Perhaps he and AB can carpool to the local sports bar to watch the NFL games throughout the rest of the season; after all, AB knows what it's like to be concussed by a Burfict cheap shot.

Hes a definite cheap shot artist and I have no respect for him. It just seemed odd to get an 11 game suspension. Was it because it was ,Burfict or was helmet to helmet being looked at like that.

NFL statement
NFL vice president of football operations Jon Runyan's wrote a letter to Burfict explaining the decision.

"There were no mitigating circumstances on this play," it said. "Your contact was unnecessary, flagrant and should have been avoided. For your actions, you were penalized and disqualified from the game. Following each of your previous rule violations, you were warned by me and each of the jointly-appointed officers that future violations would result in escalated accountability measures. However, you have continued to flagrantly abuse rules designated to protect yourself and your opponents from unnecessary risk."

Agree with every word.
