That gets a flag and rightfully so.
I may be wrong on this, but I do think that there are some other requirements that are important in the defenseless receiver rule.
One the defender must be launching or leading with his helmet. Which Burfict didn't do.
I will have to check though and even so if that is the rule, I couldn't fault the refs for throwing the flag.
