Completely clean and legal, but it was violent & the ref threw a flag. December 4, 2017 at 11:58 pm Later, Burfict returns to his account of the Brown hit, reluctantly drawn into an explanation very few will agree with: "I feel like he looked at me. Smith-Schuster’s hit provided a similar threat — he targeted a defenseless player in the head and neck area, which forced Burfict to be carted off. Really dirty hit. What he did had nothing to do with football. This used to be a “good block.” Anyway, can’t feel bad for the recipient on this one. People wanted Gronk burned at the stake, and celebrate Juju. Questionable call on Bryant’s run back, but it was a hold, just didn’t affect the play. Where exactly does the millions in fines each week go? Didn’t think this would come back to bite you so soon after getting all up in Gronk’s business. And this was nowhere near as bad as Gronk’s hit. This was headhunting pure and simple. Still pretty bad though and he’ll be hearing from the league office for sure. Hey, just following your script Steeler fans. What a despicable organization the steelers are! What say you now?” Don’t know how the refs let that go…incompetent. FOX analyst Troy Aikman tweeted, “This game is hard to watch for a number of reasons. Ironic turn of events for the Steelers fans that jumped on their soap box about Gronk. JJSS threw a block that was critical to the play currently unfolding. After a long layoff, he is back and bringing value to the WWE ...read more, Two of the top teams in the AFC went head to head on Monday night but Kansas City came out on top as the Chiefs beat the Bills 26-17. This had the makings of a good football game, but the officiating was pretty terrible and the game devolved into something less than football. Deb says: Burned up all the goodwill he had from his cute little bicycle antics. So this explains why Brown is willing to pay a possible fine, though Smith-Schuster has now been suspended. Hines Ward would be proud of this dirty hit. Not a member? The Hines Ward rule says direct hit to the head/neck area. This was not a blindside. Stuff like this is what makes the NFL laughable. Its the same story every game first the refs bail them out. Terrible for the NFL and the game of football overall.”. In the 60’s, 70’s and 80’s, this type of play was the norm. 2, JuJu taunted him afterwards. As Burfict was … if its Burfict or JuJu I'm Team JuJu all the way, Steeler nation loves it, though. …and everyone in the league cheered the hit! Should be draft picks removed and a heavy fine. The refs. I’ll add that if you can be ejected for 2 personal fouls it shouldn’t matter if both fouls are enforced and you should be gone. justify that one…. Rookie learned the cheap shot Steeler way quick. Cheap shot. Why JuJu Smith-Schuster was suspended 1 game for his dangerous hit on Vontaze Burfict, Arch Manning is the 15-year-old QB poised to be football’s next big thing. The contact you made with your opponent placed the opposing player at risk of serious injury and could have been avoided. More importantly, yet again another atrociously officiated game that benefited the steelers. It's almost like football isn't a classy game. Had he not stood over him like an a$$ there would have been no flag on the play. This looked like a legit shot to the chest from me.

It's a shame because he's an exciting playmaker. He told reporters he didn’t know it was Burfict: JuJu Smith-Schuster said he had no idea that was Vontaze Burfict that he leveled. Hey, only one game for Gronk… JuJu’s like, “hey, I can appeal a one game suspension down to nothing too!” While I don’t agree any player should have his head targeted, no one but the most ardent Bengal fan would not have expected retribution to #55. A brutal brutal game on both sides. pic.twitter.com/rX6COmuxoE. Hits that deliberately result in concussions like this one and Gronk’s should be met with severe suspensions (e.g a full season). No suspension yet, why would there be one now? The game might challenge the Raiders-Broncos game from two weeks ago for the amount of money paid in fines. Deserves it all day. Steeler nation loves it, though. Yeah what a classless player. Got it, Since it was obviously intended and he celebrated, he should be banned. So spare me the indignation. There was no uncalled holding for which to retaliate. ——————————————————–. Get off you soapbox 80%. Juju should likely just sit out the next few pitt/cincy games becuase Burfict is going to look to take his head off. Please enough with the over reacting that it was a cheap shot…it wasn’t. Anyway, keep your head on a swivel when you’re on the field. JuJu acted like a jerk in taunting, and he should have drawn the flag, but the play itself was nothing to Burfict’s usual MO. Refs cost the Bengals the W with the silly holding flag on the Green TD. And now your boy JuJu with a cheap shot every bit as bad as Gronk, if not worse because he stood over him after. But the game is about tackling the opponent. Learn how your comment data is processed. Bengals linebacker Vontaze Burfict was on the receiving end of a dirty hit from Pittsburgh Steelers receiver Juju Smith-Schuster. In his letter to Smith-Schuster notifying him of the suspension, NFL VP of Football Operations Jon Runyan wrote: “You are suspended for the dangerous and unsportsmanlike acts you committed during the fourth quarter of last night’s game. JuJu Smith-Schuster leveled Vontaze Burfict with a dirty hit. That doesn't make it OK to hit Burfict with dirty shots, however, and that's precisely what JuJu Smith-Schuster did on Monday night. In the fourth quarter, JuJu Smith-Schuster hit Vontaze Burfict with a brutal hit to the helmet. Especially if you apologized for this exact incident and said “that’s not me.”. As a Bills fan, I can’t even compare this one to Gronk. It was a cheap shot and the taunting was just as bad or worse. Burfict immediately tried to take his helmet off. a shoulder to the sternum of Burfict. JuJu knew exactly who he was lining up and intentionally went for the head. For those saying this was worse than Gronk…no it wasn’t. Your conduct following the hit fell far below the high standards of sportsmanship expected of an NFL player.”.
