Brandon Meriweather suspended 2 games for 6th violation of player safe (1 Viewer)

The Redskins would be better off ditching this guy, instead of constantly expecting him to play and having him not play.

 
I hate how they have shaped the rules but that said Merriweather is one of the worst in the league, a punk of biblical proportions that needed at least a 2 game suspension, 4 would not have bothered me a bit.

 
I hated that the Patriots drafted him. Not only is he a poor football player, but he's a POS too. His history suggests he'd be in prison if not for football.

 
Get caught getting high three times: get suspended for a year.

Hit someone with a dirty, cheap shot on the field six times: get a two game suspension.

Yeah, the NFL is real concerned with getting rid of dirty play. :no:

Use a little common sense. Smoking week is illegal, something you can go to jail for. Hitting someone without wrapping them up with your arms is a technicality in a game. Hardly comparable.

I think it bridges the gap from sports move into battery - at least when it comes to Merriweather.

Legality is great...but when they are pushing all this player safety stuff and facing lawsuits about it...I think it would send a bigger message if a repeat offender like this got hit with more than 2 games.

 
The NFL got their sacrificial lamb two years ago. Outrage achieved, PR victory secured, back to not caring.

 
Count me as another Skins fan who detests Merriweather. Illegal head hunter and below avg safety.

Sadly, he is one of the two best safeties on the team but man I can't until this guy know longer wears a burgundy and gold uniform.

As a Skins fan, when he hits an opponent in the head and the opponent is hurt, I find myself wishing Merriweather had hurt himself instead.

 
Smoke weed, get suspended for a year. Violate the player safety rules SIX times, get suspended for two games. Yeah the nfl truly cares about player safety.
