On the topic of Jones and Iloka. I frankly don't care. Jones got chopped to the neck and saw red. These people complaining about Jones being a disgrace obviously have never been in his shoes and in this situation before. You're loaded with adrenaline playing every single down in a violent fast paced sport and you get chopped to the neck? what did you expect him to do ? It doesn't matter what you expect him to do because you're not the moral authority on all things.
George Iloka's foul was a mistake, but only because of his body position. If he does that a foot away and not on him it probably doesn't get called. Even if it does I can't fault the dude for living in the moment. Its what makes these players great.
If anything the travesty of this game was the call on Kirkpatrick. Lets be clear i dont care just because it was a Bengals game, but this is a pure bullshit call that has a trickle down effect in this league. Even that waste of space Chris Simms said afterwards " The League is removing this from the game " . I am sorry, but when has shit talking not been allowed on a football field ? This is part of the mental warfare of football that makes the game great.
