[QUOTE="Mijapi, post: 743259, member: 12695"] If you’re talking about the horse collar tackle out of bounds on Kap, that was an extremely dirty play. I can’t remember if he got suspended or not, but he should have. And that was my thought watching it live. It was legitimately one of those moments where I was cursing at my television asking Matthews why he made such a stupid decision. That’s also not comparable to this situation anyways - Clay’s hit was illegal, no question. Barr’s hit was legal. It is the rule that needs to either change or be enforced more strictly. I don’t think Barr should be disciplined in any manner for the hit, because it would be ridiculous to punish a player for playing within the current rules. But he had plenty of time between the release of the ball and the point of contact. There are two possibilities - he was malicious in his intent, or his awareness is [B]that bad [/B]that he didn’t realize the ball was gone two steps back. Just making a wild assumption that a player with that poor of awareness wouldn’t be on a starting roster, there’s no option left. He wanted to lay a hurting on Rodgers when the rules gave him the opportunity to. He [I]probably [/I]wasn’t trying to cause serious or permanent damage. But to say his intent was anything other than hurting Rodgers is naive in my mind. [/QUOTE]
