Bittersweet for me. It was time, but he was one of my absolute favorite players for a few years there. Loved watching him play when he was on his game there weren’t many better. Also, his hatred of the Steelers was always endearing to me. I wish him well whatever he does next.

Where are you seeing this? I can’t find anything.

I agree. The game changed during the time he was here. If he was Ray Lewis' age he would have been a superstar.

Is Walton next?

If true, I feel the same way. Last season kind of showed me the writing on the wall.

Wow, as much as I like Burfict, I believe it was a good decision. Not only because he has seemed to have lost a step but for his own health.

since he knew the defense so well we are cutting him to hire him as LB Coach/DC


Loved Burfict...  He brought us the closes we have been in a long time to post season success.

for a stretch he was a top 5 NFL LB.
this probally increases probalility they draft Devon White now

Thanks guys for updating the report.

Burfict seems like a prime candidate to be cut, but I would at least assume we'd let our new DC look at him before we cut him. Anyways, I still think it happens.

[Socal Bengals fan]

Fake news. Are you guys watching CNN ?

[Vas Deferens]

collective boners subsiding in shitsburgh. he would have been signed there within minutes.

Yep,

I don't doubt at all it will happen mostly for his sake. As others have said he was one of the best for a time and I'll miss the attitude he brought.

We will finally get to see if he goes to Pittsburgh or New England and the media will love him and blah blah blah, as people warned us over the years.
