Kelce & Hill on Burfict
We know what some of the Steelers think of Bengals linebacker Vontaze Burfict. But, even knowing Burfict served a three-game suspension to start last season after a hit on Chiefs fullback Anthony Sherman, two of Kansas City’s biggest playmakers call themselves fans of Burfict.
“You’ve got to be aware on the football field at all times,” Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce said Friday, via Lynn Worthy of the Kansas City Star. “I mean, it’s grown men with pads and a reckless abandon. I don’t think this week is any different. I know five-five [Burfict’s jersey number] personally. I don’t think he’s out for anybody right now. I think it’s just the way he plays the game. You know what I mean? Either you’ve got a guy like that on your team or you don’t.” Between fines and suspensions, Burfict has lost more than $4 million in his seven NFL seasons. Kelce, though, defended Burfict as just a “very physical football player” who doesn’t seem to have “hate” for other players. While Andy Reid wouldn’t comment on Burfict this week after Burfict threw an elbow at Steelers receiver Antonio Brown‘s head, Chiefs receiver Tyreek Hill said he would take Burfict as a teammate any day. “I love him as a player,” Hill said. “I feel like if I was a D-coordinator and I had to choose like any linebacker in the NFL, I would definitely choose him because he’s definitely that hard-nosed solid tackler just dirty and grimy linebacker that I like.” https://profootballtalk.nbcsports.co...ry/rumor-mill/ |

At this point, Kelce and Hill are probably just amazed at anyone who can actually tackle and play defense.

And its a good thing. The NFL can still be entertaining without people having life altering injuries. We don't need to see a LB come in late and use all of his force to hit a defenseless receivers head. This aint Rome. We don't need blood to be entertained.

The new rules cost us a sack and 4 points in NE. But, they are going to protect something more valuable than that the negative side of one loss, our golden ticket to finally get us a Super Bowl win.

The new rules didn't cost us anything...if you remember right there was defesive holding on the play that would have given them a first down at the 1 yard line. I hate cheapshot artists Burfict / Sue..and others. They try and level the playing field by taking out key players. Dude has no place in this league anymore. Get him out!

He ran a 5.09 40, but I think it was his issue with getting PF’s on the field and some issues off-field at Arizona State that scared off GM’s more than his 40

Absolutely this, I don't give a shit what he pulled at the combine, what his 40 time was, or how much he could bench, his college highlights looked like they were taken from from the movie The Waterboy, he was a man amongst boys in college and definitely worth a 5-7th.
