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.

If Vontaze deserves 3 games then Odell deserved at least 8

You know he will...  It's not matter of if it's matter of when.

[Mother Grabber]

that's a hefty penalty for a harmless love tap

Wrong thread.

What Obj did was way worse.  Both are dirty players.

It'll be reduced to one, the NFLPA lawyers are better at their jobs than the commissioner is at his.

Dude needs to just be gone from the NFL.

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..."
