But I didn't think it was thug'ish. They last targeting penalty was dirty but that's how Burfict has played all year. That's how Steve Atwater played, Ronnie Lott, John Lynch, etc.... They were head hunters. In context, it was a TERRIBLE play on his part. I'm not saying he's smart. But that's different entirely.
Absolutely, but whether any of us like it or not, the rules have changed. This isn't '84 anymore.

Hill fumbling trying to get extra yardage that was completely and utterly pointless, Burfict head hunting for no reason whatsoever, Pacman putting himself in that kind of compromising position at the worst possible time .... I mean, you really can't make this shit up.
