So, that doesn't just make it a "Burfict" thing. It just may make it a Bengal thing.
Do you watch other games? People are penalized for hits all the time. Some are questionable once you see them on replay, some are egregious. Every week there is a list of players who are fined by the NFL, many times for calls that were missed during the game. It's an NFL thing because they have to clean up their reputation when it comes to player safety. They just paid out almost a billion dollars to ex players, with many more suits to follow.
