I have this same worry. Cinci (burfict) has taken it to another level. Has it ever happened before that a single player has injured four stars (bell, bell again, ben, antonio) on another team? Add to that the potential for even worse, with cinci players wandering onto the field whenever they want and fans throwing stuff.
I think rooney should say, we will not play bengals until burfict and marvin lewis are gone. We will forfeit if necessary. We have a better chance of a successful season with two losses and healthy ben, bell, brown than with one loss (assume under normal circumstances we would split) and injuries.
I'm serious.

The way this Cinci rivalry has developed, it is now on par, from a violence and pain perspective, with the Ravens. Can we afford to have 4 of these types of games a year? The Ravens games always felt that no matter if you won you lost. It always felt for both teams that they were out of gas for the following week's game or missing key players due to injuries, especially if it is a Thursday game.
Now we add 2 more to the mix, at least for next year, and it spells a pretty significant hurdle.
Just proves that New England has 2 extra SB titles because of the shitty division they are in, and between Baltimore and Pitt, we are probably both short 1 or 2 championships due to this division's violence and competition level. Of course I am biased and admittedly only periodically watch other games in their entirety. But i do not hear Phil Simms or the talking heads talking about other games like they do the Ravens/Pitt games, and now they will surely be saying the same things next year as they move these into prime-time if I were to guess.
We can worry about that next year, but maybe they should consider a divisional realignment at this point.
