I couldn't tell from that angle in the play. The original context of "character" quote came off as too Fox News respectability politics useless drivel. It's one thing to have an opinion but don't attack the man's character off the field.

Oh ye of little faith
spin facts suck
When the refs don't handle these things it results in players taking it into their own hands. Burfict went full Marty McSorley because the refs shit the bed.
Have they said anything about Gio?
See now this is the right way to respond to a fk up
they're no jakfacts
How do you not fire him before that then?
In todays NFL that is a dirty hit.
The game was filled with dirty hits. I don't know why people are arguing over one versus the other. To me that was the dirtiest football game I have ever seen. This coming from a guy who has watched the NFL for 30+ years. This from a guy who has seen the Ravens and Steelers play 2-3 times a year for the past 15.
This was something else and the refs did a shit job controlling the game. They have ejected some players in the first quarter and thrown a lot more flags.
Also :lol @ Deion making an argument that Burfect's hit was not dirty. He must just be the unluckiest player in the league with all of the players he maims and injures every other week...
As I said pick mild, good, or, great. Not below mild like a Texan, or Bungle fan. Broncos fans should be better than that.
My big analysis of the matchup will have to come when I am sober brotha!

That was the only right call Philbin made while he was coach there.

I think the advantage for the Broncos is that Steelers D is very exploitable, and if Peyton is even remotely healthy I think he can take advantage of the match ups. On the defensive end with Ben and Brown's being a mystery the D is just going to tee off. I'm scared for Ben's life. Don't think it's a gimme for the Broncos since the game still needs to be played, but I think they have a really good shot.
As for Kansas City and New England... I think Kansas City has a good chance at playing spoiler, if Maclin is healthy. That D will get at Brady, and even though they may be fielding all their receivers I doubt they'll be 100%. Advantage for KC's secondary. This game will be a toss up.

Once again, I'd agree if we were talking about someone other than Burfict. Dude was playing how he has always played.
This weekend is already a success.

The whole Joey Porter being on the field thing needs answers
So everyone in the organization knows this but Ross the dumb fuck brings him back for another season after giving Tannehill a massive franchise QB contract.
:lol so true
Our bum ass doctors let Ben go back in there. If they really cared about his health that never would have happened.
No way he plays with the media hounding them in the playoffs. He's out at least a game where they can actually sell that he's recovered from his injury, but honestly they should really consider not playing him at all the rest of the playoffs. I know this will never happen, but I am always reminded of Marc Savard from the Bruins. Had a nasty concussion came back had another concussion and he was never the same again. In fact last I read he still suffers from those concussions and it's been several years since he got them. Concussions are no joke.
tannehill is setting records for most excuses received by a fan base!
KC's dline should wreck the Pats offensive line if the last few weeks are any indication of what shape their oline is in.

I'm excited to watch the "You Like That" Bowl tomorrow.
No one is going to give you the benefit of the doubt if you have his history and continue to do dumb shit on the field.
Brown didn't lose consciousness. His knees just buckled.
If they cared bout the players Brown would be out for 2-3 months.
But this is the NFL.
His concussion test is going to be straight out of that scene from Creed.

Shoved a ref
it looked like he kind of ran in late when porter was talking and was physical with refs standing between him and porter
I miss Dion Lewis
Dude has balls. Can't put the entire game on him, but he definitely blew it

To me this is the most half-assed part of the NFL current concussion rules. You outlaw helmet to helmet hits. So fucking what? If you can't police the game properly, dudes are going to take cheap shots. You'll penalize them (sometimes), fine them, and hand out suspensions. But it's too fucking late!

So then cut him, but you can't control his ass, you can't get him in line because he crosses it so often. I mean he takes a ton of penalties each year. It's roster construction, and it goes back to who has say. Eventually these guys go off the reservation.
Listen, Lewis has a bunch of talent on that team, they under perform in the playoffs, they also have a shit QB, those are better reasons to fire a guy than not being able to "control" the likes of Burfict and Pacman. Why can't people just say that Lewis should be fired because he's a middle of the road coach?

Why? Why does it need answers? He shouldn't have been on the field but the reaction of the bengals was unprofessional and rediculous. The fault lies on the the bengals side. They should have calmly pointed it out and had a flag thrown.

Ross is a complete moron, Philbin should have been let go back in 2014, he just wasted an entire year.

He went after a coach who was out on the field apparently talking shit, and pushed a ref trying to get after him. That's when the flag came out.

He's a former Steelers player who in all likely hates the Bengals also. Bunch of damn idiots on the Bengals D side.
Fans were no better. Deserved the L
The problem is pretending some helmet to helmet hits are ok. The whole "defenseless player" rules seem to have made everyone involved with football forget that spearing is still against the rules.
He shoved a ref.
Mike Webster died in 2002. For me, that was the big event in the NFL that really started people talking about it. In that same wiki entry you're looking at...

Inadvertently bumped into the back of a ref. It was nothing at all, totally undeserving of a flag and that's without the fact that Porter should have been flagged for going over and starting shit in the first place.
