Joe Mays suspended one game and $50k for hit on Matt Schaub (my bad if already posted)

some commenter on PFT said the most logical thing I've read in awhile.
Paraphrasing he said "How can Joe Mays get fined and suspended for roughing the passer but Ryan Mundy only gets fined for putting DHB in the hospital?"
I seriously have to question how the NFL doles out punishment after another badly unequal punishment. Yes Schaub got essentially got head butted and and reportedly had a piece of his ear ripped off but DHB got put in the hospital by an illegal hit. How is May's situation any worse then Mundy's?
It's called Mr. Goodell protecting the QBs and cares nothing for other players health. Goodell is a joke, he isn't consistent.
and star players in general....... if Roy Williams broke some scrubs leg and not T.O. the horse collar rule would not have been put in.
hitting a QB below the knee wouldn't be a penalty if it was a scrub and not Tom Brady..........
