|High School Harry| Posted January 11, 2016 Report Share Posted January 11, 2016 Burfict gave Ben the business on shoulder-injuring sack Posted by Mike Florio on January 10, 2016, 2:13 PM EST APAs if Bengals linebacker Vontaze Burfictdidn’t have enough stuff to worry about after last night’s game against the Stealers, here’s another. Video has emerged online of Burfict deftly driving his knee into the right shoulder of Stealers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger, after Burfict sacked him onto it. Burfict’s illegal hit on receiver Antonio Brownalready will be reviewed by the league office, and given Burfict’s history he could be suspended to start the 2016 season. Regardless of whether he’s specifically disciplined for giving Ben the business after Ben was already on the ground, Burfict’s behavior won’t win him any brownie points at Park Avenue.

|High School Harry| Posted January 11, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 11, 2016 Yeah, the infamous PFT (hisssss) but the implanted Vine of Burfict kneeing Ben's shoulder and putting him out of the game for awhile is interesting. Can anyone post just that?Too bad Bufrict didn't knee Porter in the jewels for the trifecta with Brown. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hooky Posted January 11, 2016 Report Share Posted January 11, 2016 I'm not going to be too surprised over whatever punishment comes down on Burfict, but the thing that really bugs me is that he is villianized while after all of the shitty stuff the stealers did, they come out of it looking like choir boys.What if Burfict had that same "clean" hit that Shazier put on Gio? Stealer fans, including the media, would have lost their fucking minds and there would"ve been a flag. There is no doubt in my mind. I read all kind of excuses on twitter. One guy said that Shazier was trying to go low. Then why did he go high? He was in a position to hit him anywhere he wanted and he chose the helmet. Burfict would've been crucified. Honestly tell me that he wouldn't and I will never mention this again.On the subject of double standards, what if Matt Burke would've walked on the field and got in some stealer faces cussing them out when Gio was down? Flag? Would the TV booth say that he has no business being out there? Would the stealer players say " Hey, Matt. Great to see you. How's the wife and kids?"?Porter is getting fined, but Fuckface and most of the analysts are more or less just joking that the fine was worth winning the game and not speculating that he should've been flagged.Fuckface reported that Burdock tried to take Brown's head off, but no mention of what Shazier's intentions were though he obviously launched into Gio's face.But to be clear, the Bengals fucked up the final seconds of that game. They enabled shit to happen, but no way the stealers and the refs should get a pass, but they will. Well, already have.And that's what will sink in my craw until next season. I will be pissed at Hill since he is responsible for it even coming down to the refs fucking us, but that doesn't excuse the refs not handling it better.I will try to not even think about this game, but every time analysts will mention the bengals, it will be negative and fire me up. So not only does the playoff drought continue, but we're the assholes of the league, not to mention, idiots. The turds get more respect than us. The chiefs drought was almost as long as ours and you never heard mention of it. Apparently they didn't want to pick on them. It is acceptable to bully the bengals and now it is going to get even worse, if you can imagine.I apologize for this post being all over the place. I have to vent. This is probably my last post until FA or longer. I am going to somehow try to avoid NFL talk. I want to watch the games, but that's it. The analysyts have nothing to say of value. I will just watch the games and read updates of transactions and injuries on my phone. If you got this far, thanks for reading my ramblings.

BengalsOwn Posted January 11, 2016 Report Share Posted January 11, 2016 adam schefter is on a witch hunt. He tweeted shocking video of burfict hitting a ravens player who wasnt paying attention.when he tweeted it espn was running adrian peterson redemption stories. Burfict is a hard hitting linebacker who is villified and peterson is a child abuser... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saphead Posted January 11, 2016 Report Share Posted January 11, 2016 Of course what this grainy video doesn't show is Burfict was right in the middle of wrestling the ball away from Ben, which he did. It looks like Burfict is tucking his knees in to gain leverage. But hey, he's a lighting rod so lets go after him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bengals7833 Posted January 11, 2016 Report Share Posted January 11, 2016 It's all complete bullshit. I'm pretty sure "kneeing" bens shoulder pads didn't hurt him. If the game wasn't devastating enough now we get to here this shit all offseason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Again, from my novel post, what if that Shazier hit on Gio was a Burfict hit on that french dude? Tell me there wouldn't be a flag and I will never bring it up again.

The Chiefs didnt get mentioned because they havent gone to 4(now 5) straight playoffs and lose them in a row. That's why they dont get the same ribbing.

He flopped. It would've been interesting to see if he would've gone back in the game if the hit happened earlier. Probably.I guarantee that if you're not a bengal player, nine times out of ten, if you get hit and stay on the ground for a few seconds, you will get a flag. See the Williams hit.

Hooky Posted January 11, 2016 Report Share Posted January 11, 2016 A stealer tried to take out a punter? They seem to have a penchant for it. Lest we not forget that Antonio Brown kicked their punter in the face.http://www.chatsports.com/cleveland-browns/a/source/joey-porter-situation-no-surprise-to-browns-12111437 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
