@"Skodin" said: did you watch it? that is a horrendous callI wasn't going to comment until other peeps watched it. But yes I did.
looked like it was intentional to me. tried to make it look like an accident.
I thought he was ejected for contact with an official, not for the late hit.
A play or two before, Burfict was called for a personal foul...
personally thought THAT was a chickenshit call...didn't look like he touched anyone out of bounds, but camera angle tough to know for sure.
Plays later...Conklin of the Titans shoves Burfict away from Mariota after the play on the sideline...so Burfict starts to go after Conklin..the 80 year old referee, tries to put his arm between the two onto Burficts chest...and Brufict elbows the refs arm away which draws the second PF flag.
rule book states you can't touch an official...despite the fact the official attempting to intervene.
Thought the referee was overzealous personally, but because it was his second PF...he was tossed. Don't get me wrong...I think Burfict is a POS, but referees have had worse instances of "touching" breaking up scuffles WITHOUT pulling out their hankies.
least that's what I thought went down.
call was crap. now i feel bad for defending burfict
