Danny Trevathan needs to be suspended for dirty hit on Davante Adams: EDIT, Suspended 2 Games


Kevin Greene

Inconsistency of rule enforcement, selective timing of enforcing holding and PI, inconsistency of what a completed pass is ... these are bigger issues that are dooming the future of the NFL than the flag/ anthem issue (IMO).

Goodell et al are destroying the integrity and purity of the sport.

Was a perfect opportunity for the NFL to try out their new rule in ejecting players immediately for those hits and giving fans a little more faith in the future of this game.

 

 

Of course, they failed. 

Yup and Cam is still not safe.

Poo happens...he'll get fined and rightfully so. Trevathan isn't a dirty player. Seeing things in slow motion over and over again riles up the masses...in real time he was making a football play and happened to lower his helmet at worst possible time.

you dont have to be a dirty player to make dirty plays. Optics matter, people see the way you treat your players and its bad for the game.

.... and more parents won't let their kids play football as we witness this game die a slow painful death. 

 

Sorry, examples need to be made if you want this game to exist another 20 years.

To act like vicious hits will never happen is ridiculous...regardless of rules, fines, suspensions...im sure Trevathans intent was never to paralyze the guy. Football is violent and when violence is expected these things will happen. You can't legislate or penalize this stuff from happening.

It actually looks worse in real time. It was 3rd and goal too and he was clearly about to go down.

    • Me and you clearly have different definitions of production. If you remove the 2023 season where Thielen had just over 1k yards he is 43rd on our all time receivers list just ahead of Jonathan Mingo. And before you ask why would we remove that season? Well a couple reasons. For one thing we won a whopping 2 games. And for the biggest. Thielen was 14th in targets in 2023. We absolutely force fed him the ball all season and finished with the 32nd passing offense. For comparison sake 33 year old Jerricho Cotchery eclipsed over 1k total yards in just 2 more games and with 67 less targets than Thielen did in that 2023 season. He has above average hands. That's it. We overpaid him because we were desperate and overvalued him. That's the reality no matter how many times you or anyone else wants to quote me and get defensive about it.
    • He's played great and it was a win-win (rare free agent) for both parties.  One of the points is he hasn't made enough difference to "waste" 35 million on. Another point is by the time Panthers are hitting their prime, he would have taken snaps away from young WRs/TEs/RBs. "Thus" in the long term, hurting the teams new future "window."  But I dare think of the monkey poo of a offense the Panthers had without him the past 2 years. Lack of talent leads to many problems, including paying a 35 year old to be somewhat respectable. Hes one of few that cared enough and made a effort. Plus you know he's done great stuff in many other ways for the team, community juggernaut, leadership, etc.  Judgement is for AT and his 3 year panther career!!
    • But it has gotten a little wacky. RBs-https://www.spotrac.com/nfl/contracts/_/position/rb     A couple months ago iggles made Bark the highest guaranteed RB, jeanty was until then. That's what matters the guarantee. A rookie never played a down was the leader, until iggles howie made things right.  If a safety gets drafted in the top 8 or so, he would have the highest money too or very close to it.    Add in TEs and C too.    Even with the fixed %, the numbers are getting too much for a player that's not proven themselves.     Plus anytime a QB is drafted it screws up the contracts for players around and if next year a punter gets drafted at the same 90th spot, they want the same contract with the 5.7% increase. Teams would be laughing.    Its just reached this point. Another 10 years and I bet the vets will be crying.
