
You mess with the "Bull," you get the horns. Fiercely Independent.
Garrett was having a great year and now will be done for the season. All because a backup QB tried to take his helmet off, really? Garrett should have laughed at Rudolph and walked away.
This was a victory over a division rival that could have turned the season around. Now because of Garrett losing his mind and committing what some are saying assault, the win is ruined.

I agree on this. With the troubles kick starting the season, Mayfield's lackluster numbers and media drama, OBJ not getting the ball, Higgins drama, Callaway waived and now Garrett....I really hope this doesn't linger and cause more issues and push our season down the tubes. The 2nd Pitt game is going to be a VERY hostile environment.
Suckss to lose him but I've been saying for 2 decades that I would welcome dirty players like the Steelers have had near constantly. I'm here for all this smoke, couldn't happen to a better team. If this were the Dolphins, I would be bemoaning how stupid Garret is/was.
It's not, it was the Steelers, in a win at home. F that team.

Rudolph tried to take Garrett's helmet off but I didn't see him kick Garrett. What Garrett did is inexcusable.

Pouncey kicked Garrett in the head several times when he was down.
Definitely not making excuses for Garrett, but Pouncey will/should be suspended too.
The bar was set by the Haynesworth stomp. Haynesworth had a history The stomp was cold and calculated The stomp resulted in stitches in that center's head.
Myles hit checks none of those boxes, but the environment we're in now raises it to that level. Give him the same punishment, add the ridiculous crying and hand wringing on top and call it a day. Garrett has to accept responsibility and throw himself at the altar of NFL discipline, so to speak.
Personally, I'm glad we're finally bullying the bullies. I can't help but feel sorry for browns fans that watched Harrison gloat about knocking out browns and then turn around and shed years for a Steelers QB that started and continued that fight. Not excusing Garrett at all, just trying to look at it logically.
There is no level of sucking we haven't seen; in fact, I'm pretty sure we hold the patents on a few levels of sucking NOBODY had seen until the past few years.

Mason allegedgly called him a racial slur.
Then kicked him in the groin. As myles was WALKING AWAY, mason charged him as two other steelers were holding myles walking.
You are walking away, behing held by two of his buddies, being charged at by a possibly a racist lunatic snarling at you that just kicked you in the gonads.
@YoungerAssoc I seen it on tv, Pittsburgh qb attacks Garrett with a kick an tried to remove helmet first. why don't you chase a ambulance somewhere else

You keep repeating this, but do you have anything substantial to back it up other than Twitter conspiracy theories? It's not like ESPN would pull punches if there was a racial element to it.
Looked like a mouthpiece check to me. Professional concern and reciprocal camaraderie.
Dumb. I have seen worse. Rudolph is all innocent acting. Watch it a couple more times. Myles was wrong. Please remember how we handled Such and Burfict and Siragusa as well as others.
The KOB above seems sensationalized. Watching to see.
Oh! Great win, men.

Rudolph tried to start up with him, but can't muscle him. Punk fight. MG got punched by multiple guys. Defend yourself. Three or more against one. Not excusing it, but I understand how you can snap.

Only thing I saw was a report ESPN's Josina Anderson tweeted she wouldn't be surprised if Myles would come out and say Mason called him a racial slur then deleted the tweet after all the backlash she was getting but at this point nothing would surprise me either way.Id also be interested in seeing if there is anything to substantiate that claim
"Success is not final, failure is not fatal: it is the courage to continue that counts." - Winston Churchill
Yeeeeeeesh. The helmet attack was not good. That being said I highly doubt Myles had any intent to kill the guy and he didn't kill the guy. Guys take a lot harder shots to the head throughout the game. Myles probably could have hurt him more by punching him in the face. Who knows though.
Myles really seems to be look a good guy off the field. I think he is just trying to make lots of plays during the game. Never came across as a dirty player to me. Talk of shutting down his NFL career is sad. I'd give him a 2 game suspension but I have a feeling it will be more like 6. This is a guy that plays hard for our team... I don't want to lose him. And he didn't beat the hell out of a woman off the field or kill anybody or anything like that. And he didn't start the fight.
people justifying what Garrett did is absurd...oh... he called me a name..let me try to kill him with a weapon.. gmab. Nothing anyone did justifies what garrett did..i would be very suprised if he doesn't get atleast a year suspension.. I don't think people realize how egregious this was and NFL has to make a statement..this isn't a kick or a punch, this is weaponizing a piece of equipment and attacking a player without equipment. Garrett deserves everything he's going to get..lets not forget this isn't the first time he's done something punishable. (Titans game)
