It was a total lose-lose for the Bengals and Burfict. If they extended him, the cloud of suspension would loom over them. If they let him go, the fan base would point to it as another example of the team letting it's best players walk and not doing everything to win.
The D played well the first three games without Burfict, so I at least have some confidence they won't totally implode without him.
