The Josh Allen hit was a dirty play. It reminded me of the Vontaze Burfict hit on Antonio Brown.

(Burfict was ejected today for a horrible hit on Jack Doyle. I don't know why he is still allowed to play in the league.)

The Buccaneers are boat racing the Rams. The Rams can't stop them.

It’s a crazy league

Right now there are two constants:

1. Patrick Mahomes will knife you.
2. The Patriots will never die.

Dictionary definition of "targeting". Someone hits Brady like that they'll spend the afternoon on the sideline -- I would bet the farm on it.

Rams not done yet.

I forgot Jameis was liable to have at least one horrible INT.

(Marcus Peters just got laid out so hard by an offensive linemen.)

The Broncos are about to be 0-4 and they still owe Joe Flacco one billion dollars. John Elway has been a failure besides the time Peyton Manning rescued him.

I laughed.

Well, Denver on the move

Broncos leading now

Rams on the move

Rams lose. Damn, we should have beat them.

Now they’re done!

Jax to seal it now

Tampa put up 55 points on the rams

Minshew Madness about to continue.

It’ll be awkward when the Broncos have to can Elway.

Minshew’s legend continues

Now every QB on my fantasy team is hurt. Brees, Darnold now Allen

Fournette finished the day with 29 carries for 225 yards

The Bucs/Rams game was just nuts

The Bucs are the best bad team in the NFL. They really should have another win or two if they didn't keep shooting themselves in the foot.

Boys/Saints in a defensive struggle thus far

Adam Thielen is out there throwing Kirk Cousins straight under the bus.

Cousins is not worth his pay. But, credit to the DB on this particular play. Pushed Thielen OB before he could land his trailing foot (Unless I'm thinking of the completely wrong play), but Cousins blows.

j/c

Cousins is really struggling right now ... to have Thielen, Diggs, Cook, and those TE’s and to be that bad is pretty tough

Him and cousins haven’t seem to get along since cousins got there last year. They got into a huge argument last year on the sideline.

Yeah i forgot about that too

Scary hit. Hope it is fined.

Why is Burfict allowed to play? Has a track record of dirty hits. I don't want somebody crippled because of filthy play. Game suspensions without pay or forfeiting might help. I mean it would be good for owners. Just one of the worst offenders.

j/c:

Huge win for the Saints last night. They are 2 and 0 after losing Brees. That's huge! I like the Saints and I do not like the Cowboys and their obnoxious fans.

Hopefully, we won't see him play another game in the NFL.

If the league lets him play again this season, just throw out all the safety measures they've installed because the NFL simply doesn't care. IMO, he should never play again. He's the poster child for cheapshots. Get rid of this crap.

The hit on Josh Allen seemed to be an accident, or at least an attempt to hit the QB high but not planned well because he got his own head cranked to the side. He deserves a big fine, but it's his first hit like that.

I'm not holding my breath. He should have been banned 2-3 hits ago.

Same here... I'll predict a six game suspension.

Burfict suspended for rest of season for dirty hit
https://www.thescore.com/nfl/news/1845227

The NFL has suspended Oakland Raiders linebacker Vontaze Burfict for the rest of the season for the helmet-to-helmet hit that led to his ejection from Sunday's win over the Indianapolis Colts, the league announced Monday.

"There were no mitigating circumstances on this play," NFL vice president of football operations, Jon Runyan, said in a statement, per NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. "Your contact was unnecessary, flagrant, and should have been avoided ..."

"Following each of your previous rule violating, you were warned by me and each of the jointly appointed appeal officers that future violations would result in escalated accountability measures. However, you have continued to flagrantly abuse ruled designed to protest yourself and your opponents from unnecessary risk."

The veteran will appeal the ban, added Chris Mortensen of ESPN.

Burfict previously received four-game suspensions in 2016 and 2017 for late hits.

If Vontaze Burfict is suspended for rest of season, as @mortreport reports, it would be the longest suspension for an on-field act in NFL history.

Albert Haynesworth was suspended five games for kicking, then stomping on Cowboys’ C Andre Gurode’s face. Gurode needed 30 stitches.

In the second quarter against Indianapolis, Burfict lowered his helmet to initiate contact with tight end Jack Doyle, who was down on his knees after making a catch.

Burfict, a Raiders captain, had recorded 17 tackles through three weeks. He added another before being kicked out of the Week 4 contest.

While a member of the Cincinnati Bengals, the 29-year-old was also suspended for the first four games in 2018 for violating the performance-enhancing drugs policy.

He was a Raiders captain? SMH

Nobody deserves it more

Where were these rules when James Harrison played?

J/c

Who are we rooting for tonight?

The Bengals. I would love to see the Steelers 0-4 without their first round pick.
