Agree. Would've been unnecessary roughness drawn.
Absolutely loved Burfict's aggressiveness, and he was playing like a man on fire that game. But, that play was a real shame and killer. The ball was already high and incomplete while Burfict was still 2 yds away from him.
Absolutely no need to be getting in a shot there on Brown at the end of the game in a moment like that. Burfict should never even have touched him.
Situational awareness and discipline (cough cough Marvin Lewis' teams) was an extreme failure in that moment by Burfict.
That said, Burfict's terrific sack on Big Rapelisberger and his late INT which should've practically sealed the game were freaking awesome! (Jeremy Hill you freaking maroon).
