What I'm saying is that what he did in college has nothing to do with anything. The only thing that matters is each play and whether an actual foul was committed. There can't be one set of rules for him and another for everyone else, plain and simple. Why are you so against Burfict?
^This^
Look there's no doubt Burfict's actions in the past have helped cement a target on him, no doubt. And if he steps on a guys throat or twists an ankle or whatever I'd have no problem with a fine suspension etc.
This play has zero to do with any of the past issues It was a perfectly clean completely legal hit ! There was no blow to the helmet neck area, it was not in the knees/low. It wasn't a fist/arm to the head, it wasn't late by any standard.
And still he gets a flag. Complete BS call and mark my words if the Bengals don't raise holy hell about it more are coming.
Let the man play football.
