No one cares about his hard, legal hits. Now the Bengal fans here have a mental and emotional breakdown every time a Steeler makes a hard hit even when it's legal. That's what separates bengal fan whining from say Panthers fans being mad at Burfict for getting fined for twisting ankles after the play.
Bengals fans have long complained about the dirty hits from Pittsburgh players and the only argument Steelers fans have been able to muster is "Quit Crying". Ok.. that's fine. But along comes Burfict who, in my opinion, plays like a Steeler, and the entire fanbase goes crazy over him. Now, I know you have to temper yourself since you are posting on a Bengals site and need to make sure you don't leave yourself open to obvious shots, but go ahead and meander over to ANY Steelers site and see how frothy they get over anything Burfict related. I watched them go frame by frame and try to prove his hit on Bell was dirty.
