Raiders LB Burflict has been suspended for the rest of the season for his blatant brutal helmet-to-helmet hit on Colts TE Doyle. He has had previous repeated such penalties.

He's been a cheap-shot assassin his entire career. He thinks it's great if he can 'eliminate' another player

Eliminating players if you got the chance to do so used to be part of NFL football. Tatum/Atkinson ring a bell?

VB grew up in the wrong era. That stuff doesn't fly anymore.
 
Burfict has always compensated for being a subpar athlete by being ultra violent and intimidating.

He toes the line with breaking rules to allow himself to compete. He's also crossed that line a bajillion times.

If players really care about player safety they should police Burfict the same way they want good cops to police bad cops.

They should tell him in no uncertain terms he's not who they are and he's not welcome.

Some have speculated that the hit he gave Antonio Brown changed ABs life and he has never been the same since. Severe case of CTE. Of course that is a non-medical or scientific diagnosis.

Not publicized, but Brown was diagnosed as bipolar back in high school. Not adhering to rules of treatment and any hit to the head hasn't helped his situation any.

That's an exceptional difference. An anomaly that is part of the math over time (against trend), or has something been done to curb the likelihood of injury?

It does seem in large part that so far it is an anomaly ( the year is not over). This year, teams have gone very lightly in OTAs and preseason even more so than in previous years. Also, there have been some NFL clinics held this year for the first time on training that are geared to strengthen muscles around the knees to try to decrease ACL and other knee injuries. However, a new research that has just come out in the July 2019 edition of The American Journal of Sports Medicine entitled An Anterior Cruciate Ligament Failure Mechanism demonstrates what may be the most important factor explaining non contact ACL rupture. It demonstrates that it is repetitive knee stress and failure to accommodate sufficient rest between periods of strenuous exercise may be key factors behind the rapid rise in anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injuries in world sport. While it is already well recognised that a single supramaximal force can cause ACL failure, it has been assumed that sub-maximal forces could not cause ACL failure. But this world-first research has found that a series of submaximal forces can indeed cause damage to accrue in the ACL, in a process called low-cycle material fatigue, and that same damage is found in ACLs which have failed. Thus the trend of less and less stressfull reps we have seen by teams and there players in the months leading up to the regular season this year could readily explain the dramatic lower number of ACL numbers of ACL ruptures we have seen during that period.

This is the hit that Nate Clements gave him shoulder to helmet. It knocked his helmet off and was hard enough you could hear it.

Just before the rules changed.

More rules have been changed for TB than any player in NFL history

I didn't see it, but I was wondering.

That's a famous hit.

Also shows that why Tom Brady is the toughest QB that ever lived. :thumbup
 
Burfict should have just kept his trap shut.

***************************************************

The NFL has found another illegal hit by Vontaze Burfict on Sunday, Ian Rapoport of the NFL reports.

The Raiders linebacker received a letter this week informing him of an additional helmet-to-helmet hit against the Colts. The league is expected to include that as evidence against him in his appeal.

Burfict played only 16 snaps Sunday. The only play that appeared to prompt a second look came away from the play in the second quarter when, on a Jacoby Brissett scramble, Burfict hit running back Nyheim Hines.

Little Shanny's offense is fun to watch. Lots of TE's and RB's running wide open. Guys running wide open up the seam. Really fun to watch.
Oh....and the BROWNS STILL SUCK

I was just thinking the Browns look like Kubiak's Keystone cops. Remember that year looked like they were inventing ways to lose.

Browns been moving the ball. But when they get close to the end zone, the Buffalo Wild Wings guys turn the sprinklers on.
