Can you just imagine someone sucker punching Elway, Staubach or Marino?

Bryant throws a cheap shot at a Dallas and former OSU teammate during camp. Newton goes Dez Bryant on a teammate and Smith from the Jets is out for over a month with a broken jaw due to a sucker punch.

I guess since the NFL is enforcing laws against domestic violence they are taking out on each other? http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.co...r-punched-in-jets-locker-room-out-6-10-weeks/
 
Teams always fight in training camp nothing new. The guy that punched smith has already been released and will never get another shot in the nfl. As long as football is a physical competitive sport there will always be scuffles at training camp.

The worst issue is teams tweeting out their own fights. Dallas tweeted the Dez Bryant scuffle earlier this year. Seems like its being encouraged. It's all fun and games until somebody get their jaw broken.

LOL! I think we've been around long enough to never use the word "never" in conjunction with the NFL. LOL. It's not like he clobbered Tom Brady. Although had he, he would've been on the side of a milk carton. He'll get another chance, but it won't be anytime soon and he'll be a looooooong shot to make it.

A linebacker sucker punching the quarterback seems a bit cowardly to me.

They've cleared that up today. It wasn't a sucker punch. Doesn't change a thing though. If Geno owed the 6th round pick $600, he was certainly in a far better position to pay the man back versus the 6th round pick fronting Geno the money. Certainly Geno had the obligation to talk to him and let him know when he'd do it - and not trash talk him with asked about it.

Im suprised i thought he would be black listed forever. Geno Smith cost rex ryan his job, im sure deep down he was happy he got knocked out. If nothing else rex ryan alway s keeps things interesting by stirring the pot.
