Ray Ray1 Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 Why is he a turd? All Browner is doing is trying to exploit a situation to gain a competitive advantage. This is the NFL, not some ballet symposium. You're right, this is the NFL, but we'll have to wait and see if Browner crosses the line somewhere, which based on Patriot history, that seems plausible, the Pats don't know any better.

jack48 Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 How is suggesting this different than what the Saints were penalized for? Everybody knows teams try to behead QBs. The 'saints offered extra compensation for it. Dumb, and cost them a coach for a year. Everybody knows teams go after injured players. Trumpeting it pre game should get you a fat fine. It is all about the image. For that matter, I would expect Browner to get a large dose of Lynch and friends early. That is how things are done. But why he did warrants a fine.

Patriot Killa Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 This is easily targeting. Sad what a year with the Patriots can do to a man's humanity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FidelioJet Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 i hope they suspend him for targeting In all seriousness....This isn't much different from Bounty Gate.... Telling guys to hurt others as opposed to offering a bounty for it....I mean, the book was thrown at the Saints, this should certainly warrant a suspension.

Integrity28 Posted January 27, 2015 Author Share Posted January 27, 2015 The repercussions for saying things like this are much worse for a player than a fan. It's worse, way worse, when a fan says it because their only purpose is to give up some money and act entertained. At least Browner actually gains something from winning this game. Serious question - what does a fan face for saying things like that? Browner is on the field. Fans risk being shamed by other fans that lecture them from a moral high ground. Players risk bountygate-like repercussions, in an NFL that administers rules and punishment evenly, not in this NFL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, if he was a Saint he would be hammered with a heavy fine and suspension - but being that he's a Pat he'll get a slap on the wrist. He shouldn't be able to play in this game Sunday.

OTOH further proof that the proles WANT to be policed. I just re watched CA2 last night. Stupid sh*t like this is willfully and deceitfully taken out of context to what end?

We see it here every time one fan says "I hope ____ breaks his ******* ____", then the horde piles on that guy for saying something so "unclassy". For players, I do think one could argue that the risk - read: risk - is something Saints-like in punishment. I'm not saying they are the same, and as I said, it won't happen, but depending upon the politics in the league and media, one could imagine a scenario where a player is made an example of to that effect. I don't think that's a stretch, the NFL likes to pick and choose who to make their examples of. Anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Players were suspended who were in positions of leadership that were not knowingly involved in going after players to hurt or maime - this included the HC who was suspended because he was the HC. What is the difference - that there wasn't $ involved or there isn't a pattern. Again when a player states to go after an injured player to hurt him more with potential consequences to ruin a career - this exactly the message the NFL was sending. Classy organization by the way.

Cyberjet Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 You do have to love the fact that after '5 martini' Kraft gives his heartfelt speech about the class of the Patriot organization their starting CB tells his teammates to go out and maime players. Have another martini Bob. With all the loose lips and Ryan giving free reign to his players to talk to the press never heard a Jet player imply this. Browner quote is priceless and at the very least gives great bulletin board material for the Seahawks which you know BB loves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vincenzo69 Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 No, Greg Williams got suspended for paying a bounty it injure players. Browner did not pay anyone. Completely different situations. Your boy Browner also did steroids too. Who will you be rooting for in 3 years after Brady's stats fall off from not being able to cheat anymore and he retires "to spend more time with Giselle?"
