most call him a dirty player

 

 

Did anyone else notice Burfict trying to twist Newtons ankle after that TD? Maybe thats why the refs target Burfict so much. Is he really a dirty player under the pile?

----------

It was a super dirty play and he deserves a fine for it. No room for trying to intentionally hurt someone

--------------

Classless. He did it to Olsen too, after Olsen scored on him. There's no place for it. He deserves a large fine.

------------

Mentioned this in my recap... SIMPLY NO PLACE FOR THIS ON THIS TEAM. PLAY THE RIGHT WAY...He tried it on Olsen too... Zimmer would have kicked his tail for this...

Marvin has got to get control of this young man. His deamons from Arizona St are rising..

SIMPLY UNCALLED FOR..

 

-----------------

 

 

Here are some more good videos on it. Clearly dirty. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

and of course those who defend him....

 

 

Not sure I see what the fuss is about here. They were tackled. Burfict had leg during the tackle. Even looking at the videos, he's underneath Cam on His TD. Cam tries to kick him. I think this is mountains out of molehills. 

Fines? For what? A play that wasn't even flagged?

 

 

 

----------------------------

 

 

I don't endorse being dirty. But what Burfict displayed is a common tackling style against players who are larger than you. You wrap them up low and twist.

 

 

-----------------------------

 

 

The way the refs where handing out flags yesterday. It must not have been that bad, and they focus on Burfict.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

and this made me lol

I was browsing some of their boards earlier.  The easiest way to look at it is if your franchise QB, and Pro Bowl caliber tight end had the same thing happen to them, you would be outraged.  If Dalton was coming off of an ankle surgery, and a player with an already bad reputation targeted that ankle after a play, you wouldn't say "It's football, I like when guys play with intensity", like some of their fans have argued. 

 

I was glad to see the majority of the posts I read agreed that he needed to be penalized.

Lol, is their coach serious?

 

 

When asked about Burfict's antics on Sunday, Bengals coach Marvin Lewis laughed it off and likened the accusations to professional wrestling.

"No, I don't have any comment on it," Lewis said laughing. "Ankle wrenching? That sounds like the WWF."

If that's a confirmed comment, then I have lost any and all respect for Lewis. If one of my team members was alleged to have been trying to physically injure someone, I would never laugh it off and make a stupid, flippant comment like that.

 

 

That's just backing up the classless attitude displayed yesterday. What a jackass.

      So the last guy who had the job got hired by his former team directly into a role he has no direct experience in?

      Hard to pass up millions for a couple of days work per week for a coaching gig in the NFL that is 60-80 hours each week during the season and a more relaxed 50 hours a week during the off season. Yeah, I'd love to see him as our DC but hard to see him giving up the cushy job there if he gets it. And he's going to be a great commentator for the network.

      Really, I think that is where negotiations come in. If you've got a QB getting you to 10 wins but statistically he's not a great performer, then you say look you can take $22 million or you can try it on the market. Because let's face it, out there, any leadership skills that we're seeing aren't going to be on the table, it's just going to be performance and that lands him in the QB2 market, which is much, much less lucrative (although any of us would love that money).  No one is saying that Bryce will be a $50 million QB, barring something short of a miraculous jump. I'm just saying that if we are winning somehow with him at the helm, then it would be fuging stupid to dive back into the rookie pool all over again. Let's say we do hit the 10 win mark, heck, let's call it 11 and a second round in the playoffs. I think we can all say that would be a really uplifting result and one that should be doable if we have good play. What do we do then? Here's what I would offer if I were Morgan and Tepper. $25 million a year for 3 years, each year with up to $10 million in incentives for touchdowns, wins, playoff depth, being under 10 interceptions, completing a full season, passing yardage milestones, taking less than 15 sacks. Look, Bryce isn't a Ferrari, he isn't a Corvette, or a mid-level BMW. He's probably a new Toyota Sienna that will definitely get you somewhere and bring the whole team along with it, no fuss but not a lot of pizazz.  And really, it's about the destination, not about what drove you there.
