THAT defense in Minnesota!

THAT defense in Seattle!

Ok ok ok, Russell Wilson doesn't suck. He just sucks occasionally.

Carson Wentz has seen some of last year's issues surface over the past couple of weeks. Gotta get those mechanics back under control.

Juju deserves a significant suspension for his hit and subsequent taunting of Burfict. The NFL cannot tolerate that kind of targeting.

I really hope Ryan Shazier is OK. He's by far the most fun MLB to watch in the league, and if it wasn't for two guys named Wagner and Kuechly, he'd be the best, too.

Didn't think the hit by JuJu was that bad. It looked brutal, but Burfict was moving to make a play on the ball and JuJu hit him in the numbers with his shoulder. Also understand the taunting as he didn't know he was hurt instantly and it's a rivalry game and JuJu likes to have fun.

And based your post, Iloka should get suspended too for the hit on Antonio.

You are such a little baby, god. If it were Thielen that made that hit, you'd be clamoring how he's an even better blocker than any other white WR in the league (which isn't true either btw)
 
How can you "significantly suspend" someone for a clean hit??! You can't lead with your head, you can't hit the other guy's head or below the knees... where else is he allowed to hit the guy? He led with his shoulder, hit him clean in the chest... hell, its not much different than the Michael Floyd hit last year when he was in New England, and that was an ESPN top 10 play for weeks.
 
The taunting was the bad part about that play. It's a perfectly clean hit and is textbook for how you want your receivers to legally block. He'll get significantly fined for the taunting, but that's fucking shit if he's suspended any time for that hit.

Exactly. I'm all for eliminating hits to the head but this is getting ridiculous now.

I'd feel a lot worse about Juju's hit if he didn't do it to the most notoriously dirty player in the league.

JuJu's hit was actually a crackback block, which is illegal, and an automatic 15 yard penalty. Eliminating these blocks was a point of emphasis this year for the NFL and referees

Am I going to be the asshole who has to say that no hit on Burfict should be considered illegal?
