Shit it looked like it was Jordan Phillips that did it had to rewatch a few times.
Wait. Unruly fans in Philly? I am absolutely shocked here!!! 🙄
Not good not good.
I don’t blame him one but. Football is incredibly emotional and these fans are just complete jackasses. Gotta contain yourself, but he’s human too, it’s normal to get pissed off
People are entitled to their feelings. They are not entitled to their actions.
Do you think this is the first NFL game in history in which a fan has heckled an opposing player?
There’s no way for a player to “win” that situation. Best off just staying away and asking for team security to handle it if it’s truly out of bounds. I have no doubt that what was said would have warranted a beating if said to his face on the street (not advocating for that, just pointing out the protection fans have by being in a stadium vs saying it to a dude on the street).
Ah yes, words should definitely be met by physical harm, great take there.
“not advocating for that”
100%. I’m pretty sure, regardless of the stadium, if a player says “Hey that guy right there said XYZ, please have him removed.” That would be the end of it. It’s not like players are used to insults being hurled at them so we have to know it was something terrible.
Yeah. I hate the whole “well they’re athletes and emotions are high”.
Bitch there was coke on the sales floor where I worked, kegs, and aggressive growth goals. I ain’t shoving anyone.
Shit happens. Hopefully no suspensions or fines come from this
Why? What a baffling comment. You think it’s okay for players to be violent with fans for talking shit? By doing nothing the league would basically be saying it’s open season on fans. I hope he is punished. Most of us in this thread would be out on our ass jobless if we pulled this at work. He’s a person just like us and should face the same consequences just like us.
No.
Example needs to be made. Professional athletes should NEVER go near opposing fans during a game. That’s just common sense. Beyond that, pros shouldn’t engage any random normal person. There’s no challenge there, especially when they’re padded up. Don’t make this normal behavior. There’s enough of that shit in the world already.
Luckilly for the Bills, it was a horse collar push, so absolutely no consequences are warranted.
This is one of those things that should be zero tolerance. Fine every time and probably a suspension. There can’t be any leniency on approaching and pushing a fan. Same way fans can be banned for throwing things at or dumping beers on players.
davante adams shoved a random boom mic guy and the league didnt do anything
I’d argue there’s a clear difference between going out of your way to approach a fan in the stands to shove him and pushing over a boom operator who you saw one second prior and pushed as he was in your way. Obviously Adams shouldn’t have pushed over the boom guy, but it seems like much more a spur of the moment frustration done to someone working for the NFL, as opposed to going out of your way to shove a paying fan who is in the stands.
Nah disagree, fans think they can say whatever they want to players with zero impunity. If you wanna say some foul shit be prepared for the consequences
Yes, going out of your way to incite violence is the answer to the big bad mean words
Agreed. Putting hands on someone for talking trash is going to get you fired at most places of employment. You just can’t go around doing that no matter how obnoxious the other person is.
Hard agree. Idk if the “fan” is calling you the most racist, hateful, inappropriate things. Security needed to be alerted and the fan kicked out. And it’s honestly the better response from the player like “I don’t even care about you at all, but you’re getting kicked out for life.”
I’m generally in agreement, but I think since it was an eagles fan we can all agree to let this one slide.
Lol’d
bills players are bitches lmao
I switched teams when I knew they weren’t winning shit
And you chose the Lions?
Dweeb behavior tbh
The heck? Is that even allowed?
This team throws the most immature temper tantrums I swear.
It’s Eagles fans, can you really blame him?
Bills fans are just Eagles fans who haven’t gotten to gloat about beating enough teams for other people to hate them. If the Bills had won a championship when their window was open, I’m sure the “jumping through tables” narrative would have a very different connotation.
Lol he touched the fan, very lightly. He didn’t “shove” him. Thank god he didn’t brotherly shove him, man he would have went backward 3 yards.
Isnt Philips the guy that had the dirty plays during the game too?
While the game is still going on too? Lmao
Yeah I thought this was the end with everyone celebrating after Hurts scored. The game is still in the balance and guys can’t even stay focused? Bills are cooked
Hilarious. Chirping someone so hard you get a reaction is the goal. Winning the 4th phase of the game
