That's disgusting if true. Could be twisted around by Rapoport but he's usually good with info. Fucked up
I don't believe he "made" hill apologize......I would guess that hill wanted to and he permitted it
I hope so. That would be fucked up if true.That's a fake Rapoport account.
I hope so. That would be fucked up if true.
Exactly, one should expect more professionalism, but they are not better than the gladiator slaves in Rome.what a billion dollar fucked up league
You cannot fire him ... He was destroying the league before losing his starting QB
Burfict is much more risk than reward. He went undrafted and is currently signed in a 4 year 20 million dollar deal. He had like 70 tackles with 1 sack and 2 interceptions during the regular season. If you compare the other LB making that kind of money there are clearly better talents without the behavior issues. Everyone knew that he was a ticking time bomb in that game and Lewis didn't have the ability to sit the bum. That's on Lewis. That's a fireable offense especially with the post season record Lewis is bringing to the table.
Burfict missed a bunch of games this year, didn't he? If I'm not mistaken he led the NFL in tackles in 2013, and only played in a half dozen or so games in 2014 due to injury. I'm certainly not dismissing his issues, but let's stop acting like he's just some scrub on the field.
The entire crew at CBS knew he was a time bomb. Lewis knew. Lewis couldn't control him or Jones. Lewis can't win a playoff game with good teams. Lewis stinks. Lewis should be fired.
Does anyone have footage of what Jones did to draw the 2nd flag? I haven't seen it.
The entire crew at CBS went on and on about it, you're right. Outside of him being pretty amped up (like most every other player on the field), and the crew continually monitoring his every move, he was fantastic in that game. Got the big sack of Ben AND the INT that should have sealed the game outside of the Hill fumble.
When I saw the replay during the game that they showed, he didn't do anything but say something to Joey Porter (who clearly shouldn't have been on the field to begin with). There was a group of Bengals players surrounding Porter, and Pacman came in late and the flag was immediately thrown. From the replay they showed, there was no contact whatsoever between Jones and Porter. It was a completely BS flag...that should have, at the very least, been a situation where there were offsetting penalties since Porter was on the field.
The Bengal lost because their players are braindead thugs, taking headshots and attacking referees.
AND ran into the tunnel like a baboon.
Shazier should have been flagged for that hit imo. If that's not against the rules they need to change the rule.
"Jones tried to push through an official to confront Porter.
According to Rule 13.1.2, only trainers are allowed on the field to tend to injured players. Coaches have to ask for permission from officials. So unless Porter got the OK – and that was unknown after the game – he should have been penalized 15 yards, too."
No doubt. The whole "defenseless" receiver situation is the only thing anyone kept talking about but that was a moot point. So Bernard was not defenseless after the catch...great....Shazier still led with the crown of his helmet and made contact with Gio's helmet.
That is EXACTLY the hit they were supposed to be trying to get out of the game of football (Shazier could have ended up paralyzing himself with that type of hit)...and not only was it not flagged, all anyone kept talking about was the defenseless receiver which wasn't even the point/reason he should have been flagged. Nobody know what the fuck they're talking about, or knows the rules for anything anymore in today's NFL. It's such a fucking joke how horrible their product currently is.
Shazier should have been flagged for that hit imo. If that's not against the rules they need to change the rule.
Agree with all of that and I'd argue that he was defenseless. He couldn't/didn't see that hit coming.
