Cheap Shot Stealers Weather Burfict Storm

Did Bosa have the same DC as Shazier had? 1 guy not only got flagged for leading with the crown of his helmet by every official that had flags but he was also disqualified. Shazier drew zero flags and didn't Pitt get rewarded with the football in an outcome that separated the winner from the loser by 2 points?
It's not always about what you did as much as it's about who you play for. Just ask Carson Palmer who lost a knee to Pittsburgh during an 80 yard TD pass.

Different rules in college. College has the "targeting rule" that comes with disqualification but that doesn't exist in the NFL.

Seriously, though, Burfict's idiocy on the field shouldn't come as a surprise to anyone.
His last year at Arizona St. he had something like 10 personal fouls in 12 games. His out-of-control
on-field behavior was a major red flag for NFL scouts and he free fell in the the draft. It was
debated on this very board whether the Browns should take him or not----for: he's a mean, nasty
motherfucker on the field and the Browns haven't had anyone like that in a LONG time. Against: his
on-field nastiness comes with a price---he's seemingly incapable of controlling himself and will probably
end up costing whoever drafts him a game(s) at some point.

Surprisingly not true, Mark...
ARTICLE 8. INITIATING CONTACT WITH THE CROWN OF THE HELMET. It is a foul if a runner or tackler initiates forcible contact by delivering a blow with the top/crown of his helmet against an opponent when both players are clearly outside the tackle box (an area extending from tackle to tackle and from three yards beyond the line of scrimmage to the offensive team’s end line). Incidental contact by the helmet of a runner or tackler against an opponent shall not be a foul.
Note: The tackle box no longer exists once the ball leaves the tackle box.
Penalty: Loss of 15 yards. If the foul is by the defense, it is also an automatic first down. The player may be disqualified if the action is flagrant.
Until I was actually reading the rule a half hour ago I did not know DQ was an option. So the only real difference between Pros and College is the application and the replay review.

Didn't know that as well. I don't think there's been an NFL player DQ'd for such a hit. But it happens in college every single week.

Wasn't a dirty hit. Learn the game ass clown. Good, clean hit. Good challenge. Go Steelers.
So you "are" allowed to hit a receiver in the NFL with the very top of your helmet? I know they announcers were saying he had a turn or a "football move"...that's debateable. But I didn't think you were allowed to lower your helmet like that period anymore. The fact that he caught Bernard square on the chin kind of illustrates that Bernard had just come down with the ball.

That's what I was thinking too

I think we can all agree that was the dirtiest playoff game evr played by the two dirtiest teams in football... And Ghoolie is a bitch.

Is that why A Brown thinks he's in St Louise right now and Ben will be useless against Denvers D ? Bengals plus the Browns taking out your running back looks like a bunch of "sissies" have TOTALLY DEPLETED YOUR ROSTER !Never have I saw a team comprised of more fucking sissies than the bungles...and burfict as their leader.
So happy the Steelers were dropping them like flies. Their locker room probably looked like a MASH unit after the game...they weren't going anywhere even if they had won.

hehe, i know i love it. I see stinky is trying to act like Pgh didn't get their asses kicked. It's why i kind of like Cincy. Pgh and Blt have gotten used to bullying the rest of the North around the field. Unfortunately Cleveland restructures every time they start to build a physical team. Cincy has had more or less the same structure for 8 or so years and they can play one up with both Blt and Pgh and punch them in the mouth. I'm really starting to like Burfict. He's exactly the kind of jail nigga i've been wanting in Cleveland for years. Like shittsburg steeler fans wanna act like they've never had someone like that even though "that guy" is still on the field for them and teaching the next generation of OLB'ers for them. They're just salty there's someone else like that in the North who isn't going to take their shit.
Anyone wanna spool up a video of all of Harrisons dirty shots? If you do it'll be clear Burfict still has his work cut out for him to be as dirty as Harrison has been throughout his career.
-
Burfict is my new hero! I wanna see him in Brown and Orange! He hates the Stoolers so much he should be ours. Two questions:
1: how long will he be banned for?
2: do the Bungals have a record for straight post season losses?
-
Hey if Cincy wants to make Jackson the HC and let Burfict go....bring em to Cleveland. Absolutely 100%. I'll let Marvin build the same defense here that he built in Cincy and you all will love it when they beat up the little squeelers. Frankly, I'm not saying i'd be "happy" that the Bengals lost if I was a Bengals fan....but at the very least i'd have some smug self satisfaction that my team beat the fuck out of Pgh even in loss. That's all i give a fuck about anymore. I want a Browns team that beats the fuck out of people, especially the Steelers and Ravens, even when the lose. Any of you that wouldn't want Marvin Lewis in Cleveland are flat out Retarded. With Dalton in that game the Bengals win. If Pgh had to have played the game from teh beginning with Landry Jones, anybody thing they would have won? pffftttt

Hell yeah, Burfict is Cincy's Harrison.
-
Amen to that Brother! Burfict is exactly the type of player I want to see in Cleveland. I want teams to be scared to play us.
-
isn't awesome though to listen to pukes from Pgh whine about Burfict when they enjoyed watching Harrison do no less for years?
-
Amuses me and winds me up in equal measure. I just love seeing them get beat up by the Bungals and then get jealous its not us doing the killing! Then hearing them whine and bleat afterwards like the sissies they really are- tossers! I hate them.
-
The helmet to helmet hit by dirty shazier took at least three points off the board from Cincy because of the fumble. Burfict didn't even hit fagtonio brown with his helmet. That allowed the Stoolers into field goal position. That's a swing of 6 points in the steelroider's favor thanks to officiating.
-
Just asking..................
If the Steelers suck and the Bengals suck, is there a "need to improve to suck" category.
Small people need to denigrate others in order to make themselves feel better.
Sophomoric....................at best.
More like Junior High - 6th Grade

Can the Browns trade for Burfict?

I would. I'd give Cincy Dansby and Kirksey for him. Start Robertson and Burfict next year as 4-3 Lb'ers. That would be nasty.

And keep Mingo as the cover backer.

Real classy of Pittsburgh Offensive Coordinator pulling the hair of Bengals player on sidelines:
Lol...that was funny. I don't think he could have intentionally grabbed the dreds while holding that piece of paper though. The dreds had to have landed just right and Munchack took the opportunity and yanked. You can whine about that but its really no big deal. Had no effect on the game or its outcome.
Bullshit it is a big deal. There's no place for that from a coach. Then your other coach goes out onto the field to start shit. He should have been ejected. Really was a complete demonstration of the two most classless thug filled teams in the NFL. Both of these teams would have fit right into a Vince Mc'Mahoned football league. What is love to see as their fines is both coaches, Burflict and Shazier put into an octagon against real bad asses. Now there's a ticket is buy.Lol...that was funny.

I do find it ironic that one of the dirtiest franchises in sports is calling out another team for being dirty. On a different note we would all be acting the same way if the Browns had the success of the Steelers.
