Nothing wrong with Burfict's hit.

and nothing was wrong with Shazier's hit.

and nothing was wrong with that Bengal's safety's hit earlier too that was called for a PF.

Refs are ridiculous...... Penalties need to be able to be reviewed.

 

[Tankard]

Big Ben is constipated.

 

[JABEE]

Disgusting fanbase.

 

[DrForester]

Bengals fans throwing stuff at Ben. That's disgusting.

 

[Bessy67]

It's not a penalty, people don't know what they're talking about. It just looks bad because the hit earlier wasn't a penalty either, but was called one.

"headhunting"? lol

No, you don't know what you're talking about. It was definitely a missed penalty.

There doesn't only have to be one scumbag. Burfect is a known asshole, but Shazier dancing around like a clown after knocking a dude unconscious was scummy, and probably also pissed off the other team while your starting QB was still in the game. Good job, good effort, Shazier.

I think he was excited that the play was called a fumble.

Edit: Bengals fans the biggest scumbag of all?

 

[MechDX]

Lol

 

[sf2fanatic]

You too.

Gonna need it. Just to able to afford Doyer tickets if they keep raising them prices!! *sigh

 

[mr2xxx]

Yeah, Shazier is the scumbag bruhs

Clean hit by Burfict, didn't go for the head or below the knees. Nothing real special about that sack actually.

 

[AngmarsKing701]

Crowd cheering and throwing shit at Ben?

Fuck you, Cincinnati.

 

[coolasj19]

Y'know the line "The crowd was even cheering as Ben was carted to the locker room", kind of sums up everything to the point where I don't need a recap.

 

[Lonestar]

least they ain't batteries

 

[Mudcrab]

Cheering injuries and throwing debris at a player smh.

 

[PopeReal]

So all players can lead with helmet on a runner? Well damn the Bengals should fuck some steelers up then.

And damn that Bengals crowd has lost it.

 

[Eleuin]

 

[SunhiLegend]

 

[Salaadin]

Bengals fans are horrible

 

[Grexeno]

Cincy fans throwing shit at a guy getting carted off the field. Disgusting. Even if he is a rapist.

 

[LiK]

I LOVE the direction this game is taking.

now i know what's it like to be in the WWE threads

 

[Flakster99]

Come the fuck on Cincinnati, find a way to get some points.

Fuck Pittsburgh.

 

[cr_blah_blah]

Ben's shoulder will heal.
Being the Bengals? That's forever.

 

[Bread]

I LOVE the direction this game is taking.

fuckin LLs

 

[asdad123]

It's a clean hit with an intention to hurt. He drove him into the ground with all of his weight. It is what it is though. You're going to have a chippy hard hitting games with two division opponents facing off in the playoffs.

Drove him to the ground with all his weight? Are you kidding me? Ben was running back and fell with the Bengal on top. Nothing wrong with that hit.

 

[slightconfuse]

AJ macciron is still the QB guys

 

[Futureman]

Bengals are pathetic if they don't score on this drive.

 

[Elfforkusu]

.

 

[KaYotiX]

Looks like a collarbone injury on Ben

 

[Greg]

too bad AJ is the QB or this could be a game still!

 

[DrForester]

whoa

Broncos going to the AFC championship

I was hoping for them to play anyone but KC next week. I think they pose the biggest threat to Denver.

 

[Butts-a-plenty]

Disgusting fanbase.

Dude come on, how can you even say this unironically?

 

[Yaboosh]

I believe the difference is that helmet to helmet hits are allowed when it's tackler/runner. They happen all the time. When Adrian Peterson and a defender meet, they lower their heads and bang into each other's heads. The problem in this case is that this hit was absolutely on the finest line between "He's a defenseless receiver!" and "He's a runner!" which results in a brutal fucking hit, but one that by the rules was probably not a penalty.

You cannot initiate contact with the crown of your helmet.12-2-Article 8

 

[jakncoke]

Ben will be fine that's what painkillers were discovered for

 

[Line_HTX]

I don't like Ben, but please DO NOT THROW stuff at him. The crowd is really classless.

 

[NomarTyme]

Gonna need it. Just to able to afford Doyer tickets if they keep raising them prices!! *sigh

I'll buy the team!

 

[Violence Jack]

Sounds like I missed a bunch of fuckball, lucky catches, and cheap hits.

Throwing shit at a dude getting carted off the field.....

 

[JABEE]

The save!

 

[Zvonimir Boban]

and nothing was wrong with Shazier's hit.

and nothing was wrong with that Bengal's safety's hit earlier too that was called for a PF.

Spearing breh.

 

[Trey]

Maybe you guys should learn the rules before chatting shit.

You good, pimping. Keep it moving.

 

[MetalFearSolid]

Bullshit flag

 

[Striker]

Green had a chance.

 

[Grover Cleveland]

When in doubt Flacco

 

[Pepiope]

Damn, trash thrown on Ben, this is ugly

but everyone will forget that, and remember Eagle fans booing Santa 30 years ago.

 

[Josh5890]

Well that was the break Cincy needed

 

[squicken]

DPI? idk 'bout that
e: good call

 

[Bread]

Dude come on, how can you even say this unironically?

:jnc

[LionPride]

Hopefullu they score here and make it interesting

 

[Manus]

Maybe you guys should learn the rules before chatting shit.

Please read us the rules. Was a clean hit I don't see how any person who has watched football for years could say that was a dirty hit.

 

[Ninja Scooter]

It's time.

 

[Draconian]

Love how spearing people in the face is ok in this league

 

[Tankard]

Refs are so lost.
