So Burfict either has to go low and risk blowing up AB's knees, possibly crippling him, or just letting him make the catch, but that's the NFL today.
He also realizes that he's being singled-out, so he has to be even more careful than the average player:
If he wasn't 55 or if he just wasn't a Bengal against the Steelers.
Maybe now he'll start playing like he knows he's being singled out, which playing with more control will make him even better, so let's hope so.
This might be one of the dumbest things I've ever read. You go low to avoid hitting other players in the head and giving them concussions. You can hit players low without going for their knees. All you have to do is hit them in the numbers or thighs.
You people kill me. You act like this is some new revelation from the NFL that they are going to try and take high hits to the head out of the game, and rightfully so. You do realize that former players are literally dying and killing themselves because of CTE and brain damage, right?
But hey, that's the NFL. Just one big ***** league. Who cares if the game is killing people.
The boys are just talkin' ball, babyyyy
