Bengals S George Iloka won his appeal and will not be suspended, per source.
 
WTF is going on? His was worse that Juju's, he left his feet and targeted ABs head.

They'll deny Ju Ju. Burfict went out on a cart (although jumped off at the locker room) and they'll maintain his hit was a H2H (NOT) plus taunting.
Bullshit, Free Ju Ju!
 
Again this is why the nfl is bullshit when it comes to suspensions... you can see george targeting brown high all game.. it was a pattern and intentional... only certain teams get penalized to appease the owners... and even then bitching a lot can get you reduced unless you are a player or team on goodell's hit list... how many times has Burfict gotten a slide?
 
I think JuJu should re appeal due to this ruling. He'd have a better case now to not serve a 1 game suspension.

The sad thing is, if AB was taken off the field on a stretcher, Iloka wouldn't be playing this week. So now the league is more about what happens after the illegal hit as opposed to stopping the dangerous play that can lead to terrible injuries. This is madness...
 
Who cares, Bungholes suck *** with or without that punk and the Steelers ONCE AGAIN wrecked their season and sent their whiny fan base in to another meltdown. To see Burfict get KTFO by JuJu made my entire season.
 
I didn't think he should have been suspended in the first place (juju either). I don't recall seeing him leave his feet launching high, though, nor have I watched the replay.
 
matter of fact --- look at the ******* URL the NFL used for the hit.
 
Unreal...just ******* unreal. Stan said they had different people hear the appeals...apparently we got John Gruden to hear JuJu's case.
 
I don't think either were deserving of a suspension, but JuJu was trying to make a block and use the same exact technique a couple of plays later with no flag. Iloka lead with the crown of the helmet to Brown's head. Easily a worse hit and a play that they do not want in football.
 
iloka was headhunting, that ************ should be suspended. OTOH Juju beat that retard on the chest.

I'm pretty sure he can, if he gets a lawyer and the NFLPA involved.

But if they stretch it out and still loses he could be out for a playoff game. We need all of the healthy horses we can get.

I'll tell you my play, if I was a GM.

Tie this thing up legally for 2 weeks, then drop the appeal and serve the suspension week 16 or 17 vs HOU or CLE. That is what the PATS do.
