Hate to see guys get well, and I hope they fully recover. But let's be honest, Burfict and Shazier were both among the dirtiest players in the league. I've seen both of them deliver intentional hits with potential career-ending implications. So when people argue "karma"--a theory to which I don't subscribe--it's tough to argue. Nevertheless, I hope they recover and can live normal lives.

I didn't have any problem with that block. Reverse angle clearly shows that Smith-Schuster lead with his right shoulder, put it right in the middle of Burflict's chest and then the side of Smith-Schuster's helmet hit the facemask of Burflict. Actually looking at the GIF in Boris' post, it sure looks like it was the back-half of Smith-Schuster's helmet that hit Burflict in the head. And Burflict was definitely in range of being able to make a play on the ball-carrier. Maybe they could call it a launch, but Burflict is a pretty big dude and it does appear that Smith-Schuster's feet were either on the ground or barely off the ground right when contact was made, obviously he is going to lower himself for contact since he is the smaller man in this equation.
I would agree with a 15 yard penalty for taunting after the play.
If people want to talk about a dirty play, look at the Gronkowski/White play and the cheap shot on Adams earlier in the year.
good point, Fandame.
Agree. Talk about a video to show what not to do when tackling...
Confirmed. Sucks..
MRI showed that Eaglesâ QB and NFL MVP candidate Carson Wentz did tear his ACL. Wentz is our for season.

Nick Foles time.
Whoa. Best team Philadelphia has had in years and years, and then this. Bummer.
City of MSP already planning parade.
That sucks. Wentz was a pleasure to watch this year. He was developing into a true super star and quickly becoming one of my favorite non-Packers. Hopefully he recovers from this.
And just like that, the NFC seems wide open. All the more reason to hope that Rodgers can return this week.
The Vikings may be in the best position with a likely bye, but I still think that if Kamara is healthy, the Saints are probably the best.
Pedersen defiant. "We overcame a pro bowl left tackle, middle linebacker, running back, core special teams player, kicker, etc.... this is no different ".
Also said in his PC that "went and got Nick Foles for a reason"
On having a backup QB with experience, ..."its huge ....if you dont have a backup QB that's had snaps in this league, its tough to continue the things you've built this season".
Good Luck Eagles. Big Blow.
Sometimes I feel the need to shower after watching the NFL. WTF

Is that a quote from one of his posts on x4?
The #49ers are signing WR Max McCaffrey off the #Packers practice squad, source said. Joins one of his dad Edâs old teams.

Steelers release James Harrison.
Hes meeting with the Patriots today. Such a Bill B move and it might actually work out.
Let the Brain Drain commence.
Steelers actually have new tape that Bill hasn't digested yet.
Harrison can help him out.
Steelers didn't need Harrison. TJ Watt is tearing up the league.
I wonder if TT should've drafted Watt instead of Biegel ? Anyone have any thoughts on that? 
(ducking)
Yeah, surprised that debate hasn't come up before...
Dom would have f***ed TJ Watt up.
Watt got his ass tore up by Houston's LT (#77).

Hart, a seventh-round pick out of Florida State in 2015, told NJ Advance Media before the season started that he was "the best right tackle in the league." His waiving was first reported by NorthJersey.com.

Seattle Seahawks head coach Pete Carroll indicated Tuesday, Jan. 2, that S Kam Chancellor (neck) will have 'a hard time playing football again' based the neck injury he suffered this season, although Carroll suggested it will ultimately be up to Chancellor if he decides he wants to return to the field.
Damn, hate to see that prognosis for any player, but Kam is/was one of the best safeties in the game.
Petey said the same thing about Cliff Avril's neck injury too.
Add in Sherman's torn achilles and that may spell the end of the Legion of Boom.
Snap, Crackle, Pop.
Hope Kam makes the right decision for his future. Like Collins did.
There have already been articles written about the end of the LOB. Father time always wins. We'll see if Schneider can rebuild it. Kam's had a good run. Good time to get out.
