Bengals fans on Burflict twists

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.

      Monroe Freeling’s lovely GF

      With the contract money an OT first rounder makes you can ALWAYS get a new girlfriend.  And probably an upgrade at that.  You only got 2 parents.

      Brother. You are wholly confusing comparing situations and applying actual standards like most other franchises do like simply getting into a playoff series and winning at least 1 or 2 series games with praising. Nobody is praising the Hawks. Nobody is praising the Magic. Nobody here likes those teams. But reality is reality. The Hawks like other franchises have traded players fired coaches etc but they can still win a couple playoff games. How is that not the bare floor for you or anyone else? What are we doing here if it isn't? We've seen eye to eye on many things over the years. But you are in the camp on the Hornets where you are emotionally attached to LaMelo where you feel the need to carry his water like he's got that juice. That's cool that you feel that way. It's your prerogative. But I differ from that viewpoint entirely. If he had that juice we would not have gotten wiped off the court in 2 play in games with 2 different coaching staffs and rosters. if people don't like hearing that well I'm sorry but how the hell is this team ever going to get better and ultimately go anywhere in the postseason if we just blindly pat them on the back for getting their asses whooped before they actually even get into the real playoffs? There seem to be some Bryce Young level standards being applied here. That's wild to me. But to each his own.

      Jeremy Fowler: Panthers draft day intel

      Proctor/Freeling were always the belles of the ball where we were picking. What those two *could* become at OT was far greater than what others could be at their respective positions and I’m glad our FO could see that.
