Steelers Say Burfict Should Be Suspended For Hit

Steelers call for Vontaze Burfict to be suspended as NFL reviews his questionable hits

 

[YankeeRebel]

Well it matters not what the Steelers want. But as soon as I read Burfict and suspension I agreed.

I thought the game was the cleanest it's been for awhile. I didn't see no dirty play from either side.

If anything, Jessie Bates made contact and led with his helmet.

All of this post game bitching has got the NFL looking at plays they wouldn’t normally care about.

Burfict has a history

He still shouldn't get suspended for a run-of-the-mill personal foul. Was the play even flagged?

Personally, I'm more surprised when Burfict isn't accused of "questionable hits" that should get him suspended in a game...

Throwing elbows to the head is run of the mill? Just curious

Nope.

It's just the Steelers being the Steelers.

But I'm not going down this rabbit hole again. They won. We lost. Just let it be.

When porter was in the field? He shouldn’t of been but that all started and ended with burfict and u know it. Also how was Shazier targeting.

In the NFL? Really? Of course it is, especially for a player coming up to hit a pile to stop forward progress. It's not a clean play, but it's common. Just as common as pick plays.

Oh yeah, that pick play that wasn't called. Or was it really?

But I never had a thought about it or wasn't bothered by it because I already know the NFL will protect the Steelers and kick the Bengals off a cliff. It's engulfed into my brain and I'm num to it. I don't really care.

The pick was borderline, since the contact was initiated within a yard of the line of scrimmage. Not sure what the rule is for continuation further downfield.

All I know is if Burfict is suspended for this, I'm checked out. I can spend my Sunday's doing something productive.

He could have easily not done it.

But he did. And he threw it intentionally. Make him sit again.

Mark Messier would have been proud of that elbow back in the day.

No but it fucking should have been. He was head hunting as usual.
