(not justifying it just saying it was in the normal flow of the play.. not an obvious head hunt like that)I mean doyle was DOWN! All he needed to do was touch him. Not apologizing... I don’t think Jones had intent I think he was just trying stop him from making the first down.. doesn’t change it from being an illegal hit. Burfict is just a thug. I agree. Ya Butfict has consistently done this throughout his career , he's definitely a thug out there and dangerous. I definitely agree about the difference in the 2 hits. Allen was upright, one score game on 3rd down , I can understand why Jones came in that aggressive but still hate it. He should have been ejected for the game. Burfict needs to be suspended for weeks Edited September 30, 2019 by JerseyBills
H2o Posted September 30, 2019 Posted September 30, 2019 This is probably it for him. Hope he has managed his $$$ well.
Brand J Posted September 30, 2019 Posted September 30, 2019 The hit alone wasn’t worthy of a season suspension, but with his reputation and his response to being thrown out the game (smiling and blowing kisses), he dug his own grave.
Real McClappy Posted September 30, 2019 Posted September 30, 2019 (edited) That was a nasty hit! I figured 3-4 games was coming. I guess the NFL isn't messing around with these hits unless your the Pats. Edited September 30, 2019 by Real McCoy 1
K-9 Posted September 30, 2019 Posted September 30, 2019 Well, that’s worrisome because now he will have far more time to be in the general public on a daily basis.
Happy Posted September 30, 2019 Posted September 30, 2019 1 hour ago, PatsFanNH said: Question.. (because I honestly don’t know) isn’t it normal for first offenses just be fines? Unless it is like that Berfict hit which was painful just to watch.. I wish they had a system in place like PEDs.. 1st offense X 2nd offense Y.. etc... Not sure. I know the NFL is supposedly trying to get the type of hit that Josh took, out of the game all together. At the least, I would have thought Jones got ejected and would receive a fine from the NFL this week. Looks like neither happened, or will happen. Hard to take the NFL seriously when penalties are not applied evenly...regardless of who the player and team are. 1
wppete Posted September 30, 2019 Posted September 30, 2019 Vontaez Burfict gets suspended for the season and Patriots DB gets zero games suspension. ? 2

Doc Posted September 30, 2019 Posted September 30, 2019 If he were a Cheater, he'd be back after 2 games missed...
Bangarang Posted September 30, 2019 Posted September 30, 2019 Death, taxes, and Burfict doing some dirty stuff on the field.

TigerJ Posted September 30, 2019 Posted September 30, 2019 2 hours ago, PatsFanNH said: The two hits are not even close to similar IMO. I expect a fine for Jones and a long suspension for Burfict a repeat offender In retrospect, you're right, obviously, about Burfict. That hit was far more egregious. Whether Jones gets fined is still up in the air. I'm not sure that will happen (and that uncertainty has little to do with the hit itself.
dous21 Posted September 30, 2019 Posted September 30, 2019 (edited) LMAO and the patriots player didn't even get an ejection WARNING. this league is ***** ***** joke. its really Buffalo vs the world. Edited September 30, 2019 by dous21

Generally, yes, last I knew the roughness penalties were a standardized amount in the last CBA with annual escalators for that amount, with flexibility to go higher for more egregious offenses, more intense repetition of offenses, etc... but out of the gate for basic situations it was (and believe still is) negotiated consistent terms 1
