Vontaze Burfict!
#45
(05-19-2017, 11:06 AM)Shake n Blake Wrote: I went ahead and checked, and Burfict had 1 bad game. His first game off suspension on a short week.

Game 1: 3 total tackles
Game 2: 10 tackles
Game 3: 8 tackles, 1 sack
Game 4: 8 tackles

Even his first game wasn't bad.... To his team mates.

Burfict ended his three-game suspension in typical fashion Thursday night with a rambunctious, active night where he played all but 11 snaps in the 22-7 win over the Dolphins at Paul Brown Stadium and his teammates didn't think it was a coincidence his 2016 debut matched the strongest defensive effort of the season.


No red-zone appearances for the Dolphins. The Bengals prevented first downs on third down 12 out of 15 times, pitched seven three-and-outs, and in the final 54 minutes held Miami to 148 yards.


"It's amazing to see the plays he made there," said left end [/url]Carlos Dunlap[Image: icon-article-link.gif], who put a mark in all but two defensive categories. "Those are football instinctive plays. Those are things you can't coach. He came off the couch and played like he's been with us the whole time. We're glad to have him because we've got him for the long haul now. We just need to get his wind back."



But defensive coordinator Paul Guenther did such a nice sleight of hand rotating his linebackers; you didn't know who got the bulk of it. When the dust settled, Burfict (36) outplayed them all with [url=http://www.bengals.com/]Vincent Rey[Image: icon-article-link.gif]
 (15), Rey Maualuga[Image: icon-article-link.gif] (23) and Karlos Dansby[Image: icon-article-link.gif](22)having their snaps even out after playing heavily in the first three games.


"I think I was pretty good," Burfict said of his football shape. "I wasn't too winded. I had great help from my teammates calling out the plays because yelling at everybody can get you tired.  My linebackers helped get the call to the secondary and linebackers."



"I felt I could have done more, but the coaches had a plan for me and switched me in and out with Vinny and Karlos and they did a good job of that," Burfict said. "At the end of the game, I started to feel my wind catching up, but every game I'll feel like I'll get better and better and get my legs up under me."
