If Beckham's behavior doesn't warrant a suspension, I don't know what does. He and the Carolilna defensive back should have been thrown out of the game, and Beckham should have been suspended for the intentional helmet-to-helmet hit. I would have also suspended the officiating crew for failing to keep the game under control.

Agreed, as long as the Carolina player was suspended as well...

If it's overturned it means other factors played in. Gay slurs. Swinging bat and making threats etc. I mean the Panthers already said only a practice squad member had the bat. Until video showed Norman had it too.

I think this is where he gets off (if he actually does). It was definitely a Helmet to Helmet but I don't think it was intentional simply because Beckham is not a skilled defensive guy and he just launched at the guy to light him up and that was the result. Another point on his side of the argument was the refs letting it go on and virtually doing nothing about it outside of penalties.

People are judging him harshly without knowing what the entire panther team was during pregame warmups. They were using a baseball bat to intimidate him and making gay slurs at him. Panthers are not the only team that has been harassing him with gay slurs. Norman should have been suspended and the Carolina head coach should have also been suspended for allowing his team to bring a bat to warmups.
