To my knowledge this was after they were told stop.
If that's true, issue of other teams becomes moot.
This seems to bemore prevalent in the NFL than we would like to think.
Football is about Violence and intimidation. Rushing the QB is not about being nice to him and to simply tell him no to throw the ball it is about the threat of serious bodily harms while you're going at him... That is the very basic nature of the game.. That is what deep inside people who love football know... To convince yourself how truly violent a football game is, watch it from the sidelines and see how much real blood is spilled on the field...
I do find his words despicable, objectionable... The fine line he crossed was to promise rewards for actual and immediate not incidental hurts ... Hitting the adversary in ways to hurt him is, however, implicit to football .. The adversary has to be entirely conscious of the threat of bodily harms.. Where he is wrong and become a thug is in calling specifically for the harm to come in a specific fashion but harm comes in football regularly and often silently ..
If violence and bodily harm are eliminated from football there is no more American football.. Same will apply to other inherently violent games such as Rugby, Australian footbal , etc... You remove the real violence it becomes a Broadway play.
Uhhhh ... I love football
