Johnny Nix Posted October 23, 2017 Share Posted October 23, 2017 7 minutes ago, THE DUKE said: The ref 5 yards away was staring right at him and didn't throw a flag. I think they just ignore it and it goes away in a few days. He didn’t get flagged for his last suspension either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Especially considering the guy was trying to "fall" on Burfict for the 2nd time after the whistle had blown. Not sure where you see the guy 'fall' on Burfict. It looked like the Steelers FB Nix was just moving Burfict off of his RB Bell. Perfectly normal thing for a player to do. You see 2-3 guys on top of your RB, you move them so your guy can get up. Nix didn't even shove Burfict, just moved him a bit. I have no love for the Steelers but Burfict was in the wrong here. Nix did a good job of finding Burfict and making it a tough day for him. Burfict needs to grow up and not do dumb stuff just because he's frustrated on the field. I don't think he'll get a suspension for this, but I won't mind if he does. Marvin Lewis will never punish him so the NFL has to do it for him... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they start suspending for every shove (which is basically what this is, just with the feet), no team could field a roster. Can we all just let this go now? Who freaking cares about a little push?

I agree. I don't think he should be suspended, but I'm not going to get angry if he is. I thought the preseason suspension was BS, that was a 'football' play. I'm not a fan of 'none' football plays, like kicking a guy. Dude needs to grow up... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed. More "Much ado about Nothin" than Shakepeare could create on his own. He pushed Nix off with his feet. End of story Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would have been weakest suspension ever. Repeat offender or no, hardly had a chance to cause any sort of injury, short of a scrape requiring a cool batman bandaid.

Agree it would be the weakest suspension ever, just wish that he'd grow the $#&÷ up and stop putting the team in situations where he could get suspended. Helluva player, just dumber than a box of rocks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beck Bristow Posted October 27, 2017 Share Posted October 27, 2017 So I am just driving home listening to the radio and the national sportswriter guy is talking about the Kiko Alonso hit on Flacco and how he didn't think it was intentional. He then went on to say that if it was Burfict, he would think it was intentional because of his history of cheap shotting qbs and should be suspended for it. I think I need to just stop listening to sports radio. The hypocrisy is killing me. Maybe I will get a Taylor Swift CD for the car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beck Bristow Posted October 27, 2017 Share Posted October 27, 2017 And now that Columbus has two FM stations, I usually just flip between the two. I might be a masochist. I mean, I am a Bengals fan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Common Man and T-Bone is the great....but Bobby C. is my favorite person on any of the shows.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beck Bristow Posted October 27, 2017 Share Posted October 27, 2017 Bobby is pretty great. Common man isn't my favorite, but I listen to them. They have a new afternoon show on 105.7 that isn't bad. I think I keep flipping hoping they will talk about the Bengals, but it never happens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
