Is no news good news for Crowder?

by Matty I on Nov 25, 2008 8:36 PM EST in News Comment 20 comments

On NFL Total Access tonight, Adam Schefter reported that the league has not yet made a decision on either Channing Crowder and Matt Light regarding their little fight on Sunday. But both players were ejected from the game, meaning at least a fine is likely.

However, Schefter points out that the league generally likes to suspend players earlier in the week so that teams can prepare to play without one of their players. So is the fact that neither has been suspended as of now a good sign for Crowder? I'm led to believe that it is - though news could still break at any time between now and the end of the week.

I'd say we'll likely hear something from the league by Wednesday night. If Crowder makes it through tomorrow without being suspended, I would doubt the league would announce to suspend a player on Thanksgiving. Not only is it a holiday, but it's also rather late in the week to inform a team that they'll be playing without one of their key players.

Either way, you have to imagine that Channing will avoid any suspension. After all, what did he really do other than shove a player after the whistle - something that happens all the time?

If you missed it, video of the altercation can be seen after the jump - for as long as YouTube keeps the video up, of course.

And yes, Matt Light is still a girl.

Matty...prepare to see a blogger go ape shit...

If Matt Light isnt suspended at least a game. That Jets safety got a game for his hit on Boldin..and that was an accident. I swear….ill lose it. Pulls off the helmet…charges him..pull hair….punches BACK OF HEAD twice…maybe 3 times.

No news is good news......and maybe just maybe

this is it. They were both ejected from the game afterall, maybe that will be punishment enough……great Rzayo just typed something, now I gotta read it……….yea…pulling hair should get something added on.

I hope it's good news for Crowder

But, the hammer is still going to fall. There’s no way Goodell let’s this fly in HIS league. He suspends players for clean hits. Light HAS to face a suspension, which means the announcement is still coming, which means Crowder could still have something coming down.

Like I said in my perspectives post, I think Crowder is facing a 1-2 game suspension. Not saying he did anything wrong, but it’s the way the NFL is right now. I think Light should have a 4 game suspension coming. We’ll see…

Just a theory...

I’m guessing Light will be suspended…but only after the Pittsburg game. Of course the NFL dosen’t want anything to happen to the favorite team !

saw this on espn

http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/news/story?id=3728213

i cant believe that Matt Light didnt get suspended!!!

He was throwing punches, they both even got fined the same amount. How can you get suspended for hitting someone with your helmet at game speed and not meaing to and not get suspended for punching someone!! This is ridic
