Cant believe this hasnt been brought up yet. Apparently Burfict was seen flipping off the fans after the game yesterday. I read it on PFT. Any confirmation of this?

We could have won 3.5 games with or without Burfict and Pacman. The Bengals should have cleaned house after the playoff meltdown.

If you look at his incidents individually...they aren't a big deal. Cumulatively they are...and they go back to college for him.

Head shot to AB(2015), Max Williams hit(2015), whatever happened in Patriots game(2016), ankle twists(2014)... All if these occurred after Mike Zimmer left. I know he did the little bag tag in 2013, but it seems Burfict was far more under control his first two seasons.
5 playoff losses in a row...the last by an epic meltdown...and they'll call that 'passion'.
Research Burfict's college career too. He did the same things then as he's doing now.
Yep...just questionable hits going the wrong way and the system out to get him I suppose.

That's just not the time to do it.
26+ years without a playoff win.
