He was suspended previously for a similar hit. That’s why it’s two games

 

[Creeper]

He should have been kicked out of the game on the spot. That was not just a head to had hit, Flournoy was on the ground in a very vulnerable position. If the league is serious about preventing head injuries then they have to take immediate and decisive action during games - like college football does with their targeting rule.

And yet not a single flag was thrown

Pitiful decision not to flag that hit. He clearly led with his head directly into Flournoy's head while already on the ground.

Isn't he appealing it as well? What a clown.

 

[Bagman]

Still hard to believe it wasn't a PF penalty. WTH

Have to believe they just didn’t see it. No ref would let that go.

I believe this the play that hurt Flournoy too.

They called a 15-yard unnecessary roughness penalty.

Like I said during the game thread, that’s what we used to call “spearing” and every football helmet I ever wore had a warning label not to use this helmet to “butt, ram, or spear an opponent”. Should have been an ejection

Should have been an ejection

Everyone sitting around me was screaming for an ejection. It was a blatant and obvious hit.
I started the chant and the entire section joined in. We were all stunned when it didn't happen.

well they need to do more than that to stop stuff like that.
fine the HC, the DC and assistants something substanial like 150 grand, and fine the player 100 grand.
And on deal like that hit all fine $ goes to the player that got hit !

Do that and this kind of thing will stop, but with the piddling fines they dole out to just the 1 player are a joke.

Brees said if that hit isn't an ejection, what is?

That was such a bs egregious foul I almost expected on field fisticuffs. But: that would imply the team had heart.

I think Flournoy is a stud in wait. I think maybe his more accredited/acclaimed teammates know it too.

He plays hard & confident. He might be a #1 WR in this league soon. I hope he remains in Dallas.

Good. It was a dirty hit by a dirty player. The good news is Flo’s knee injury wasn’t serious. Serious like he tore an ACL. I got concerned, and confused, because I was listening to 105.3 The Fan after the game and they were talking about Flo’s knee injury and it being serious enough to have him miss games next year. That scared me.
