			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>By now, you have heard that Lions defensive tackle Ndamukong Suh was ejected Thursday for stepping on Packers offensive lineman Evan Dietrich-Smith (<a href="http://www.nfl.com/videos/auto/09000d5d8246e035/Suh-ejected" target="_blank">video</a>). Of course, Suh says he shouldn&#8217;t have been tossed, because his foot was tangled with Dietrich-Smith (although the video shows otherwise). As Fox Sports analyst Troy Aikman aptly put it, &#8220;That&#8217;s an excellent block on [Dietrich-Smith's] part, and Ndamukong Suh doesn&#8217;t like it.&#8221; It was referee Terry McAuley&#8217;s second ejection in the game, with Packers cornerback Pat Lee being tossed before halftime for landing a punch (<a href="http://www.nfl.com/videos/green-bay-packers/09000d5d8246ecaf/Lee-disqualified-from-game" target="_blank">video</a>).</p>
<p>The Suh ejection was for the kicking Dietrich-Smith. The league will review the entire video which shows Suh slamming Dietrich-Smith&#8217;s head to the turf a few times.</p>
<p>The NFL is mulling over a 1- or 2-game suspension for Suh, according to Fox Sports&#8217; Jay Glazer. However, it would be an odd statement of priority if Suh is suspended for two games.</p>
<p>There were two multiple-game suspensions for an on-field incident in NFL history. Both incidents were far more serious than Suh&#8217;s conduct, so the precedent would be Suh has a one-game suspension on the way:</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>1986. </strong>Packers defensive lineman Charles Martin hit Bears quarterback Jim McMahon well after a pass,  separating McMahon&#8217;s shoulder. Referee Jerry Markbreit ejected Martin, which was rare at the time for a non-fighting incident. Martin was suspended two games by commissioner Pete Rozelle.<object width="420" height="315"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/lTLlaMY_9PM?version=3&amp;hl=en_US&amp;rel=0"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/lTLlaMY_9PM?version=3&amp;hl=en_US&amp;rel=0" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="420" height="315" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true"></embed></object></li>
<li><strong>2006.</strong> Titans defensive lineman Albert Haynesworth stomped on Cowboys offensive lineman Andre Gurode’s face. Referee Jerome Boger assessed a rare double personal foul and ejected Haynesworth. Gurode needed 30 stitches to close the wound caused by Haynesworth&#8217;s cleats.<object width="560" height="315"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/B_S_X6QIlBs?version=3&amp;hl=en_US&amp;rel=0"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/B_S_X6QIlBs?version=3&amp;hl=en_US&amp;rel=0" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="560" height="315" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true"></embed></object></li>
</ul>
<p>The last suspension for an on-field incident was Dante Wesley&#8217;s flagrant hit in 2009 which resulted in a one-game suspension (<a title="NFL quickly suspends Panthers’ Wesley 1 game for flagrant hit on punt returner" href="http://www.footballzebras.com/2009/10/19/513" target="_blank"><em>Zebra Blog</em> coverage</a>).<br />
