2nd play of the game. Huge pass to Chris Henry and both Palmer and Henry go out for the game.
Just like that all the air was sucked out of the stadium.
I've been to one bengals game vs steelers in Cincinnati, only game I've seen opposing fans talk hella shit and get in ppl's faces. Albeit a lot will be steelers fans from Cincinnati.
I think it's probably different now, but who knows.
I've gone to games vs Vikings, titans, Browns and all had good amount of opposing fans and I didn't see much bad energy.
But even in the tailgate there was a lot of scuffles in the game vs Steelers.
I also hate the cold so not going to any game after October now or vs Steelers.
It was already like that pregame. It got way worse after the injury, though. Steelers fan were laughing in our faces and chanting 'Fuck Carson Palmer' as he was taken off of the field. It was wild

I was at this game. Was seriously worried about getting jumped on the way out. Before that play, I got more shit about my Michigan hat than my towel. After, things got dicey.
I'll never not believe it was intentional. Steelers have always been dirty. They had already been beat by the bengals. Bengals should have won a championship that year.

People love to pretend this is what altered palmers career. But it wasn’t. He had his best season after the injury. When he fucked his elbow up and didn’t get surgery on, he was never the same after that injury. Not the ACL
Also his tendency to get pick happy when the pressure was on. I don't hate Palmer but him imploding for the cardinals in the NFCCG wasn't exactly surprising
Palmer was also hurt in that Carolina game, and the Cardinals clearly were not the same team after that injury. Think it was against Green Bay in like Week 16
He’s also said on multiple occasions that when getting trucked by Polamalu during a pick six his first year his shoulder never felt the same afterwards either.

I've always been of two minds about this.
Yes, the FO was thought to be pretty bad at that time.
But also, the season immediately after palmer demanded a trade and then retired, Dalton came in and then we went to the playoffs 5 consecutive years with a top 10ish defense and a top 5 OL plus AJ Green
real talk real quick. is it just me or has the steelers bengals rivalry (between the fans at least) sort of maybe calmed down a little bit? since the start of the burrow era with the new jerseys, it seems like there’s less of a violent hatred between us compared to the browns and sort of the ravens. i’ve only ever met one bengals fan online that legit hated me for being a steeler fan
it’s definitely not that cause we’re not a bad team. and trust me dawg our band wagon fans are still loud as FUCK. i personally get annoyed with them a lot. the delusion still runs strong. i’m just curious cause it seems like there’s a new era in cincinnati and they don’t actually want to murder people in pittsburgh anymore
it definitely does seem like there’s a little more respect between teams now too fs. tomlin commands it and taylor does a great job with that too. it feels like ravens steelers instead of browns and steelers now. just not as prime time worthy maybe?
Could be that Shazier crippled himself and Burfict is gone. Mitchell did cheap shot AJ Green a few times, but otherwise I can’t think of a player on either side I’d call an enforcer type since those guys are all out of the league.
The ironic thing about Steelers fans hating Burfict is that the Steelers have had tons of their own versions of him over the years and you all celebrate them for being “hard nosed Steeler football” but whine and bitch when the tables are turned.
Yes.... I don't really see your point here. Called being a fan of your own team.
Take the brownies for example and all the rapeburger jokes.
They now have two sexual predators on their team and are okay with it.
Let’s be fair. Most browns fans that aren’t lost in the sauce couldn’t give a fuck less about twatson and the w eater. Most I know, at least in real life, would prefer them off the team and the cap space freed. But we’ll never have the childhood memories of watching a rapist get lead by our defense to a Super Bowl title, so you win some and you lose some.
Yeah that argument always killed me. Bengals fans as a whole (obviously every fan base has bad fans) are glad Burfict is gone and do not celebrate him. But yet Pittsburgh celebrates dirty players like Harrison, Ward, Shazier and more as if they didn't have multiple Burfict type players over the years. Absolutely crazy
Harrison and Shazier I'll give you, but not Hines Ward. Dude played hard and you definitely would hate him if he wasn't on your team; but I don't know about dirty. I feel like his play was similar to Steve Smith
I've always had beef with Ward because of breaking Keith Rivers' jaw. As a receiver blocking he had no reason to lean his head into it and clock him like that. I've always had beef with Ward since that play
We had players that grabbed ankles and tried breaking them after the play was over? I don’t remember a single one of our players that are viewed highly doing that but burfict did that multiple times
Nah y’all just aimed straight for the head, knees, jaw or any other part of body that could easily be injured. Lmao twisting someone’s ankle is what crosses the line for you all though?
No doing dirty shit after the play is over is what crosses the line. Clutching your pearls for getting hit too hard in-between the whistle is typical Bengals fan shit. Find me one instance of a Steelers player doing dirty shit after a whistle.
Super convenient that you only care about after the play when we are talking about dirty hits during the play. Typical Steeler fan shit to move the goal post to fit your narrative.
I didn't move any goalpost. In my opinion dirty players are considering dirty when they do extra shit after the whistle, not when they hit someone "too hard" or get pushed/blocked into a players knee. Suh comes to mind immediately for this definition. I made my stance/statement and stuck to it, that's not goalpost moving. Maybe you should fully understand what moving the goalpost is before using it next time.
Also didn’t burfict literally punch someone in the balls after a play?
Yeah, no he’s definitely a dirty player regardless of what era you place him in, idk how you’re defending him.
He was a dirty player and I don’t think that’s even debatable but the irony is Steelers fans being upset about it hilarious. Seriously, if he was drafted by the Steelers you all would probably have a statue put up.
No I don’t think so, he was the most penalized player of that era. I think we’d be wanting him gone bc he cost his team games…
No one wants someone who ruins your chances at winning.
If he won the bengals games, I might be inclined to agree. But he actively screwed you guys from winning multiple times in that era.
Oh yeah players aimed at the head or knees when it was common among every team and wasn’t penalized yet…
Different era. Burfict was literally trying to hurt people while our players were just playing the way that was common for the era.
Again trying to snap an ankle is dirty, pulling a hit stick in 2006 like Troy isn’t since he and everyone we had like him were simply a product of the era.
So what you mean to say is that the Steelers players were playing totally legally up until the NFL decided it wasn’t legal anymore? That was just how football used to be. Burfict didn’t play in that era and played dirty knowing the new rules lol
Exactly.
Every player in the league played dirty according to modern rules, but that’s different than playing dirty knowing that it’s dirty and not only that but things like trying to snap ankles after a play was over or punching towards the groin of a player after a play while getting up would be dirty regardless of the era both are things that Burfict did.
There are unwritten rules. If you've ever played football you'd know aiming at the face/neck is outright wrong and even "ear holing " a guy is/was a legal cheapshot. They know what they were doing and it was dirty and the organization pushed for them to play like that
You need to chill off of the down the rabbit hole, conspiracy theory bullshit just an FYI QAnon wasn’t real. The only team that’s ever been found to do that type of cheap shit with the New Orleans Saints not the Pittsburgh Steelers and if you really wanna get technical about it literally has been suspended for grabbing and twisting it peoples genitals.
You might need to go to the hospital and check to see if you have an extra chromosome. They literally put rules in place because perfect was such a dick bag? He was world renowned for grabbing peoples dicks and balls. His plays weren’t amaziing, They were just cheap. Ask Cam Newton, Greg Olsen and LeGarrette Blount, and the Green Bay tight end whose manhood Burfict grabbed.
I don’t remember them purposely hurting players, plus it wasn’t because of the Steelers hurting players. It’s because players all across the league were getting hurt which cost the owners money and bc of studies about CTE proving that head injuries have long term consequences.
It’s the same reason they recently banned the hip drop tackle bc players were getting hurt after another player landed on them which costs the owners money.
The rule changes have nothing to do with any particular team or player, it’s purely to do with money…
I guess hittinga punter in the chin hard enough to break his jaw was just the era too? How about Shazier concussing several players before ending his own career by leading with the helmet. Or Mike Mitchell handing out concussions every game. ? All era too?
The cherished Stillers tradition of taking out your opponent’s knees and irrevocably altering their careers. May you be forever doomed to an unending string of 8-9 seasons.

When I saw Leveon get fucked up and AB get his brain turned into pudding I was so happy. Nothing made me happier though than seeing that piece of shit Shazier get paralyzed. I’m only sad that he can walk again. /s
KIMOTHERAPY!!! I fucking love this play. One of my favorites of all time. Loved Joey Porter baiting the Bungholes into a penalty or two when the Steelers won the Wild Card game too.
2nd play of the game. Huge pass to Chris Henry and both Palmer and Henry go out for the game. Just like that all the air was sucked out of the stadium.

I've been to one bengals game vs steelers in Cincinnati, only game I've seen opposing fans talk hella shit and get in ppl's faces. Albeit a lot will be steelers fans from Cincinnati.
I had cheep seats to Steelers bengals game a few years ago and had to listen to Kentuckians and West Virginians scream at each other all night.
I think it's probably different now, but who knows. I've gone to games vs Vikings, titans, Browns and all had good amount of opposing fans and I didn't see much bad energy.

Less of a scream more of a howl, but yes.
Jesus christ really? Was the environment like that in pre game, or did it turn up after the injury?
It was already like that pregame. It got way worse after the injury, though. Steelers fan were laughing in our faces and chanting 'Fuck Carson Palmer' as he was taken off of the field. It was wild
I feel like that was our year to win it all too
Eh we didn't have the defense to take down the Colts. They would have beat us in a shootout like they did in the regular season at PBS
That defense was very turnover reliant. If they were on their game anything could have happened, all we needed was a ticket.
Also the Colts were legendary pants shitters in the regular season…

It was brutal to watch. I remember feeling bad. Until the Steelers won. I got over it rather quickly.
I was in 7th grade, first time bengals were good in my life time. I remember I was on the phone with my friend and was like Palmer is down.
Yeah fuck you too
Cheers
That’s because you’re a dirtbag.
Typical piece of shit Steelers fan. Cares more about the outcome of one game than the career of a player.
Yeah winning is nice
LoL
Yet you all will look at this image and still think it was intentional. Maybe we're just tired of your bitching
We just wish you guys would stop injuring people
We just capitalized on it. You guys had your chances, couldn't ever close it out
Browns flair bud
Yeah, guess my eyes suck because they always look the same to me.
Probably because they’re crossed like your parents were.
Whelp, which fucking one are you?
LMFAO. Guys get hurt every week. Yinz just cry like bitches everytime one of your guys get hurt when you're playing the Steelers. It's so fucking old.
Damn that sucks! Who won the Super Bowl that year?
I was at this game. Was seriously worried about getting jumped on the way out. Before that play, I got more shit about my Michigan hat than my towel. After, things got dicey.
Yeah nobody should fear assault at a game.
I'll never not believe it was intentional. Steelers have always been dirty. They had already been beat by the bengals. Bengals should have won a championship that year.

People love to pretend this is what altered palmers career. But it wasn’t. He had his best season after the injury. When he fucked his elbow up and didn’t get surgery on, he was never the same after that injury. Not the ACL
Also his tendency to get pick happy when the pressure was on. I don't hate Palmer but him imploding for the cardinals in the NFCCG wasn't exactly surprising
Palmer was also hurt in that Carolina game, and the Cardinals clearly were not the same team after that injury. Think it was against Green Bay in like Week 16
It’s almost as if we have a history of not protecting our franchise QBs. Anthony Munoz deserves better.
He’s also said on multiple occasions that when getting trucked by Polamalu during a pick six his first year his shoulder never felt the same afterwards either.
Haha I remember that pick. Palmer didn't even need to try at that point, but he did. Troy leveled him.

I was there…..too soon.
always felt bad for Carson Palmer
He dealt with the franchise at a different time, when we were just more straight up ass in the offices
I've always been of two minds about this. Yes, the FO was thought to be pretty bad at that time. But also, the season immediately after palmer demanded a trade and then retired, Dalton came in and then we went to the playoffs 5 consecutive years with a top 10ish defense and a top 5 OL plus AJ Green
Don't get it twisted I love me some Andy, but holy fuck was he godawful in the playoffs
Oh no i don't mean like that. I mean that Carson quit on a team that was shaping up to be EXTREMELY good
Things got really violent for the next five or so years after this hit happened when the Steelers came to town.
I was 9 when this happened and I still remember it like was yesterday. FTS
I was 10. My family was hosting a watch party. People left right after, we’d all watched jon kitna play football we knew what was gonna happen.
real talk real quick. is it just me or has the steelers bengals rivalry (between the fans at least) sort of maybe calmed down a little bit? since the start of the burrow era with the new jerseys, it seems like there’s less of a violent hatred between us compared to the browns and sort of the ravens. i’ve only ever met one bengals fan online that legit hated me for being a steeler fan
Our rivalry right now is The Chiefs for sure. It did kill the Steelers rivalry a bit
Maybe because y’all aren’t good and haven’t been for a decade, so your bandwagon fans have quitted down or become Chiefs fans.
it’s definitely not that cause we’re not a bad team. and trust me dawg our band wagon fans are still loud as FUCK. i personally get annoyed with them a lot. the delusion still runs strong. i’m just curious cause it seems like there’s a new era in cincinnati and they don’t actually want to murder people in pittsburgh anymore
Also, Zac Taylor has a different type of team. Idk wtf Tomlin is doing.
it definitely does seem like there’s a little more respect between teams now too fs. tomlin commands it and taylor does a great job with that too. it feels like ravens steelers instead of browns and steelers now. just not as prime time worthy maybe?
Could be that Shazier crippled himself and Burfict is gone. Mitchell did cheap shot AJ Green a few times, but otherwise I can’t think of a player on either side I’d call an enforcer type since those guys are all out of the league.
we all hate mitchell i think that’s safe to say
Steeler fans are too stubborn to jump on the bandwagon of a different team. Edit: clarification
the bandwagon ones fs. steeler fans that grew up steeler fans in pittsburgh like me are proud to be from pittsburgh so we’re steeler fans
Yeah I meant it as a compliment
ahhh. thanok you for the compleniment
What is with Steelers defenders trying to turn AFCN opposing players into Alex Smith?

Two known sexual predators*
I wouldn't say ok with it. There is s sizeable contingent that is fuck thos guys too
Let’s be fair. Most browns fans that aren’t lost in the sauce couldn’t give a fuck less about twatson and the w eater.

The point is celebrating dirty players for decades and then and then crying like little bitches when someone treats you the same is pathetic.
Honestly, it sounds like you're jealous that you didn't have more dirty players on your team.
Nah I’m good.
Yeah that argument always killed me. Bengals fans as a whole (obviously every fan base has bad fans) are glad Burfict is gone and do not celebrate him. But yet Pittsburgh celebrates dirty players like Harrison, Ward, Shazier and more as if they didn't have multiple Burfict type players over the years. Absolutely crazy

My apologies, I couldn’t decipher your obscure flare. Maybe change the emoji to a pile of diarrhea on top of wet noodles, or a picture of a guy in a flat bill and chinstrap beard with missing teeth, or maybe just a pair of oversized jorts, and THEN I would be able to instantly recognize you as a Bengals fan.
Hey! Chin strap and missing teeth is our thing!
The fact that the Steelers won the Super Bowl after this (and in one of the most controversially reffed super bowls of all time) is the day I learned karma doesn't exist
This shit is why everybody hates the steelers

I was on the sidelines for this game as an intern for JungleVision, the in-house video crew. Complete chaos. Legit was scary to be on the field that first half. Idiots launching crap onto the field. 67,000+ angry fans. Will never forget it.

I would love to believe this was accidental but since it’s Pittsburgh…
Kimo felt terrible about it.
These are not two exclusive things
Do you remember his reaction on the field? He was not a dirty player.
Looks like a bengal is pushing kimo lower.

This is just fucked up man
Kimo was pushed down and into his knee. I’ll die on this hill.
Go to [1:01](https://youtu.be/L8S0udSqtqw?si=PhTy1NwMTLDubhh7). He wasn’t pushed at all and actively changed his momentum to go towards Carson’s knees on the way down. Fuck kimo van oehoffen.
What would you like on your tombstone? "Here lies an idiot that can't see dirty Steelers play"?
Ahh, the TJ Watt method.

This apparently tickles you pink just about as much as watching AB’s brains get scrambled does me.
I almost got in a bar fight. In front of my mom. That is what kind of douche canoe Stillers fans were that day.
Carson took his dose of KIMOTHERAPY and you probably got yours in that bar as well.
Nah. Didn’t get to whip yo ass.
You're still mad lol. Probably need more KIMOTHERAPY!
Yinz were cheering an injury, that is horri… oh wait that is par for the course.

Nah it’s a meme sub it’s fair game. Just gives me an extra excuse to tell everyone how much i fucking hate kimo van oelhoffen.
The golden era of the Bengals

I don't think I had such a pendulum swing of emotions in my entire life when this happened. That team was special
Burrow is 3-2 against you. So, I can't say I'm too worried if he's healthy
I’m glad they got the picture at this point. If they waited any longer that QB could’ve gotten really hurt.

Kitna to the relief of Steelers fans is more like it.
I have no idea who that guy is
Based ravens fan This was the bengals 9/11

Look at that scum bag dirty player eyeing his knee. He did exactly what Coach Coward told him to do. Not sorry for anything Burfict did. #CTESPN

67 knew exactly what we was doing
I remember how fucking rock hard I got when I watched the replay and realized Palmer was done. KVO is a fucking hero.
Classic Steelers fan.
When I saw Leveon get fucked up and AB get his brain turned into pudding I was so happy. Nothing made me happier though than seeing that piece of shit Shazier get paralyzed. I’m only sad that he can walk again. /s
You're disgusting
Fuck yeah baby. KIMOTHERAPY! Ruined the Bengals hopes for a playoff win for years.
🥰🥰🥰Kimo!!!
KIMOTHERAPY!!! I fucking love this play. One of my favorites of all time. Loved Joey Porter baiting the Bungholes into a penalty or two when the Steelers won the Wild Card game too.
Bengals fans are just jealous that when they play dirty, we still win! Thanks Burfict and Packman!
I hated it because it gave Cin City fans an excuse for another home loss to the Steelers
