Rudolph and the Steelers seemed to think that the game wasn't over, they were passing the ball, instead of taking a knee.  Again, not making excuses for either player, just calling it as I see it.  Even if Garrett's tackle was something Rudolph took offense too, I have never seen a QB try to rip a players helmet off.  I think that was done in frustration over the night that Rudolph had, Garrett's tackle was the nudge that popped his cork.  All the players involved had a part in what happened.  I didn't see any innocent bystanders.Finally, I don't care what Rudolph said or didn't say to Garrett, Garrett never mentioned any of that prior to his appeal and now it sounds like its just an excuse to try and justify what he did.I still think Rudolph deserves a fine and a 1 game suspension.  I also would like to see Garrett's suspension bleed over to at least 1 game next season, just as a refresher and reminder to start the season as to what happens to players that do what he did.</blockquote>
