These two insane retards just literally ended the Bengals season.

They gave the game away to the Steelers and are about to be loving pilloried by everybody, so get in on the action.

If you didn't watch, on a downfield pass Vontaze Burflict head hunted Antonio Brown over the middle to put them into field goal range, then Pacman got ANOTHER personal foul to make it a chip shot.

The Bengals aren't even in this game if it weren't for Burfict, it was his to give away imo

What a loving dumbass. You run into a bunch of refs to throw a lovely punch at a guy between two of the refs' earholes and don't expect to get flagged?

I'm not seeing anything resembling a punch or an attempt at a punch

Check the link that was just posted.

And take off your Bengals colored glasses.

Don't give a poo poo about the Bengals, but yeah I see it now. I'm not sure the refs could have even seen what was going on though, the one guy just seems to pull the flag the second he feels somebody touch his back and probably say mean words

The Bengals really have no reason to hang their heads, I genuinely wish I rooted for a team that cared enough to play like a bunch of psychopaths like that.

Still gotta say though when there wasn't a penalty on that Shazier hit and Tomlin just threw the flag like he didn't give a poo poo and seeing Shazier celebrate was probably one of the most disgusting things I have ever seen.

I don't think Tomlin has an obligation to show the Bengals mercy on that play because of bad officiating. They would have done the same if the shoe was on the other foot.

Also, when the refs fail to control the game, unfair and imbalanced calls always seem to happen. I hope the NFL tightens the leash before the divisional round

Alternatively, unfair and imbalanced calls are the only way to control a game. If you call offsetting penalites whenever two guys start beating the poo poo out of each other it doesn't serve as much of a disincentive.

What do you mean? I kinda grasp your point, but need further illumination, please

I'm saying that there's a stronger disincentive against escalating conflict or retaliating when each team has to worry about the possibility that they're going to be "unfairly" get the brunt of the punishment. If things are going to get called in a way such that they predictably balance out, then what reason do they have not to just act like maniacs?

The NFL probably needs to get a lot less bashful about ejecting players, that will get some of them to work on their decision making pretty quick. The NCAA's targeting rule is stupid, but only because it doesn't allow for any subjectivity. The heart of it, that ejection is by far a more effective deterrent than anything else, is sound.

I guess this isn't breaking news or anything, but Pacman comes off as authentically mentally ill.
