All defensive players are rewarded for hurting their opponents, its called their contracts.

The media has made that the scoop, because it intrigues readers/viewers when you make it the whole point of emphasis - the sole idea behind the "performance system" was not to pay players "extra" for injuring players, but to encourage them to perform better on the field in general.

But having included that on the list of "performances" which would be rewarded is something that seems to separate this particular "bounty" system from its stereotype which almost all the teams seem to have in some form or another.

And that decision - going by what the reports are saying - was made by GW and, therefore, it would only be logical to target him as the main culprit behind this illegal activity.

no.

Aggressive hard hitting defensive players are most certainly rewarded.

Draft profiles don't list "big hitter" in the Negatives section.

There are a ton of "big hitters" in the Hall of Fame who, if they played today, would live in Goddell's office for lesser hits than what we are talking about.

you guys are getting "big hitters" and players trying to get a little extra money from injuring others confused.

Look, I'd be pissed if something like this happened to my team also. But I'd be pissed at the team, not Suh, not the Patriots.
