CobraCommander Posted April 21, 2023 Share Posted April 21, 2023 (edited) Calvin Ridley just got reinstated for this exact thing. A full year suspension. I can't find the video now put someone but together a montage of his plays after he got caught and it sure looked like he was purposefully going down after some catches.

Responding over here instead lol...I read that for 6 games, it's gambling on other sports but not the NFL. No idea if that's true... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IS is probably for illegal gambling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RVAskins Posted April 21, 2023 Share Posted April 21, 2023 Yet, the NFL loves sports betting and puts a team in Las Vegas. Betting on your own team should not be allowed but I don't see a problem betting on other sports. 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simmsy Posted April 21, 2023 Share Posted April 21, 2023 Rules for thee, but not for me. Yeah, the players should've known better, but the NFL welcomed all of these problems when they partnered up with betting. The reputation of the game was already in question, betting just makes the already dubious legitimacy of the NFL look more corrupt than ever. Ridley bet on the Falcons, he didn't bet against them. Shouldn't matter, but the NFL opened the door to this problem. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oraphus Posted April 21, 2023 Share Posted April 21, 2023 Toney was barely going to make the team anyway... Williams is a big hit for Det... i guess we dodged a bullet by drafting Doctson instead Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
London Kev Posted April 21, 2023 Share Posted April 21, 2023 It doesn't matter what the rules should be, it matters what the rules are, These players knew the rules and broke them, they're all ****ing dumbasses. 7 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The NFL must protect its integrity in regards to fixing games. Once they lose that, the NFL shield is chipped and may not be fixable. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are rules and parameters for everything. Not that hard to stay within the lines. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Est.1974 Posted April 21, 2023 Share Posted April 21, 2023 I do think it’s disappointing from the respect that Toney was a pretty decent roster player IMO. It’s just a pointless waste. That said, he’s done. Really pointless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
