    Looking at the review it appears Edwards came down on him on the restart. So yes if you look at it that way because when Edwards came down, the bump with Brad's car pushed Edwards in the wall ruining Edwards and Joeys day. lol

    Now,away from the jokes....Carl started it and watch NASCAR finish it. Edwards is to also be blamed the horrific wreck, which caused some injuries to fans in the stands. There will be a HUGE price to be paid by Edwards and his entire team/owner! Watch for more than a fine, point reduction and probation after this attack.

    Brad was not responsible at all for what happens on lap 40, Carl came down on Brad and Brad did all he could do. The wreck at Talladega was also Carl's fault.

    Maybe so, but if I were Brad I wouldn't cause Carl to wreck on purpose. What I would do is meet with Carl after the race and beat the every loving crap out of him. Carl Edwards is a jerk, I've seen him grab his own team mate Matt Kenseth away from a post race interview cause he was ticked at Matt for something. Carl is a big baby, can't stand the guy.

    No Brad K did nothing wrong. Carl Edwards is a whiner!

    Carl openly admitted he wanted to spin him out. So no, brad wasn't responsible for it. But Brad had it coming and he will continue to have it coming from other drivers with his rookie atitude and racing style. Brad has always had issues with other drivers because of his racing and he always will until he decides to mature up and stop causing so many uncalled for incidents on the track.

    He wasn't completely responsible no and he certainly didn't deserve to get wrecked. Could he have got out of the gas and kept from tapping Edwards with a car on his rear? Maybe, and maybe he tried like he said, but we're talking about 1000's of seconds here folks. Could Carl have stayed where he was and not get near Brad to begin with? Most definitely. But a driver is never wrong and when they screw up they have to blame someone else for their screw up. Not many of them have the balls to admit when they are wrong these days. The only one that I will say 100% that does have the balls to admit when he screws up and it doesn't happen often is Mark Martin. The rest of them whine when they think someone should pull over for them and let them go around. It is one of my biggest problems with these guys. They can't race unless someone lets them have the spot or gives them room. Carl Edwards needs to go back to the Blow Me state and wrecked people on the dirt. Thats where he belongs. It would've made a great AFLAC commercial though.(the big wreck)

    It's Atlanta Motor Speedway in the middle of turns 1 and 2. If Brad lifts suddenly, he could get run into from behind. As Ralph Earnhardt said, "Establish your territory."

    it looked like Carl came down on Brad i know that he said Brad needs to learn to give and take early but i think Brad had his position and Carl could have gave a little and kept that from happening. to bad Carl just could not wait for Bristol that stunt he pulled will cost him more than likely

    No. Absolutely not. The replay clearly shows that Brad kept his car right on the line and Edwards came down.

    Anyone who says otherwise must be blind.
