He will never learn - McC - 11-12-2017
It took a long time, I guess. Probably too long, but I have finally realized Vontaze Burfict will never change. Enough is enough. Keeps looking more and more like he is a lost cause.
I always thought his love of the game would be the thing that would lead him to adapt. But it's just not in his DNA. He's in the wrong century.
Anyway, he's bound to be looking at another suspension, right?

I'm with you. Today put me over the edge with him. Its obviously never going to click with him, its just not working.

Could have told you that a couple years ago but welcome aboard! You can have good football IQ but still just be a dumb person who can't make smart decisions. Jones and Burfict have been an embarrassment to this team and city for years. Jones has well work out his usefulness and Burfict is on his way.

And honestly, he doesn't even seem to be playing that well either.

Yeah, I probably knew it a couple years ago but didn't want it to be true because he made such a difference on the field.

He had no impact on the game today that I saw before he got tossed and the D played just as well or better once he was gone. Its a small sample size but the move to the middle has seemed to diminish his impact
I'm no defensive expert but I agree that his game seems to have suffered lately.

Im ready to move on from him
RE: He will never learn - treee - 11-12-2017
If we do move on I'd rather he go to the NFC.
RE: He will never learn - Edge - 11-12-2017
Still boggles my mind why the contract extension was made, given his constant disregard to his conduct. I seriously felt he needed to be let go. Now more than ever. Brown and Lewis' belief in reclamation projects had always been a thorn in the teams side.
RE: He will never learn - Brimey - 11-12-2017
He plays such a physical game, I can't help but wonder if he's shot. He has not played overly well. He has had a lot of injuries, concussions. Did the team literally invest in a brain damaged player who CAN'T control him self?

Agree.

Trade him to Minnesota. Mike Zimmer will civilize him.
RE: He will never learn - bengalfan74 - 11-12-2017
I wanted very badly for Burfict to clean up his act and become a true leader on this defense. We badly need a hard nosed with high character guy. But I'm afraid there's no hope.
After going back and watching the personal foul late hit out of bounds play several times, I'm not at all convinced that wasn't just a decent act by Burfict ? It looks a lot like he intended to hit him out of bounds or not and act like he tried to pull up.
RE: He will never learn - cincyfan429 - 11-12-2017
He hurts the team more than he helps the team he is a stupid player, and proof that Lewis has no control over this team at all. Send him and Marvin packing asap.

The league will probably be the ones who send him packing. And they must love how easy he keeps making it on them. It's like he keeps speeding by cops every day and them wondering why he lost his license. He's downright daring them to ban him.
RE: He will never learn - michaelsean - 11-12-2017
He barely touched the guy out of bounds and the call for contacting the ref was nonsense especially when we saw a titan wrap his arms around one. Plenty of reason to bail on Burfict if you want but don’t base it on today.

They were tacky tack but beg the question of why?
He tried to make the out of bounds hit look unintentional but he hit him on purpose just to knock him down. Its piddly, but why do it to begin with? and the ref thing. Again tacky tack, but when a ref puts his arm in front of you to keep you separated from other players you can't just throw it off. Just dumb stuff from him especially knowing they're targeting him.

It was definitely acting. He took another four steps after the ball carrier was out of bounds before he made contact. They were outside of the white boundary marker.
He pulled the same act when he made contact with the official then acted like he was a victim.
He wouldn't do it if Marvin didn't tolerate his BS.

Why? Are you afraid he might hand a playoff win to us?

Like i said in the game day thread. Toeing the line like that is his crack. He just can't stay away from the thrill of seeing how far he can go. The guy is an addict to that shit and he'll never change.
