Mitchell needs to acknowledge nothing. Hes a hard nosed football player. Burthdefect is just a thug.

Are you really too much of a blind homer to admit that if Burfict makes the same hit as Shazier he gets 15?

P.S. once again, a pro player a guy who forgot more about football then you'll ever know said Shazier's hit was worse.....so please argue this more.

After that statement, your credibility--gone. 

Burfict will be different this year.  Mitchell will not.  The truth is the truth.  It needs not your acknowledgement.

Mitchell has 2 career fines for hits? It's bound that a safety is going to make a bang-bang play on a receiver over the middle and get hit with some flags and fines. That's all you got to trot out as evidence and yet you cry "borderline criminal" and "out to maim"? MC Cry in the building; here to tear things up!!!!!

Bengal fans readily admit Burfict needs to change and so, in fact, does he.  Steeler fans have no such ability.

The fact that he has two fines is just another crock and hardly qualifies as evidence of his lack of guilt in this regard.

(02-24-2016, 06:04 PM)McC Wrote: He'll be fine. He didn't let all that other stuff or the surgery stop him. If he says he'll do it, he'll do it. You guys can look forward to another eight years of him twice a year.

And I'm still not sure why Steeler fans are supposed to be upset about playing against Burfict. Free 15 yards, free first downs and free wins sounds great to me.

(02-24-2016, 08:38 PM)McC Wrote: He had no concussions this past year.  And all the other over the line stuff will be gone this year.  We'll revisit this in a year and you'll see how right I was and you'll still refuse to eat your crow.  lol.  Seriously, though.  

He loves the game too much to piss it away.  And that awful feeling he still has from the end of that game is why he'll never be that guy again.

The league told him we don't want you.  You can't play in this league.  Oops.

People said you can't come back and be the same from that knee.  Oops.

He's gonna concuss his way out of the league.  Didn't happen.

Do you not see the pattern?  He will never cost his team a game again.
