It should get reduced to zero.

2, maybe 1.

Or it could be an attempt to set a precedent and kept at 3

Sources tell me "very likely" Ben Roethlisberger (shoulder) plays Sunday at Denver, but "not looking good" for Antonio Brown (concussion).

If the Bengals cut him, 31 teams will line up to sign him. The steelers will be first in line.

Ben is playing...zero doubt. He had 30 yard ability, he'll be near full arm by Sunday (I hope)...at least have Manning noodle arm.

He's Marvin Lewis kind of player too.

Top 5 LB in all NFL, too bad he couldn't control himself for 1 play and then 18 more seconds....would've been a hero. Oh well, only out $500,000 and cost his team their biggest win in 25 years.

I haven't gone through this whole thread but the goat horns should be on Jeremy Hill. If he doesn't fumble, none of this happens. Dumb & Dumber likely never set foot on the field for the Bengals for the rest of that game. Bengals gifted the Steelers that win.

Yeah, not really as far as a suspension goes. He deserves to serve time but 3 games is a bit stiff.

Joey Porter should be banned from Pittsburgh's sidelines for the rest of the playoffs though. Heard where the Bengals defensive coordinator (Guenther?) went over and spoke to Porter before the game, warning him to stay away from the Bengals players because he has a history of starting shit/goading players, and Porter played right into it, causing dumbass Pacman to lose his mind.

Could've took a knee 3x....and kicked a short FG and not left much time left also.

Regardless, Burfict had a chance to be the hero for a franchise and couldn't handle not being a little dirty. He promised Lewis and his team he would on his best behavior.

It would've been about a 50 yard FG but I get the point. In hindsight, that's probably what they should've done but it was probably the last thing on Lewis' mind at that point. If they do hit the FG, highly likely Pittsburgh doesn't get a TD to win it.

I'm by no means defending Burfict. He's a complete turd. There's a big reason he went undrafted.

The suspension for that hit is bullshit. Those hits happen every week. Flag? Sure. Fine? Sure.

"Repeat offender" with a massive media outcry and negative publicity on the situation. He's no more of a repeat offender than dozens of other players.

Does Cortland Finnegan get a suspension every time he commits a personal foul? He's got 15 of them in less than the last 5 years.

Dozens? Who?

Did any of them get fined for 3 plays in a single game, then follow up a month later with more fine worth incidents?


I'll wait.

I'm talking about getting personal fouls. I'm not saying Burfict is innocent, but I'm saying I believe this suspension was levied in a huge part because everyone in the media called for it.

The term "repeat offender" pretty much covers anyone who has been penalized/fined previously. It's an undefined term in this context.

Keep the tears rolling Cincinnati, since you can't provide meaningful wins ever, you can at least provide amusement!
