If you watching real time Garrett gets to Rudolph literally as he's throwing the ball or within a split second.. you can see Garrett's helmet in Rudolph's chest... He may or may not have even known Rudolph had released that ball... In my mind it's impossible for him to have even stopped his momentum... As they go to the ground it looks like Garrett is laying on him for an extra amount of time... But really what's going on from the other angle is Rudolph is immediately trying to rip Garrett helmet off... As Garrett starts to get up and Rudolph kicks Garrett in the groin...at that point Garrett comes back and grabs Rudolph's helmet and tears it off...Garretts literally walking away at this point when Rudolph gets up like a little [mod edit] and goes to attack Garrett again.... At this point there's three Pittsburgh Steelers on Garrett.. This is when Garrett swings to helmet and hits him.... Rudolph then pulls the victim card by raising his hands as if he did nothing... And then gets pushed to the ground.... Where Garrett cross the line is when he swung the helmet... He shouldn't have done that... He definitely shouldn't have swung that helmet..... But to say that Rudolph didn't instigate this from the beginning is ridiculous.... Rudolph's a little punk... A primadonna that was pissed off cuz he got sacked several times and threw multiple interceptions... And then in his press conference took no responsibilities for any of his actions.... He's a little punk.... The only thing Garrett did wrong was hit him in the head with the helmet he should have just walked away.... But no doubt Rudolph deserves a suspension also
