1st, That cheap shot on JuJo was classeless and dangerous.
But I remeber last year when Haynsworth stepped on Gurode's head. The thing that bothered me most was our team failed to step in. Made me wonder??
Flash to this year. Both Gurode and Colombo are all over that punk. Thats the sign of a team. Notice the refs let it go?
New team, new toughness. LOL!
I noticed a couple of things on that play...Lajuan Ramsey, #77, went for the 'piledriver' play while the other Eagle defender basically lifted JJ up to be prime for the dangerous hit of a helmet to helmet in the first place...Dangerous, dangerous, dangerous sequence of events.
Noticed that Gurode and Colombo got in their faces and did not get any penalties from the refs, refs deserve some prudence and credit for that.
Yet, not ejecting that Ramsey clown is really troubling, IMHO.
It's a reality jolt that this game is a very violent one that doesn't need excessive violence...It's the part of the game that makes it hard for me to return to it...I get no pleasure seeing people looking to paralyze people, regardless of the helmet/team it is.
Really took the steam out of the victory, for me...Curious to see what the league does to him...Doubtful it'll be in excess of a 20K fine...Meanwhile, JJ is lucky to not be in some hospitable bed as a quad....Not to mention that Witten, too, suffered a similarly dirty hit of a helmet to helmet on his highlight reel play last night.
On a positive note, either Reid or Jimmy Johnson were responsible but Ramsey was benched after that incident...Kudos for the move
