He made a football move and became a running back Brooks.. Clean hit as Bernard ducked down into the helmet hit.. If he would has stood straight it would have been a chest hit... Not the defensive players fault IMO.. Booth thought it was clean too..
watch it again buddy
all he did was turn around at that point.

they were wrong. There's a difference between accidentally hitting helmet to helmet on a runner as opposed to the tackler leading with the crown of his helmet. No?

time for people to spin this whatever way they want. The NFL needs to start putting championship belts on players and make the games ppv. you could see from a mile away that this outcome was going to end at pitt winning by 2. Everything else you see during the game is just pointless.

Cincy fans are assholes and disgusting.
Throwing bottles onto the field and cheering when Big Ben was carted off.
I am glad these assholes lost.
Yes I took Pitt ML.

Agree, except consider the context.
You have to be a special kind of stupid to draw 30 yards in personal foul penalties to set up a game-winning field goal vs. a QB that literally can't throw.
Oh I completely agree with you. Completely stupid. With the game on the line they let their emotions get the best of them. Boneheaded players.
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.

Does anybody know if a penalty should have been called on Pitt for Joey Porter coming in the middle of the field? Pacman goes over and pushed him but why was Joey Porter at midfield?

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.

To be honest, I had Pitt -1.5. But at one point, I stopped caring about my bet. Fans disgusted me. No class. Bengals players out of control. Dirty hit on Brown. Karma is a bitch. That shitty city and players didn't deserve to win.

Burfict asked several questions. Answers almost all of them, "I don't know". What a piece of garbage.

Absolutely correct. Could've been called but there was no intent to blatantly injure Gio.

Why are folks complaining? The line was Steelers -2.5. Steelers were always going to win and Bengals would cover the spread. Forget all the drama. The players knew what they were doing. The team owners, players, coaches, and sportsbooks all work as a team!
Can't wait for the next drama.

You're dreaming. Where do you see him ducking? And the booth doesnt review penalties. Lets see if he gets fined. Pitt headhunts just as bad as Cincy. Cincy just isnt beloved by the NFL like Pitt.

Earlier in the game a Pitt WR caught the ball turns around completely LOWERS his shoulder resulting in the Cincy defender hitting him in the head.
That was called
Yet somehow the hit on Bernard was not called
Cincinnati behaved like crap. They totally showed that Lewis doesn't have any control BUT the hit on Bernard dhould have been called and that is where things started getting out of control.

Amen to that! Will also probably cost Lewis his job... This should be the last straw after all the brutal playoff meltdowns put him on the hot seat.

In the 80's, this would've been considered a normal game and not a peep would have been said about any of it
Pussification continues
Both teams demonstrated a complete lack of discipline. This was everything sports is NOT supposed to represent. The league's fining department will be working overtime this week. If players mingled on the field after the game, you would have needed the National Guard to maintain some semblance of order.
