Bengals gave a ten yard cushion to every receiver on that 3rd and 5.

I have no idea how Antonio A) held on to that and B) isn’t dead on the ground right now.

This game makes me wonder if the refs should have discretion to issue warnings to the benches like you'd see in baseball - once in force, any unnecessary roughness, hit to the head, etc. is an automatic ejection. Seems like one way to help keep games from getting out of control...

I hear you, VE. You’re right. Do you remember how bad that hit Burfict put in Brown and there was another one in that game. Just saying Burfict has been a very dirty player.
I know. But as I said in my previous post, you still hate to see it and never want to encourage it.

This game is really disturbing. It’s good to see both announcers upset about it as well.

Here's where the Bengals go three and out, the Steelers get the ball back. march down the field and kick the game winning field goal as the game clock ticks down to double zero.

I'd just like to point out that when guys like Ordway were saying today that shit like what Gronk did (as far as seriousness and potential for injury) happens literally all the time in the NFL, this is exactly what he was talking about, and everyone was shouting him down. Maybe it doesn't happen after the whistle with a guy laying on the ground like with Gronk, but as far as dirty shit that could cause injury, it still happens all.the.time. Until the NFL at least adopts the college rules, or something like them, it'll never go away.

Now AJ is hearing footsteps. Why couldn't Brown hear footsteps?
