I didn't realize hitting someone with your shoulder was so bad.Idk. I feel like the Brown hit wasn't as bad as people think. It did seem like an attempt at the ball in real time, but with Burficts history and anytime you make such solid contact with the head, you won't get any benefit of the doubt.
Burfict made zero attempt at the ball. Watch the angle from the sideline. He lined him upIdk. I feel like the Brown hit wasn't as bad as people think.

Rex Ryan will be available after next year.Time for Marvin to go.
There is always next year.Hardest game I've ever watched as a Bengals fan. Steelers didn't earn a damn thing tonight.
I like football too...and don't need head hunting to enjoy the game.I want to watch football. I don't enjoy grappling. I enjoy teams of people fighting to move the ball down the field. Not this offense fest where the defense is expected to just let a player go over the middle of the field and not hurt them. #### our stupid legal system that reduces all of us to the lowest common demonminaator and doesn't allow anyone to take any risks. Again, enjoy the patty-cake flag "football" and your superior morality for protecting players from themselves.We were...when we didn't understand head injuries and their impact and former players all with CTE and dying younger than they should.I guess we were just all ####in insane for almost 100 years.Why would anyone think that hit by Burfict should be legal?Enjoy your patty-cake flag "football" kids.
Just dumb to even think that should be allowed.
Add in multi million $$ lawsuits...and of course the NFL is not going to want to allow that.
Watch UFC if you want more violence.
Or before Ben got hurt. I hate the steelers and had them -3 so I'm doubly pissed they won and didn't cover, but they were the better team and had it in the bag if Ben didn't get hurt.Not even when they were up 15-0?Hardest game I've ever watched as a Bengals fan. Steelers didn't earn a damn thing tonight.
Respect them more after hearing them say it.Surprised to see Cowher and Esiason calling for Lewis' head.
And guess what?Damn genius of the Steelers
"Joey head out there and talk some #### to them and see if we can get an extra 15!"
A million times this. Eight years of this ####, and he doesn't even have control of his team.Time for Marvin to go.
Why isn't there a penalty on Pitt for allowing their ball boy out on the field in an injury situation?Damn genius of the Steelers
"Joey head out there and talk some #### to them and see if we can get an extra 15!"
If the receiver is considered defenseless and you hit them in the head/neck area, even if you don't lead with the helmet, there's no discretion. It's a flag in today's game. That was an easy call.Idk. I feel like the Brown hit wasn't as bad as people think. It did seem like an attempt at the ball in real time, but with Burficts history and anytime you make such solid contact with the head, you won't get any benefit of the doubt.
FREAKIN LB coach out there for a hurt WR and is no where near the hurt player. Instead hrs standing in a group of 6 Bengals.Damn genius of the Steelers
"Joey head out there and talk some #### to them and see if we can get an extra 15!"
Legal tackle or not (and it was borderline) bragging on the sideline about concussing another player is not exactly classyCheck the rules BUFFOON, shazier was a legal tackle.Learn how to spell check you buffoon. Both were completely illegal hits to the head.Really dude you are clueless just stop. IdioitLove how Burfict is a thug but Shazier is Man of the year. #### all of you.
You have to know the time and place where you are at. He thought it was week 18 and not Round 1 of the playoffs. When it is win or go home and you are winning with seconds left, you don't give it away.Idk. I feel like the Brown hit wasn't as bad as people think. It did seem like an attempt at the ball in real time, but with Burficts history and anytime you make such solid contact with the head, you won't get any benefit of the doubt.

NFL refs tarnish this game.A million times this. Eight years of this ####, and he doesn't even have control of his team.I don't even know why I'm so upset, I'm not even a Bengals fan; but Jesus, I am tried of seeing games where the refs affect the outcome more than the players do.Time for Marvin to go.
Exactly. There was nothing wrong with Shazier's hit.Yep. Bernard wasn't defenseless, Brown was. End of the story per the current NFL rules.I think Shazier gets fined, but he was tackling a runner in a a live game play. There is no penalty for helmet to helmet on a runner. His sideline actions clearly show he is a thug and a doosh, but it was legal. Burfict took Brown's head off after the play was done, clearly incomplete and that is a personal foul on a defenseless receiver. Hence the penalty. Both were correct calls by the refs, pure and simple.Love how Burfict is a thug but Shazier is Man of the year. #### all of you.
Idk seems like it was a pretty dumb move.Look at the score after that play.I guess Tomlin will sleep easy after challenging that fumble.![]()
Why? Lewis is to blame for the entire fiasco.Surprised to see Cowher and Esiason calling for Lewis' head.
It wasn't borderline. Bernard was not defenseless, Shazier can go helmet to helmet all day long and it's not illegal.Legal tackle or not (and it was borderline) bragging on the sideline about concussing another player is not exactly classyCheck the rules BUFFOON, shazier was a legal tackle.Learn how to spell check you buffoon.

Definitelyit wasstill think the second penalty was bs
Games like this are why I watch. I think your instincts are right.This close to becoming a soccer fan.
That was an embarrassment for the league.This close to becoming a soccer fan.

Oh I know here we go, all on the refs. Because cincy has 2 classless thugs. Everyone knew burfict would @@@@ up. And that great citizen PAC man or is it Adam now would implode.The boner the NFL has had for Pitt over the last fifteen years has been incredible![]()
An attempt at the ball? His hands were at his waist. Was he trying to catch the ball with his ear-hole, and just happened to put his shoulder into Brown's head?I didn't realize hitting someone with your shoulder was so bad.Idk.

Same here...not really a Bengals fan, but live in an area where their games are on all the time and news in the paper everyday so I end up rooting for them most games. Lewis needs to go.A million times this. Eight years of this ####, and he doesn't even have control of his team.Time for Marvin to go.

Are you to mainly blame when a student of yours does something stupid?Why? Lewis is to blame for the entire fiasco.Surprised to see Cowher and Esiason calling for Lewis' head.

game is over. game was over when they kicked the 2nd fg. llllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllmI get it at times...but given how the game has gone...forcing 2 TDs an having to go for 2 twice is almost as good really.2 pointer forces three scores.Why go for 2?
XP forces two TDs and two 2 point conversions
haha. not so fast tho.The refs have made some bad calls against Pittsburgh as well. And with the way McCarton has played, I don't think any sane person can say the refs dictated the outcome of this game.Someone is going to get f'd up next Pitt possession. Refs letting it get out of hand.![]()
Did he bump the refs? Have not watched all the replays but appears he did...pretty easy 15.That second flag was BS.
