Definitely agree with him being better than what we have out there now. I just see a lot of posts about Burfict being a game changer once he comes back, and I just think he's an upgrade more than anything else. I think there is also value in not having players that will draw more attention on your ENTIRE defense from the refs. Burfict draws a quick trigger on the entire defense because of his style.

I still have hope he changes it, but especially with the new rules this year on tackling, I don't see how he doesn't get hit with a few big penalties. Look at the roughing the passer calls in the league right now.. he will need to make some big adjustments, and he hasn't even been on the field to experience how differently the refs will call it.
I don't think most of the personal fouls against Burfict has been of the "too rough on the tackle" variety, but more of the extra stuff he has done.
There have been games where he has been the game change though. When he came back for the Pittsburgh game a couple of years ago and accidently tore Bell's ACL, he woke up the team that game I felt just being on the field.
