nfl fights

The NFL league is one of the most assertive and competitive leagues. In the game of football, actual fights are uncommon since players spend the majority of their energy regularly banging heads and tossing one another to the floor. Today we will take a look at the 5 Most Brutal Fights in the NFL.

St. Louis Rams Vs New York Giants

Odell Bekham Jr. started a fight with the St. Louis edition of the team and his team while he was a part of the New York Giants. He rejoiced in front of an opponent upon scoring a touchdown in the opening frame. In the second quarter, Rams player Alec Ogletree did not take it well. He used a late hit to knock Odell Beckham Jr. over the sidelines, which led Beckham to react by evicting Ogletree. Soon, there was a brawl, and William Hayes of the Rams and Giants’ Damontre Moore and Preston Parker was ejected for punching.

Cleveland Browns Vs Pittsburgh Steelers

Mason Rudolph of the Pittsburgh Steelers and Myles Garrett of the Cleveland Browns got into a brawl in one of the worst episodes ever witnessed on a football field. Garrett yanked Rudolph’s helmet completely off of the quarterback for the Steelers, striking his uncovered head with it. Both groups of men got into a fight as a result.

For shoving Rudolph from behind, Myles Garrett’s teammate Larry Ogunjobi was also dismissed from the game. Maurkice Pouncey, a center for Pittsburgh, was also dismissed for kicking Garrett when he was held to the ground during the brawl.

The Bounty Bowl (1989)

When former Dallas head coach Jimmy Johnson claimed that Philadelphia head coach Buddy Ryan had placed a reward on two of his men, quarterback Troy Aikman and kicker Luis Zendejas, the hostility between the two vengeful NFC East rivals reached a new level.

 

After a kickoff that resulted in a concussion, Philadelphia linebacker Jessie Small was spotted tackling Zendejas hard during a lopsided Thanksgiving game that the Eagles won by a score of 27-0. It also gave both teams the reason to lose control.

 

2.Chicago Bears Vs St. Louis Cardinals

Chicago Bears Vs St. Louis Cardinals

Not even the regular season or postseason saw this vintage brawl. In 1986’s preseason, a massive brawl broke out between the Chicago Bears and the St. Louis Cardinals. The current Chicago club faced off against the previous franchise in what would otherwise be a trivial game, and in the third quarter, a fight broke involving about every player.

 

Three players from St. Louis and one from Chicago were both kicked out. Pete Rozelle, the NFL commissioner, punished 51 players in response to the event.

 

  1. Kansas City Chiefs vs Oakland Raiders

We conclude our list of fights with one that highlights a rivalry. In order to squander time in 1970, Kansas City Chiefs player Len Dawson did go down on his own on a first down. Ben Davidson, a lineman with the Raiders, struck him with his helmet to start the fight.

 

The play was then called back by the officials, and on the succeeding play, the Raiders secured a stop and proceeded to tie the match and win the AFC championship.
