On the topic of Jones and Iloka. I frankly don't care. Jones got chopped to the neck and saw red. These people complaining about Jones being a disgrace obviously have never been in his shoes and in this situation before. You're loaded with adrenaline playing every single down in a violent fast paced sport and you get chopped to the neck? what did you expect him to do ? It doesn't matter what you expect him to do because you're not the moral authority on all things.
George Iloka's foul was a mistake, but only because of his body position. If he does that a foot away and not on him it probably doesn't get called. Even if it does I can't fault the dude for living in the moment. Its what makes these players great.
If anything the travesty of this game was the call on Kirkpatrick. Lets be clear i dont care just because it was a Bengals game, but this is a pure bullshit call that has a trickle down effect in this league. Even that waste of space Chris Simms said afterwards " The League is removing this from the game " . I am sorry, but when has shit talking not been allowed on a football field ? This is part of the mental warfare of football that makes the game great.
And I would argue that the great pussyfing of the game will only lead to more injuries. Leave the political correctness to things that don't involve bone crushing hits.
I'm sure Hockey and Rugby players are all having a laugh at the state of the NFL right now.
