MOSteelers56 Posted September 30, 2019 Share Posted September 30, 2019 I feel like I've seen more egregious from Burfict. He was absolutely headhunting, but he's done worse. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BroncosFan2010 Posted September 30, 2019 Share Posted September 30, 2019 He should be gone for the year. The league needs to make a point. I honestly don't even know if he intends to hurt people or if he is so freaking stupid that he literally only knows how to tackle by jumping head first. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shockwave Posted September 30, 2019 Share Posted September 30, 2019 Wow...just seeing the clip for the 1st time. Definitely intentional and heinous. A long suspension is totally warranted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dome Posted September 30, 2019 Share Posted September 30, 2019 Should be forever tbh hes a garbage person, people will disagree saying “YOU DONT KNOW HIS LIIIIIIFE” ive seen how reckless he is with the well-being of others. Garbage person. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Garbage person. I mean you're not wrong but the NFL/Goodell has so thoroughly screwed up the suspension protocol at this point that if they suspend Burfict forever it just brings back every other case where someone does something worse than headhunt off the field, then gets 2 games or 4 games or whatever.

Good. I hate them all. NFL included. If they all look bad, I’m loving it. Edited September 30, 2019 by Dome Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RaidersAreOne Posted September 30, 2019 Author Share Posted September 30, 2019 Regarding the impact for the Raiders, it's a big blow. His dirty play and hits like this are well-known, but he was a damn good LB for us this year so far. Not only as a player but he's the captain of the D, wears the green dot and knows the system to a T. Losing him is losing a lot more than just a physical LB. We need to bring in at least 2-3 more LB's even after promoting Phillips to the 53 and signing Dakota Allen from the Rams PS. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slateman Posted September 30, 2019 Share Posted September 30, 2019 He can't play anymore. I'm not commenting on his character, I'm not commenting on his ability. I'm saying that we have categorical evidence that he is incapable of playing this game in a safe manner. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

goldfishwars Posted September 30, 2019 Share Posted September 30, 2019 Who could have foreseen this could happen? You gotta feel sorry for the Raiders front office, guy has been a picture of virtue his whole career and in no way are they to blame for inviting this possibility. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He can't help himself, and he pretty much gets suspended every season. Can't rely on a player like that... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
