Bennett Should Have Been Ejected for this Attack

I can't find the full video, but if memory serves correctly, he shoved him down again after this video cuts off.  The initial block was fine, but I do think he took it too far.  Bennett seems to almost have something personal against Dalton... did they play each other in college, or did Andy beat his team in a Texas State Championship or something back in the day??

Hmmmmm....I dunno.  Maybe he was still mad from 2011? LOL

Anyway, the only thing that angers me a little is that it was unprovoked.  However, I stood behind Pacman only deserving a fine, so I stand there on this one too.

On a side note, I was once ejected for slobberknocking a guy for doing something similar to my QB years ago.... LMAO

Agree, it is not worthy of a suspension.  I am not entirely sure how they determine the amount of a fine, but do think he'll be $20k or so "less rich" this week.

On a side note... if the NFL really wants to make a difference, perhaps they should make the fine a percentage of salary or something of that nature.  $20k to most of these guys is, literally, pocket change.  I sincerely doubt it acts as a deterrent.

I did watch the whole video.  Multiple different versions of it.  I do not see it as targeting the QB.  Dalton isn't the quarterback anymore, he's a potential tackler.  Bennett is allowed to block him and finish the block.  In a college game I watched this weekend a ref got taken out because an offensive player was finishing a block long after the play was past him and the guy he was blocking had no chance of making the tackle.  But that's what they're taught, keep hitting and blocking until you hear a whistle.  It just so happened that Dalton got worked over.

You must not have seen his first hit on Dalton.  It was a blind shot in the back, and that is a blatant penalty, which was missed.  The fact that he went after him after knocking him down and hit him several more times isn't so much my issue.  I don't think that video captured the initial hit.  I forget which site showed the whole video.

You must be new to football, well let me explain the difference for you bud, one instance was a qb who was far far from the play who wasnt going to even try to tackle the guy and even if he did try, didnt have the speed, other instance was a athletic qb who was in position and tried to make a play and got blocked.

The precedent has already been set by the league. He was not going to make a play on the ball, thus making the Dlineman's actions unnecessary to say the least.

Absolutely didn't need ejected. Penalty was all that was needed.

It wasn't missed, they did call that penalty. That is what negated Earl Thomas 60 something yard return.  I'm on board with the illegal block penalty. But I do not think he deserved an ejection a fine or a suspension.

Perhaps more importantly to those that determine fines, etc. is what if this hit or hits, I should say, were on Tom Brady, Peyton Manning, or Andrew Luck? 

If anyone did that to Brady they would be out of the league like shit through a goose. Kraft would probably have them dumped in the nearest river with concrete shoes.

I don't know, it kind of looks like a punch at the end.

Remember we got over on Pacman being allowed to remove his helmet on the field as well. That should be a flag10/10 times.

But then again Pacman didn't call fair catch and with that return we could've came back quicker.


Refs have to find the line between enforcing the game and changing it. They changed the game today and it was annoying

The Adam Jones helmet thing made no real difference.  It was 9 yards.

He deserved all that and more.  He threw Andy BACK DOWN to the ground after the initial hit, took some swings at him, and wouldn't let him get up.  NFL Cannot allow that.

This is why I think the NFL should come down hard on him.  You don't go after a QB like that.
