Did they suspend the Steeler who hit Bernard in the helmet? That hit was worse.

not sure. I think that rule is mainly in place to protect guys using the crown of their helmets to make tackles. In this case, the Steeler's player.

That was fast.

Packman Jones said Antonio Brown faked it since he is not in concussion protocol.

I kin dof wonder if he did accentuate it. Not that it really matters. It was flagged anyway. There was contact, it wasn't an ole flop.

If Burfict hit a steelers running back the way Bernard got hit, I guarantee they throw a flag.

I heard he was on concussion protocol

"Not looking good" for WR Antonio Brown to play Sunday vs. Denver due to his concussion, per @BobHoltzmanESPN. "Very likely" Ben plays.

You can't fake the way he fell.

good

need more suspensions

Not enough games. Beckham should have gotten 3 games also. Burfict is just bigger than Brown, But Beckham's hit was more viscious.

shazier hit on bernard was far worse
