“NFL–ALL THINGS VIOLENT”
==========

It is a big, fast, physical games.
NFL fans enjoy the action, big plays, big hits.

But when a player steps over the line, the NFL needs to do an intervention.

You want to see a horror hit that can have all types of implications?

His name is Azeez Al-Shaair of the Houston Texans.
A big history of a big hitter.
And a history of cheap shots that keep happening.

The victim, Jaguars high priced QB-Trevor Lawrence.

The incident, Lawrence scrambles left racing for a first down.  He gives himself up, slides and is automatically downed-play over.

Al-Shaair, closing in full bore, dives head first into Lawrence, helmet hit, and forearm to the face mask.

The force of the blow is so violent, Lawrence’s head snaps back and full force from the hit of the 240-pound LB, crashing onto the turf.  He suffers a concussion, his hands coming upright shaking, the first signs of trauma

Jaguars players jump onto the Houston linebacker in response.

Lawrence is down 7-minutes and carted off.  A concussion, and who knows how long he is out

It took nearly 18-hours for Al-Shaair to apologize, saying it was not his intent.

But the video shows the Houston linebacker had a clear picture of the slide, and took nearly two steps before he delivered the blow to a prone QB already down.  The slow motion picture speaks thousands of words about intent.

And now video surfaces of two other hits from early in the season that resulted in (2200) fines each time to the Texans player.  And a video also surfaces of him grabbing Tom Brady in Tampa by the throat in a tackle too.

Al-Shaair could have pulled up; could have now issued a forearm shiver; could have dove over Lawrence, who was already down on his wallet.

The rage around the NFL is everywhere.  Jaguars coach Doug Pederson, ‘there’s no place in the NFL for that’.  Houston coach D’Amico Ryans, ‘we don’t teach that there’.

And the past history of this player, should lead to a lengthy suspension and loss of game checks.

For the NFL-how long do you let this stuff go on?  Till somebody breaks a neck?  Till there is brain damage?

Repeat the offense, the penalty needs to get more severe.  For all the NFL has done to eliminate kill shots and hits on players, defenseless players, it still happens.

Oh by the way, at the end of his Monday apologize, he pulled out the ‘race card’ and the ‘Islamic religious card’ saying he has been buried on social media with all type of slants from haters across the country.

The Texans player intentionally tried to hurt the Jags QB; he violated a code, an honor, a rule to respect the other player.  And he compounds it after repeating these hits to bring up his color and his religion.

Cop out crap from a guy who should be taken off the field because that was his intent, and has been his intent for the way he has always played.

The NFL needs to stop this borderline violence under the banner of fast-furious-tough football.
