CZ POLL How many games will Elliott be suspended after Henderson's appeal ruling?

[PA Cowboy Fan]

Yea I need to change my vote to 6. I guess I was too optimistic at the time.

 

[remdak]

4.75 games

If it is relevant to the case then why did they not include it in the report?

Who would know?

 

[FuzzyLumpkins]

Who would know?

It was a rhetorical question. Either the NFL is lying or the NFL is hiding relevant information. Either way speaks to the conspiracy case.

 

[Redball Express]

Thought it would be fun to guess what the outcome will be from Henderson's ruling that should be announced later today.

Making lemonade out of lemons..huh?

 

[fishspill]

Season, for questioning the NFL's power.

If it is relevant to the case then why did they not include it in the report?

If they had other information about Elliot roughing up some other girl who didn't report it then it wouldn't be smart for the NFL to release that because it would look worse than it does now they only released what the public already knows so far

The 6 games can be reduced to something less considering "mitigating circumstances".

It doesn't have to be 6 or 0. It can be something in between.

That's what doesn't make sense, if there are potential mitigating circumstances that would warrant reducing the #of games below the min requirement, then why have a started minimum requirement?

6

It depends entirely on what this extra evidence is. If it's simply more heresay from texts or interviews with the alleged victim, that does nothing to improve her credibility or grant validity to the accusations. If it's truly concrete evidence of abuse, are we to believe the National Football League is that much better at felony investigations than the local and state authorities of Ohio?

Also,they should have released it already as an accused should know the total basis for a decision. Also his/her defense should know what they are disagreeing with. Otherwise it's hide the evidence good or bad to get the result you want. Maybe Roberts objected to this type of tactic hence her non inclusion in the outcome

 

[CWR]

6 games.

Exactly, you could almost see the NFLs line in the sand. They have stubbornly dug in and are to arrogant to back down.

 

[Teague31]

What did I win?

 

[Jake]

Did anyone really think the appeal was going to change anything?

 

[cowboyblue22]

so ed werder is getting to read privilege information that the public and other reporters are not getting to see how is that he gets to do this

 

[Vintage]

What did I win?

6 games of no Zeke, lol

 

[haleyrules]

This will not have a happy ending.

 

[ABQCOWBOY]

This will not have a happy ending.

Probably true but, if Zeke kinda learns from all of this, it will be well worth it IMO. Ending will be much, much worse, if he doesn't learn from it. Need this guy on the field long term. He's going to get big, big money on his next contract. If it's us, I hope it's for a player that has learned the lessons this whole thing teaches. JMO

Closing this thread since the ruling has been made. For the 98 of you who predicted a 6 game suspension would remain, congratulations you pessimists!!
