As per PD Rams page. Hope Long gets off light since panthers provoke it. Still ps'ed about the refs!
I agree on Long and if Dahl was responding to a taunt I can see giving him a pass
But there are smarter ways to BE chippy and IMO Dahl and Long AUGHT to BE the very guys counseling our young guys about it, NOT the guys who need to be "counseled" just sayin

Well yeah I can say "Harvey , look the guy up on the next play/possession .I still don't buy the Long threw a punch crap, I've looked over that thing like nine million times I don't see one punch thrown, all I see is Long trying to break up the fray and got called for being the 'late' man.
As for Dahl, can you blame him? There's really no way to deride him going after a guy who was gloating over a guy who he knew was injured.
There's no comparison in Finnegan pissing off Morgan and Dahl getting upset because somebody was cheering over injuring one of his teammates and lets not pretend Mitchell didn't know, he looked right at him and raised his hands high above his head like he had just scored the GWTD.Well yeah I can say "Harvey , look the guy up on the next play/possession .
We clearly won a game last year BECAUSE Finnegan knew how that game works for and against you. I don't "blame " people for getting angry and wanting to act out the way those guys did, but when it hurts your teams chances it lapses into selfishness and FWIW Chris apologized to the team because he gets it
Anybody remember the time Jackie Slater interrupted Gastineau's sack dance?

I never saw a punch either. Nothing even close to one. All he had was his arm outstretched and his hand was open at the time. My guess is he said something REALLY bad at the time. Something that probably would have made George Carlin blush.I still don't buy the Long threw a punch crap, I've looked over that thing like nine million times I don't see one punch thrown, all I see is Long trying to break up the fray and got called for being the 'late' man.

Seemed to be what I saw, Long threw a punch with his words.I never saw a punch either. Nothing even close to one. All he had was his arm outstretched and his hand was open at the time. My guess is he said something REALLY bad at the time. Something that probably would have made George Carlin blush.
And then went on to publicly threaten Jenkins with bodily harm on camera to the media?You mean unlike Steve Smith who had is hand balled up in a fist and was ready to throw?

Nah dude what I'm saying is Carolina won the game and it was due in no small measure to guys on our team losing their cool.There's no comparison in Finnegan pissing off Morgan and Dahl getting upset because somebody was cheering over injuring one of his teammates and lets not pretend Mitchell didn't know, he looked right at him and raised his hands high above his head like he had just scored the GWTD.
You're comparing a guy shoving somebody and getting him to throw a ball at him to a guy getting steamed because some dude acted like he won the Super Bowl because he contributed in somebody tearing their ACL. Where's the comparison? Dahl wasn't trying to work anything into his favor, he was pissed because somebody flippantly disregarded somebody else's health like it meant nothing. Also he's a guard, how would he even be remotely in the vicinity to light up a safety?
At that point the game was out of reach and we sure as hell weren't going to come back dramatically with Clemens coming off cold from the bench. I don't have any problem with him going after a guy like that and I don't mind anybody else on the team taking example.

I'm also sayin that Dahl could just as easily done WAY more harm to the Freak wad if he'd played it smarter.
In all the years I've watched football. I think Suh may. be the only guy Ive seen do enough damage in a fight to make the penalty worth it.
Dahl IMO should have taken the guys number and looked him up on the next play and put him next in line behind Sam for an MRI
