Only to be shouted down by the upper hierarchy fans that he was the heart and soul of the team.

Oh well, better late than never.

I dont remember being shouted down directly, but yeah I was part of the 'cut him' crowd quite a few years ago, which was cemented with his blatent head hunting hit on AB in the playoff game. Then it was cemented even more when he went low into Gio in camp when Gio was coming back from a torn acl, and the RB coach got into his face about it and Burfict shoved him. Shoved ... a ... coach. Then of course some of his other actions from flipping off the Jags crowd after being ejected to you name it, as he compiled a nice little list over the years.

Overall though, Burfict was always a dirty player, either doing little dirty crap or the blatant cheap shots. And I have never been a fan of dirty players. Hard hitting clean players, love em though. Burfict tho, embarrassing he was on a team I am fan of.

And if he really was a leader on this team when he was here, then they had a lot of problems for someone like him to be looked up to as a leader.
