What should the NFL do to Dante Wesley

[BlueNGold]

I say suspend him 2 games and maybe a fine as well.

Yes sir.

Homers make me sick... and I felt like puking several times whilst reading this thread.

I still don't understand how leaping into a player is a good way to soften the hit.

Dude, you need a lesson in football if you seriously think that happened on accident. There are hundreds and hundreds of punts in a season and how often do you see this?

Accident is running in to a guy because he moves into your path at the last minute. Accident is getting blocked into a returner. You don't project yourself like a missile at a stationary returner on accident.

Totally agree.

Lost in all of this was Talib trying to do his best Lagarette Blount. As far as Wesley, at least a 2 game suspension.

One of the NYJ players tried to do a Lagarette Blount on special teams as well and got ejected. He'll probably be fined heavily as well as Calvin Pace for driving Trent Edwards' head into the ground after he was down.

The hit didn't look nearly as bad as described. In fact, it wasn't even nearly as hard as some of the other "questionable" calls against defensive players this year. With that said, the referees did right. Eject Wesley for his poor unsporstman-like actions. The NFL will fine him and probably suspend him a game, but anything more than that, I feel, would be over-doing it. The reason the NFL probably WILL over-punish this guy is because he's not a marquee name.
