Undisciplined

No question it was an illegal hit. Split second to make a decision, that's fine, shit happens. Throw the flag and march off 15. None of that is the problem IMO. The problem is he led with his forearm trying to pop the dude into next week. That's where it went from a regular ol illegal roughing 15 yard penalty to also a dirty hit worthy of an ejection.
He was lounging for his chest. And Trevor head hit the turf and that’s what caused the concussion.
 
I think the reason why it got so bad is the area it happened on the field.. right along the Jaguars' sideline.. DeMeco was on the other side of the field. Plus a mob of pissed off NFL players is not something I'd want to jump in the middle of.
Yup. I was rewatching the whole fight melee thing. I saw Al-Shaair get his helmet shoved into the ground, then swarmed by sissy blues. He was knocked down again and then grabbed in the facemask. All this happened before Al-Shaair took his helmet off. I’m not condoning it. I’m just saying I can understand him being ready to defend himself.
 
God what an idiot this Al-Shaair is. That statement is so dumb.

I get and appreciate DeMeco standing by his players and the play itself wasn't nearly as bad as everyone thinks but man, it sure sucks that he has to defend such a dumbass.
He can defend him all he wants. This is the second incident where Demeco has blamed opposing players for his own player being out of control.
 
I had just copied from X and planned to post it but you guys are too quick.

The suspension is warranted. And I agree with anyone saying this coaching staff isn’t holding players accountable. For anything it seems. Tunsil and Al-Shaair are poster children for this.

What's Tunsil not being held accountable for?

He wasn't practicing earlier this year because he was playing on a bad ankle. Now that it's better he's practicing.
 
The linebacker created the brawl. Accountability is really an issue for some of you.
You're right. I don't understand why you need to post this over 50 times, but you're right. Al-Shaair gave a dirty hit and he (and his team) have been punished severley. But fake slides in the past have occurred and are in some defenders minds. And while Lawrence's slide was not too late, it was late. Could and should Al-Shaair have broke off the tackle and not led with a forearm? Yes and yes.

Hasn't this been litigated enough? The punishment has been laid out. There's nothing more to learn here.

Blaming the QB for sliding is asinine. It wasn’t anywhere near late and is just another excuse that good teams don’t make.
 
Crazy to think a professional athlete moving at full speed should be able to stop on a dime to accommodate the rules. I rewatched the play and Trevor took his time sliding in an effort to get a few extra yards instead of going down immediately. Azeez has 1 unnecessary roughness penalty all season and it was the hit on Trevor. Continued disregard for the game is just silly. He plays fast, tough and hard. This idea he’s a dirty player is silly

5 yards closes in a heart beat on that field. With two ppl going towards each other I’m sure it’s less than half a sec. That’s why Trevor is injured majority of the times, he doesn’t make wise decisions on the field
