MB and Marvin defend, defend, defend, excuse, excuse, excuse, him and he repays them each year by opening up the year suspended one way or another. Making fools of them.
We mock Eifert, yet Burfict has missed seemingly just as many games in his career and gets a pass, and has cost us games to boot.
I was a big fan of Burficts too, but he's just not reliable, and when people give you a chance and gamble on you, you should be motivated to prove people wrong. At the end of the day Burfict hasn't.
Which could be why the Bengals attained Burfict as an UDFA, and not a 1st round pick like Tyler Eifert. Overall, I'd say the Bengals have gotten their money's worth out of Vontaze. When he's healthy and in the game, he IS the Super Destroyer.
Folks can whine and cry about suspension this, or injury that, but the fact remains that he is one of the most feared players in the NFL. You're much happier having him on your team than the visiting team...
Volson is meh, but I like him, and he has far exceeded my expectations
