Pulling for the Bengals until......

18 Seconds with no timeouts.  Maybe they hit a quick pass near the sidelines, or maybe they can get up to the line of scrimmage and spike it.  But it would have been dicey. 

The Bengal players were simply a reflection of the Brown's and the entire Bengal management in crunch time. Since they were, we'll never know what a couple quick outs might have netted the Steelers.

god that gets uglier every time i watch it.

It was just as ugly the first time too.

But some 'old school' football players on this forum seem to think concussions are just character building and intentional shots to the head are just all in good fun.

if it weren't for burfict's history i could see this being accidental. for instance if it was luke keuchly it would've been a freak accident perhaps actually inspired by god for something bad antonio did that he deserved to pay for

I was about to say the same thing.  The announcers all but came out and said he was the cause of couple of Steeler injuries earlier in the game.

I'm very old school, and I think that hit was dirty and Vontaze Burfict is an idiot.

He was undrafted. 

Pac Man Jones was traded for...Burfict had major red flags and a worse 40 time. Point is...the roster has cornerstones that are unstable and trash. 

It would be like building the team around Greg Hardy.

They have drafted-coddled and seek problem children on the regular.

Yea, the sad part is even at full speed you can see he has plenty of time to make the rational choice not to take the extra 2 steps and hit Brown (a penalty in all situations btw).

Instead stays on his route and lowers his shoulder for a blow to the head.  How is this hit being defended by anyone as legal?

no, but i wouldn't measure them as equally offensive. 

The concept is the same, though. A coach, who honestly had no right to be on the field (brown is a WR, Porter is the LB coach), got into the middle of a scrum in a rivalry game that he used to play in, grabbed a player. That's a dick move.

    • No, the casual fan gets sucked into THIS^^^ kind of thinking, and it's so woefully incorrect that it's almost sad. The first is what I've said numerous times, NOTHING about non guaranteed contracts save the billionaire owners a single penny, because they still have to spend their cap floor, and the only reason teams ever don't spend the full limit, is to then roll it over into the next season to be able to spend more that year. But in the end, owners pay the same amount of money no matter what. The reverse is also the same, that the players in totality make the same amount of money as well, because in your example of Clowney not getting that money this year, it will go to another player, as the cap needs to be spent. And you say how we just cut Clowney after we gave him the 2 year contract, but everyone including Clowney's agent and himself, knew when it was signed, that it was more likely to be a 1 year contract than a 2 with how it was structured.  The 2nd year was just to be able to spread out the cap hit and he was always most likely going to end up getting traded or cut. It's why agents and players don't care about the total money in a contract, it's always and only been about the guaranteed money, as the years and overall value are meaningless, always have been, always will be.
    • Agents will have their 1st round picks hold out until the pay structure of their contract is to their liking, not how much money they'll get or even how much is guaranteed, just the when/how they will get the money over the course of the contract. If they're willing to recommend those players hold our, do you really think they won't do it for 2nd rounders to guarantee them an extra 10% of their entire rookie contract?
