Those trying to defend Myles Garrett’s violent helmet-swinging act against Mason Rudolph look foolish

I have a question: How much do people hate the Pittsburgh Steelers?

I’m only asking because I spent an entire offseason listening to national NFL reporters, analysts, pundits and former players defend the actions of former Steelers and (shocker) NFL receiver Antonio Brown’s transgressions that saw him burn every bridge on the way out of Pittsburgh.

Regardless of all the things Brown may have done or said, as far as many were concerned, the general sentiment was, “But what role did Ben Roethlisberger have in all of this?” Others looked at things with a broader scope, but they still tried to blame the team’s “toxic” work environment for Brown going, you know, crazy.
