First of all he collided helmet to helmet with Brown. Second of all. What? You really need to rethink your argument there.

There was a penalty for the hit, so I stand corrected. I thought it was for the taunt afterwards but I guess not.

Doesn’t matter. I’m not one who says there has to be a penalty to get in trouble. But I do think you have to break a rule.

You have to have a job to use a 401k so no.

He lowered his head trying to make a helmet to helmet hit on Brown, but missed and got his own team mate. He wasn't just a gust of wind on Brown, was the point I was making. You missed it. I tried to be as obvious about it as I could but I forgot I'm arguing with Bengals fans so I have to break out the crayons because I'm "rolling" out of ways to help you understand your hypocrisy.

Come on, you're a better poster than that. You're not Brad or some of those other jokers on the JN. He was wrapped up by two players, his progress was stopped, he was on his way down and Burfict came in with a lowered shoulder toward his head. He could've pulled up. He had plenty of time. He didn't and only caught ABs shoulder first, then his head, then more solidly Bates forehead. The intent was there and it's obvious. It was stupid for any player let alone VB who's got a giant target on his back AND a history. Well, because of his history.
At least be honest and admit the obvious.

His head? His head came nowhere near him. But if he didn’t hit him with the crown that too would be legal. And you can graze one object and forcibly his a second object, but I like how you continue to ignore the guys collision with Brown as the probable cause of his injury because Burfict.
Geeze I kinda thought I was a reasonable Bengal fan as is evidenced throughout this forum.

That doesn’t make it illegal. That’s all I’m saying.

I’ll add, I wish we could go on intention. You can make that play illegal and not flag all the penalties where someone grazes a QBs helmet or hits helmet to helmet because a WR ducks. I’d gladly make that trade.

And while I’m at it, why does Dak Prescott have a Chunky soup commercial? He had like 8 good games with an all star line and a RB tearing it up 2 years ago. ( I realize this may be off topic a little bit)
This comment was made before he fumbled in his own end zone. Sorry about the jinx, Dak.
And is anyone else riveted by the chick in green’s boobs in the Verizon commercial?

He did.
Rule 12 Section 2 Article 6(b)
Unnecessary Roughness
running, diving into, or throwing the body against or on a runner whose forward progress has been stopped, who has slid feet first, or who has declared himself down by going to the ground untouched and has made no attempt to advance (see 7- 2-1-a, d);

Forward progress before a whistle? Never seen that called once. People constantly his people who are stopped but not down before the whistle. Turn on any game and see how long it takes to see someone hit someone on their way to the ground. Tackled not sliding.

Right before he hits Browns, you can clearly see Burfict lowering his head. Just because he didn't hit Brown with his head, doesn't mean he wasn't trying to.

And? Say you are 100% correct. If he doesn’t hit with the crown it’s legal, and trying and missing isn’t a violation.
Nothing on the chick in green?

It's unnecessary roughness though which means it's not legal. Brown wasn't going anywhere. He didn't need to take that cheap shot. I guarantee you if he was a Steelers, the Bengals would be saying it was a cheap shot and should be suspended. It's a double standard.

Oh please. Again watch any game and count how many times a guy is hit going to the ground. You cant get out of your head that it was in the area of the head which doesn’t matter.

So, just because people do it doesn't mean it's legal. People hold on plays and get away with it and it doesn't make it legal.
