That’s why the Bills, who employ Sean McDermott as their HC and Leslie Fraiser as their DC, both of who are known for their knowledge around the league as defensive back guru’s, signed Tre to a big contract. I’m glad you know more about d-backs than those two. Maybe some NFL team will pick you up for your obvious pro-scouting skills?

Dude, you have ***** issues.

Listen, I don’t blame you. I just wondered what you thought about being entertained by humans playing a sport that you wouldn’t let your child play. I like to play devil’s advocate.

I believe the two easiest solutions are play the Bills/Bengals game in 2 Sundays, pushing the playoff games back a week but keeping the SB date the same, or….. Not playing the Bills/Bengals game and allowing 8 teams into the AFC playoffs because teams are fighting for the top seed and fighting to get in. It wouldn’t be fair to teams with playoff aspirations to not make it because a game isn’t played. Also, nobody would get the top seed and no bye.

I was listening to Lavar Arrington this morning. They were discussing playoff scenarios in the AFC and how Miami could get in. The one guy said he expected the Patriots to win with what Buffalo is going through. Arrington disagreed and said he expects the Bills to dedicate the rest of the season to Damar and play their brains out. Of course Arrington doesn’t know for sure but he has played the game. Unfortunately, he may even have a little knowledge about tragedies and an NFL locker room. He played most of his career with the Redskins and Sean Taylor was murdered mid-season 2 years after Arrington left. I’m sure he probably had close ties with Taylor and players in that locker room.

Seriously, don’t comment then. You aren’t better than anybody on these forums because we are talking about football. We CAN talk about Damar and football and not feel guilty.

Good question.

I have no idea.

That’s what I gathered but wanted to know who this woman is and why a study about kids and their survivability rate has anything to do with Hamlin and his situation? Not only are children different than adults but Hamlin is a world class athlete that had world class medical attention rendered immediately.

I guess I’ll ask. Who is Lori Chase and does she have medical credentials? Sorry for being ignorant but I have no idea who she is. I take she is saying Damar has a 10% chance of surviving this?

No, because then the NFL will have 2 games to move. That won’t happen because the Super Bowl Date is locked in. And, yes, I do know the Bills will be playing the Patriots this week.

So, it’s OK to watch others play and put themselves at risk for your own entertainment? I take you enjoy watching football?

the Bills will be playing football against the Patriots. The NFL is a business and it’s not just about one team. There are many teams that will be laying it on the line this weekend in hopes of making the playoffs. Do you think the Dolphins, Steelers or Jaguars should go out onto the field and play a game of football and put themselves at risk of injury all the while the Bills don’t play and hand the Patriots a playoff spot? Should the Bengals forfeit to the Ravens and let the Ravens claim a division title because they most certainly were shook by this as well? Should they all cancel their games too after the blood, sweat and tears they put into this season going back to mini-camps? I guarantee you everyone in the NFL as well as fans of football are all pulling and praying for a Hamlin recovery. In the meantime, there will be games. And the Bills will be part of them.

The Bills are not going to skip, forfeit, stay at home with their families…yada yada this Sunday. They will be playing the New England Patriots. Now if you want to debate whether or not their heads will be in that game, that is a valid point for discussion.

I thought the crying buffalo helmet was for when Ralph Wilson died? Not that it matters.

You know, I get it. It’s something to discuss and then get on with it. At this point who cares? If you think the NFL errored what are you expecting them to do?

If that fat pig Hendrickson isn’t fined heavily there is something wrong.

I don’t want to come off as an ass but the Bills have no other choice but to play on Sunday.

Getting ready for work. Emotions flooding through me probably like most everyone here. We need to rally. That’s who we are. Rally around Damar. Rally around his teammates and everyone in our organization. pick each other up here the best we can. Let people talk. Support each other. Not bicker. Maybe talk like we our face to face. This is our team and one of our own. God bless Damar Hamlin, the Buffalo Bills and all of you guys and girls.

I’m sorry but I’m not going to argue with you and this will be my last post on this subject but the Bills will play again this year. Unfortunately, this is not unprecedented. Serious injuries and deaths have occurred in all sports and teams lace them back up. Loyola Marymount, NASCAR, the NFL, even the NHL.

That isn’t going to happen. They will be taking the field again.

I hate to bring up the prospect of playing this game but I think the obvious solution is to push the playoffs back a week, play this game in 2 weeks and lose the 2 week break between the Conference title games and the Super Bowl.

I’ve wanted to say a million things and even attempted to post a few but decided not to because they sound so damned dumb. All we can continue to do his pray and hope for good news.

I am sick to my stomach. I can’t imagine what his family and teammates are feeling.

Agreed but I would like to see him for another year or two at a reasonable salary.
