To me it is crap.  There is no way that is worse than what Beckham did.  It was in the middle of a paly and he led with the shoulder, Brown's just head dropped in just the wrong spot.  Yes he was a defenseless player and the penalty was well deserved, but he was neither going for the head not leading with it.

Leading with the shoulder across the middle during the game I guess is worse than running fifteen yards and launching yourself head first into the side of another person's head.

The single event was not as bad as OBJ's.  However, the additional games are because he is a repeat and habitual offender.

Completely agree.  Burfict has been a habitual scumbag.  Obj  is not on his level but i did believe obj should have gotten 2 games off for his hit.

To be fair, he is a very talented player (like Odell), but his shenanigans just cost his team a season (pacman is a dumbass too!). Every season, he is fined multiple times for head hunting. As far as I know, Odell does not have a history of this. There really should be progressive discepline for repeat defenders, including life time bans (he would be getting close IMO). I think both discilinary actions were fair, anr Burfict should be on kept on a short leash by the league.

I understand the argument, just disagree with it.  I feel Burfict's should be less or Beckham's should be more.  

I also feel the fact that Burfict was a defensive player that hit an offensive star, probably the best at his position while Beckham was a hyped up offensive darling of the league hitting a defensive player most in the country knew little to nothing about coming into the season played just as big a role in the whole thing, not that the league would ever admit it.

Apparently when burfict went over to Antonio brown, it wasn't to apologize..  He tapped him on the shoulder and told him "I put you to sleep, mother fuger" 

Brown responded, "good luck with the rest of your playoff games..."

      Predictions from Charlotte observer sports writers

      By raleigh-panther · Posted

      Fowler: Bucs 23, Panthers 16. Baker Mayfield only won a single game when he was an unimpressive Carolina starter, but somehow he’s 5-0 when playing AGAINST the Panthers. For the Panthers to pull off this upset, they’ll need to score at least in the mid-20s. With Tampa Bay relatively healthy following a mini-bye (and Mike Evans’ return is huge), it feels like this will be too tough a task. Kaye: Bucs 24, Panthers 20. The win-loss-win-loss streak comes to an end. It’s hard to trust the play-calling following the loss to the New Orleans Saints. The Panthers know what’s on the line, but they also knew last week, too. It’ll be close; I just have trouble trusting a positive outcome after a defeating one on the road. Zietlow: Panthers 38, Bucs 35. This prediction goes against conventional wisdom, but then again, conventional wisdom doesn’t seem to apply to these Panthers. This group, after all, has yet to lose back-to-back contests since Weeks 1 and 2. I think they win this one to make Week 18 interesting — and yes, that’s even with motivated Baker Mayfield and future Hall of Famer Mike Evans in good form. Why not?

      Sam developed into a different player after he mostly sat for a year and learned a ton by being in that QB room under Shannahan in San Francisco.  Then he went to the Vikings who have a poo load of talent and another genius level offensive mind at HC in Kevin O Connel. I think they genuinely built up his confidence in a way he never did in New York or Charlotte.  He would not have been the same player if he stayed here IMO. Especially if he had been involved in that disaster season with Frank Reich in 2023, that might have cooked his confidence for good.  I guess you could argue we wouldn't have been that bad if we also kept cmc and dj i guess.

      Willis was impressive last night given the circumstances. GB and SF seem to just have it figured out as far as QB goes.   It's frustrating, but I enjoy seeing our old players find success elsewhere.
