Sorry, but I dont give Burfict benefit of a doubt here, as he has too much of a dirty history as is. I hate to be in the minority of opinion of Bengal fans apparently, but I guess I am. Burfict is a great player, but is now a liability for this team imo.

I agree that people would scream bloody murder if that was somebody hitting Eifert like that. I still wouldn't be one of them. I don't see him stumbling into him as some have said he does, but you can't blame the guy for biting on a fake. He went as low as possible. The NFL doesn't want shots to the head. This is what they will get. He apologized immediately. Did Burfict ever do that on any of his other notorious hits? It doesn't look like there is a lot of force or malice to me on that hit. Easy for me to say... I'm not he one getting hit in he back of my legs by a guy weighing a deuce and a half.
