I watched this 49ers clip again and it is the belief of the bandwagon the B did NOT go down on purpose! Now it is also clear that he wasn't looking forward to getting hit but he did not go down Pinkston style! That the only ammo they have against B and it doesn't hold up.

definite fall. You can clearly see his foot slip out from under him on the replay.

I see it this way. He did not want to get hit, but he slipped while diving for the first. In my view it is ok if a player protects himself as long as he gets to the marker.

It looked like he almost rolled his ankle on that but I bet b/c he's in such good shape he avoided injury. I would have been on crutches for 6 weeks.

Clearly he slipped.
I winced when I saw that ankle twist the way it did. Glad he didn't hurt himself - or else we may not have gotten him.

I concur. It is clear that he slipped. Pinkston, on the other hand, is a (*something reserved for Smack Talk*).
