Not "not touched", just "not pummeled". You can absolutely try to knock the ball out of a jumping receiver's hands, or use your body weight to force one at the boundary line out of bounds. Neither of those involves launching with the helmet or shoulders. Those kinds of hits can potentially hospitalize, paralyze, or as in one case, kill an opponent.

I think his prior history played a big factor in the suspension. This incident is now the 6th time this season in which he will be fined. He was previously fined for: Hit on defenseless player - Week 12 Hit on defenseless player - Week 8 Impermissible use of helmet - Week 8 Impermissible use of helmet - Week 7 Unsportsmanlike Conduct - Week 2 |

I 100% thought the ejection was fair, I like how the stripes didn't mess around and just ejected him. When I read yesterday that he was suspended for the remainder of the season, I thought that was a bit extreme until I read Sunny's post. Fsck that Kazee guy. He paid 59k in fines for what Sunny mentioned, will miss out on $208k in game checks. His base salary is $1.2M. A 17.3% pay cut is an expensive forced incompletion. No One: What does Tom Brady think? Tom Brady: "Nobody likes seeing players get hurt. But hard hits happen. QBs should not be throwing the ball in areas where they are exposing their own teammates to these types of hits. Coaches need to coach better, QBs needs to read coverages and throw the ball to the right places and defenders should aim for the right hitting areas. To put the blame on the [defensive] player all the time is just flat-out wrong. Need better QB play!! It's not OK QBs to get your WRs hit because of your bad decisions!"

That's the reason for the suspension, you could argue that he should already have been suspended.
What i also liked was that Mike Tomlin just accepted it on the field, he was not arguing the decision at all. I am not sure there are many other coaches who would have reacted how he did. Tomlin is up there as one of the best Head Coaches of the past 20 years. He gets the best out of his players, and creates a solid coaching staff year in year out. |

GTFO of the league already. Same goes to their TE and small receiver who thinks he's tough. YOU take that hit and we'll see what you say THEN!

Kazee appealed the suspension and he has now lost the appeal.
The arbiter ruled that Kazee will be suspended for the remaining regular season games. However, Kazee could be activated for the playoffs if the Steelers somehow make the post season. https://twitter.com/NFLfootballinfo/...41314047697038 Quote:

Yep. Ridiculous for that douchebag to say something like that considering he threw a temper tantrum anytime a defender got w/in 5 feet of him and a flag wasn't thrown.
