esjbh2 Posted September 19 Report Share Posted September 19 My fear is the stealer crap is just going to get worse as their team declines in standings/record/talent/relevance/etc. It's like how the hockey team that's the worst in the league tends to play the roughest and have the most fights...if they can't win the game, then they can at least win the injury battle. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What gets me is that they're celebrated for it while the NFL blathers on about player safety at the same time. Why does Pissburgh specifically get the green light to play dirty? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bleeds Orange Posted September 19 Report Share Posted September 19 4 hours ago, AmishBengalFan said: There are more rules in the NFL rulebook named after specific Pittsburgh Stealers players, prohibiting specific injurious actions they undertook in games, than any other team. The Kimo von Oelhoffen rule makes it illegal to hit a defenseless Quarterback low or below the knees. The Hines Ward rule makes it illegal to lead with the crown of the helmet into the chin to shatter an opponents jaw. There are others. Last night, Steeler Minkah Fitzpatrick will join that club as he ended Nick Chubb's season, and possibly his career, by diving head-first and forcefully into the side of Chubb's knee while he was being held up by a teammate. It was deliberate, and it was devastating. It was so bad that ESPN refused to broadcast the replay - it's absolutely stomach-turning. This mentality of attempting to injure opponents must end. It starts with the coaching staff and permeates the entire atmosphere of that team. Fitzpatrick and head coach Mike Tomlin must be held accountable. They won't, of course, as Goodell will continue to protect them. But the 31 owners not named Rooney must step forward now and put a stop to this.
