4 games for Garrett, 2 games for Pouncey, that's my guess.

Yeah but this was WAY over the line as far as "on the field" stuff.
I wouldnt be surprised later today to hear that whatever county Cleveland is in, starts a criminal investigation. This is akin to swinging a stick at a players head in hockey and we have seen that lead to police involvement afterwards.
I mean when your own quarterback is calling for you to be suspended, you know its a big deal. (Mayfield and Rudolph are long time friends and rivals mind you so that plays into it as well).
This thing is bigger than a football story already and has been splashed over every media outlet there is.
Ever since the Ray Rice debacle, it seems Goodell and crew have leaned to the longer suspension route and then allowed the appeal process to confirm or correct it.
Im guessing 10 games for MG and at least 4 for Pouncey whose actions are getting a bit lost in all this.Garrett was pinned to the ground by another Steeler and Pouncey proceeded to punch and then kick Garrett in the head.
This is a big black eye for the league and i expect the discipline to reflect that.
