Lol Aw come on Cincy, he pulled the Ric Flair where the ref couldn't see. All that was missing was the strut.

Would you guys turn down Ndamukong Suh because of his extra-curricular activity on the field?
Yes, and you know why, because that shit kills you in the playoffs. Do you remember the game Orlando Brown is most remembered for? How about the game Darren Stone is most remembered for?
They are going to go over to Houston in the Wildcard round and he's going to pull some stuff like this, and get caught, and it's going to crush any momentum they have up to that point. Book it. In the playoffs, this type of stuff gets exposed.

Imagine Burfict next to Daryl Smith, or even in a 4-3, with Arthur Brown in the mix.
TMI.
Re: This is EXACTLY why I am glad the Ravens did not draft Vontaze Burfict.
Who cares if hes a dirty player? Hes still really really good at football. Not saying that makes it ok, but he would certainly help this team win football games, and thats worth a 7th round pick baggage or not

Co-Sign.
Bad attitude or not would have loved to have him in purple. Our own Suh :crazy:
Suggs would set him straight, he's been in his shoes.
Re: This is EXACTLY why I am glad the Ravens did not draft Vontaze Burfict.
Burfict never would have become as good a player here as he's been with the Bengals. In fact I don't think he would be able to do the same thing on any other team. Marvin and Zimmer where exactly what he needed. Few other coaches would have gotten him to buy into their program. Harbaugh certainly would have no time for a lot of the nonsense that went on the start of last season.

Doubtful.
I also don't believe that Burfict would be a good fit in Baltimore's 3-4/hybrid D. He is a good 4-3 linebacker.
Re: This is EXACTLY why I am glad the Ravens did not draft Vontaze Burfict.
I was one of his harshest critics before the draft and i still thought he was worth bringing in as a UDFA, if not a late pick. Talent was there, his head just wasnt right and he had a tendency to get personal fouls. I didnt see the play in question, but I think hes proven to be a great value and some of those personal foul issues must have been corrected or this wouldnt be the first instance im hearing about.

Is that was Billick used to call a slap dick?
Re: This is EXACTLY why I am glad the Ravens did not draft Vontaze Burfict.
R-title for the pun of the day!:laugh:
Re: This is EXACTLY why I am glad the Ravens did not draft Vontaze Burfict.
Look at it this way. Would you rather have Tommy Streeter or Vontaze Burfict. If we had drafted Burfict instead of Streeter, would you be upset or happy?

Unless you're Tom Brady. Then you can drop-kick somebody in the nuts and no one cares.
