I am still fuming over this one and couldn't care less what Suh did. That was nothing compared to this and nothing is going to happen :(

It was a football play in real speed. Doubt he tried to get the facemask. That happens sometimes. Come on guys.

"Doubt he tried to get the face mask" LOL - well he did, and then held on tight... long enough to wrench a player's head around 180 degrees.

I really like the Beaz.. He has given us another demention on offense this year..

He reminds me of my Cousins son #84 Brian Alvarez playing for University Wisconsin Stout BlueDevils.. He's the same size as Beasley & all honestly he's probably faster..
Dream if Cowboys gave him a look..

That image is scary. Try to make your head do that. Unless you're an owl it's not possible. Hopefully this is something Garrett sent to the league for review.

On a separate note, Cole's arms look like mine and I'm a weakling.

Put your head in that helmet and let us know how you feel.

That really has nothing to do with what he was talking about. Was it a penalty, yes. Should he face a fine, possibly. Should he be suspended, no. Did he do it purposely and with intent of trying to hurt Beasly, doubtful at best. Facemasks happen in football all the time. Wishing death on the guy like is happening in this thread is much more egregious behavior.

Not at all. He grabbed it and never let go.

Intent is clear.

I laugh at intent of a full speed face mask. You think it's easy to just let go when things are going at that speed? All it takes is a half a second (or less) for the head to get pulled around like that. That's why the facemask is a penalty, because when it's grabbed the head can get twisted very easily. If the players are going in opposing directions like that, at that speed, it's going to look a lot worse. Cole is cutting one way, and the defender is falling the other. It's not rocket science, and it doesn't make the intent any different than all the other facemasks.

Facemasks happen all the time, and up until just a few years ago, even had two distinct designations, so save your 'all or nothing' talk.

There are plenty of times when defenders grab them, realize they're doing it (unless they play in Detroit!) and release their hold!

This clown never even made an attempt to let go. He was bringing him down by the helmet and didn't care about anything else.

Intent was clear Mr. Cottrell!

We don't know the intent, but what we do know is that the guy never made an attempt to let go.

Sometimes it's possible to let go. If you really get the hand hooked in there, it's not so easy, especially if you're off balance. And if you're flying in the opposite direction, it doesn't matter if you let go, it's not going to happen before the head snaps around like Cole's did.
