103 Tackles, 1 INT, 1 sack so far. Leads the league in tackles.


just caused a fumble and returned it for a TD, 8 tackles with 2 mins left in the first half. Dudes been tearing it up this year.

Burfict’s presence on field made a notable difference for the Bengals this season. When Burfict was on field, the Bengals defense allowed 2.4 yards fewer per play compared to when he was off the field.
Amazing stat from last year. 6.9 w/o and 4.5 with

175 plays he wasn't on the field - decent sample size

He just has that playmaker instinct you can't teach.

Theres a lot of guys with some claim to DPOTY and i wouldnt give anyone leader status

ETA noone should win an award based on a stat as biased as tackles

Player. Plain and simple, the man understands the way the game should be played.

injuries to key players have also forced him to elevate his play, the burfict storm if you will.

But but but he ran a 5.0 40 yard dash as the Combine.

People overhype the Combine. Burfict is a stud and plays fast.

He didn't get drafted because he's a legit crazy person, in addition to the poor combine.
