"In the midst of this incredible conversation about domestic violence, in the worst scandal in the history of professional sports, the NFL doesn't get it right," said USA Today sports columnist Christine Brennan. Monday, the NFL suspended Rice indefinitely after TMZ Sports released elevator video showing him knocking out his now-wife, Janay Rice. On Saturday, Peterson turned himself in Montgomery County, facing a child abuse charge. On Sunday, the Panthers benched Hardy, who was convicted of assaulting an ex-girlfriend.

"It makes you lose interest in the players you had confidence in," said Texans fan Imy Dixson. Texans fans are reacting with mixed emotions about the growing scandal. "I think the way they should handle it is zero tolerance for that because there's thousands of people that would love to be in their position," said Texans fan Ricardo Rodriguez. Three players across three teams - the Panthers' Greg Hardy, the Vikings' Adrian Peterson, and former Ravens' player Ray Rice - all tied together by accusations of domestic violence. "Whenever you're in the spotlight, you're making all sorts of money, and a lot of other people look up to you, there's a certain example you gotta set," said Texans fan Arnaldo Perez. It's not what's happening on the field, but behind closed doors and most infamously, captured on camera. HOUSTON (KTRK) - While many fans focused on a win like the Texans' today, inescapable for teams across the nation is the turmoil rocking the National Football League.
