    The fumes got it for me as well. I have known violent drunks my entire life, and this is even beyond them. Wonder if it was possible carbon monoxide poisoning.

    When the brain starts to get deprived of oxygen, all bets are off.

    Actually, the whole newlywed thing had crossed my mind as well. I just know that I would handle issues like this MUCH differently now (21 years for me) than I would have back when I was first married.

    I just think that we should wait for the rest of the story to come out (and it will IMO) before turning him into some sort of psychotic here...that is my point.

    Rob went crazy... I could see him being very upset about not being in the league anymore. He probably didn't handle his money very well. He was getting more and more greedy at the end of his contract.

    Succop killed him. Yup. That's what happened.

    I agree with that. We're all just speculating because this whole thing is so bizarre and seemingly out of nowhere.

    Very odd and creepy if those reports from the college students and the husband and wife who were ran off the road as well, are true.

    Seeing the wedding photos of Rob and Rachel and seeing Terry Bradshaw looking like he was giving a speech, makes this even the more saddening. They looked so happy and that tux Bironas was wearing was Money! To think that was only in June is crazy!

    I wish we knew more about Rob in Detroit, trying out for the team - did anyone notice anything different about his demenor when he was there?

    Depression? Drugs? Hate speculating, guess we gotta wait 3-4 weeks for the results and all that ...

    Unbeliveable...

    A football player, married to a beautiful blond country girl, father in law is Terry Bradshaw - not everything buys happiness I guess and Im sure they want answers more than any of us.

    The other witness said there were no skid marks, so he might have passed out at that point. Can they detect carbon monoxide in an autopsy? Denali sales will crash hard if true. No pun intended.

    Very bizarre and it seems to get more bizarre every hour. From the outside, it seemed like Rob had a great life, a new wife, lots of money in the bank, the possibility of signing on with another NFL team, ect...ect... he never had previous reports of anger or road rage, but just the opposite. It's odd that his wife contacts 911 after he "just left" the house after a couple of hours. Makes you wonder about her claim that there wasn't an argument. Bottom line is it's a very tragic situation. A young man, father and husband lost his life and probably over not being able to control his emotions (for whatever reason). Life is short, live every day to it's fullest!

    That was the strangest 9/11 call I have ever heard. She didn't indicate any type of emergency what so ever, other than her husband "just left". There is obviously something she is either not telling, or maybe she has told the police and they just havent made it public yet. But, no one calls 9/11 simply because their husband left the house.

    I actually called 911 once because I got stuck in a snowdrift (did not know the regular number).

    Really, I think that you all are trying to read too much into her call.

    Dude, come on. There are several reported road rage instances and he ended up dying in a car wreck. She called 911 for a reason and it wasnt because he just left the house, it was because obviously something was wrong. Being stuck in a snow drift is quite a bit different than your husband willingly leaving his house in his own vehicle, unless there was something going on with regards to his leaving. The story will obviously come out at some point, but it is clear there is something more than "he just left the house".
