Yeah it’s a logistical nightmare, but the integrity of the season feels bigger than worrying about logistics. Games could be set to any day that following week to accommodate stadium availability.

IMHO, I think the best option is to postpone all games this next weekend until the following weekend and only play the Bills vs Bengals game this weekend. Then the following week, all week 18 games would be played as normal. And the playoffs start one week later.

That’s just it though, I’m not arguing his opinion. I’m not even arguing any opinion. He isn’t even arguing an opinion, he just shared a possible cause based on what was known at that time. All I am saying is I don’t see the harm in medical experts sharing insights on possible explanations to what could have happened given the extreme circumstances and rarity of what we witnessed tonight. All good

Well sure looks like those doctors opinions are looking more and more likely given it was announced he did suffer cardiac arrest after sustaining the hit. So again, hating on the many doctors who came out and explained what this was and why it’s was a very plausible explanation of what happened seems not only off base, but unnecessary.

He was simply giving out a plausible cause. He was not making a definitive statement, and tons of doctors have echoed the same theory all over Twitter too and tons of comments from people who are in medical field all saying they felt this was very possible reason too. So sorry, don’t really see the harm in shedding some light on something that is a legitimate possibility to what might have happened.

Yes it’s real, his agent confirmed this information which was the source to this tweet.

Hard disagree. I think it is a good bit of information and I’ve seen many other doctors discuss this (with less detail and explanation) on Twitter as the most likely scenario too. Doesn’t mean it’s for sure what happened, but it’s unquestionably a real possibility and something most of us never knew was possible or heard of.

Some info/speculation of what might have happened to Hamlin.

Reports are out on Twitter from some reporters: He is intubated, has a pulse but not breathing on his own, and in critical condition.

Tonight doesn’t matter. Come playoff time, what happened in regular season won’t matter. Bills can lose this game and still reach the Super Bowl. This game will only decide where the games are played. We’ve already beaten KC in KC 2 of the last 3 games there. This is our first game against Cincy, so win or lose, we will have game film to analyze to adjust and be even better next time we see them. Even if we win this game, means nothing come playoff time. Cincy will have same film to work and make adjustments themselves.

So you dont want to face Chiefs, Bengals, Balt, or LAC? So youre basically afraid overall to just be in the playoffs since you pretty much named everyone that mattered in the playoffs lol.

Why do people keep saying this? Between last year, last years postseason and this years regular season, the Chiefs have played both the Bills and Bengals 3 times each for a total of 6 games. Chiefs are 1-5 in those games with the only win being a miracle thanks to a ST Coaches major blunder with 13 seconds left of not telling our kicker the play call. He now is the ST coach in Jax as punishment. How on Earth are the Chiefs the "Big Dogs" when they have one win in 6 games against the other 2 power houses in the AFC? And they should be 0-6 to be honest. They also lost to a bad Colts team this year, and almost lost to the Texans. Meanwhile, there is not an AFC team on the Bills schedule either in the playoffs or in the hunt that they haven't beaten. Our 3 losses are by a total of 8 points, and all of which were self inflicted or under extreme circumstances. All 3 had significant injuries playing a major part too. Chiefs are NOT the big dogs right now. Sure they can win it back come playoff time, but they aren't it now. Case for the big dog of the AFC starts on Monday, but won't be truly settled until we see who emerges in the Super Bowl.

Tampa had 3? I don’t know I would classify Godwin as a #1 WR personally, and he wasn’t being paid like one during that SB. Not sure who the third “#1” WR is. Godwin is a very good #2, but I don’t think he would thrive as the primary feature target. TB had one IMO in Evan’s, and then some good players around him and Brady at RB, WR, and TE. Robert Woods has never been a true #1 WR, so Rams didn’t have that either. I think you are mixing up having a good #2 WR with having two top #1 WRs like Miami has right now. Bengals do, but they didn’t win the SB. Kelce is obviously an elite player, but when it comes to signing a WR who is a true number 1, it’s going to cost more than a TE. We might sign someone, but it will be a complimentary player, not a top level #1 premiere free agent. Most likely we will draft someone instead.

How many Superbowls did Dolphins, Bengals, Chargers win? 2020-2021 Chiefs don't have dual #1 WR's...one is a TE which are cheaper than #1 WR's. No one is paying a TE $30M a season like Hill got. Go back and look at all the Superbowl winners of the past 25 years. Count how many of them had 2 top #1 WR's on them in their prime. You would have a hard case even saying 1 did. As someone quickly said...Fix the OL. Yes, we can use another WR in the draft, but absolutely not are we going to sign another top tier free agent WR for big money. We do not have that luxury. Miami, Cincy, and LAC can do it because they have QB's on rookie deals. And I don't know I would even say LAC has two #1 WR's, Mike Williams is overrated and overpaid. But they are paying him like one. KC had both Kelce and Hill when Mahomes was on his rookie deal, once his new deal kicked in they traded Hill rather than paying him the absurd contract he got.

Nothing that happened yesterday matters today is what I would say. "Streaks" are irrelevant, its a one game playoff every week come post season. Doesn't matter if you won 10 in a row or 1 in a row entering the playoffs, regular season is over and is irrelevant. Its not more difficult to win the SB coming off a win streak in the regular season...its still win or go home regardless.

He had a hot start when no one had any film on them and against mostly subpar to bad competition. Then they faded. Was it a good first year overall for Daboll…sure you can say he exceeded expectations still in terms of win-loss records. Has it been somewhat over exaggerated, yes it has. He has a lot to still prove. His team is playing its worst football at the most important time of year. I think the HC/GM combo in NY is still one to be optimistic about, but Daboll’s season is being a bit overrated given the level of competition most his wins came against.

I don’t see it. Wasn’t very hard of a hit, and he exhibited no signs of a concussion. This is just an excuse to try and mask over Tua again not playing well.

Zero percent chance in my opinion they go after Jacobs. Can’t afford to pay a RB what he will get, especially with major decisions at Safety and Edmunds contracts to go along with with rebuilding OL and adding another receiver too. You don’t pay a QB a quarter of a billion and then also pay to dollar for a RB, it’s a bad use of capital. Jacobs is a great player, but we can’t pursue him.

Funny, all the Tua is better than Allen talk is now the same people declaring Tua a fraud, choke artist, etc and demanding they move on. I mean all the talk was how the Dolphins had a moral victory playing Bills close this past week in the cold…now it’s time to draft a QB all of a sudden. Love it, nice Xmas present to see fins fans and the team melting down 😂 Some fun Xmas reading here ladies and gents…Merry Xmas https://finheaven.com/forums/miami-dolphins-forum.4/

MVP bid is over without a collapse by the others. He didn’t have a great game today and added 2 more bad INTs to his total against a bad defense.

Don’t forget Clay dropping the game winning TD wide open

It was absolutely the correct call, and it’s not even close. First off, everyone calling it icy are just incorrect. It was not icy conditions, it was fresh snow, big difference. And the snow can be brushed away, which it was. His footing there isn’t in any real jeopardy. Second, giving Dolphins ball back with 34 seconds and the best deep ball receiver in football is a lot riskier than kicking a FG from the 2 yard line. Statistically, the FG is absolutely the mathematically correct play. Always better to control the outcome of the game vs giving them their own shot to control the outcome. The odds we connect on the FG were better than the odds our defense doesn’t allow a TD. That makes it the correct play.

All reasons why Allen should be serious contender for MVP, unfortunately the people who vote don’t think about it enough like this.

You mean like the Von Miller contract? lol 😎 Its a big win right now, that is all that matters. Just like the huge deal we got Von was a big win. People can change their assesment at the time an injury occurs. Right now, its been a huge win for the Niners.
