Jeremy Hill was trying his hardest to gain yards and seal the game
Vontaze Burfict was the reason we were winning the game
I do blame the refs for not calling a foul when Gio received a cheaper hit than AB and they didn't call that one. Burfict may have thought "they're letting us play"
I do blame the refs for not flagging Joey Porter for running onto the field, but instead flag Pacman for telling him to GTFO.
So I blame the refs. They should have been wearing black and yellow instead of black and white
While I agree that hit on Gio was cheap, that hit wasn't a penalty at the time. Some contrived rule that you could hit a guy in the head once he's established as a runner. Conveniently it's a personal foul now.... And yes; Burfict definitely thought they were letting them play. On the micd up highlights you hear him say it on the sidelines
I dislike Joey Porter as much as any Bengals fan, but he and Tomlin played us like a fiddle. I don't think him bring out on the field was a penalty at the time. Mr I Play Better Without My Meds should've shown a lil restraint like every other guy in the huddle... And like Pacman has failed to do time and time again.
Water under the bridge though... Sack up and move on like you said way back then. Usually posts don't stick with me, but I found that one amusing.
