Burfict Facing possible Suspension (No Satire)

It was a reaction after being shoved down unnecessarily. It was stupid but it wasn't really dangerous since it was more of a push with his foot than a forceful kick.

Good example. When you're a big bad bully and you can't bully like you want to, you resort to childish, unacceptable reactions. 

It's ingrained so much that it probably can't be changed.

This is the place where the team should suspend him.

He's already been fined over a million dollars this year. It won't be long and he won't be able to afford to play anymore....

Burfict is a shining example of how Marvin does not have control of this team. They are sloppy, undisciplined, and apparently relaxed enough to yuk it up in the losing locker room - after a loss that basically ended their season.

Marvin has done a lot of good over the years for this team, and the city of Cincinnati. This franchise was barely a real NFL team when he got here. Seriously. Every aspect of the operation was a mess, and the league regarded the Bengals as so bad, they were diluting the NFL product, by basically being an automatic W, week in and week out. Even the facilities were run down to the point where tons of college programs had better weight rooms, locker rooms, etc.. Part of the changes that happened around then were due to pressure from the league on Mike Brown, but Marvin helped lead those changes, and turn the team around on the field. I don't think he deserves hate or disrespect. He had a good run here, but overstayed his welcome.

I think he should have been canned after the debacle playoff game against the Steelers. That was the no brainer time to do it, and probably a couple years beyond when he really should have been let go.

It is strange that Burflict pointed at the guy. The one Bengals player blocks the view. I'm wondering if the Steeler grabbed ... something .... and Burflict just reacted. It's just a bit odd that Burflict would point like that. He knows he's under a microscope and I, for one, would not put it past the Steelers to do something to instigate that stuff.

Screw this, I'm with you Vontaze. Any other game, I would be pissed, but we owe Shitsburgh numerous injured players. I will not criticize the only guy on the team with the sac to go after them like they go after us.
