  1. He exhibited symtpoms as soon as he started throwing the ball again.
  2. I agree. I still think it's pretty messed up what happened to Josh in the Green Bay game, and nobody officially said anything about it. That said, these things do happen on a spectrum, although even a minor concussion is not something to mess around with. If what happened to Tua had happened to Josh, especially the hit that sent Tua into a near seizure on the turf, I genuinely would not have felt great about him coming back at any point this year. Sure, it's easy to say that from a spectator standpoint discussing a hypothetical, but it's a hypothetical until it isn't. That's the kind of hit that takes years off of a man's life, and although I want a Super Bowl as badly as a Bills fan can want a Super Bowl, I'm still able to take a step back and say that it is not worth a person's life. We've been lucky thus far and I hope it stays that way. Every game is a gamble for these guys, and they know the stakes better than anyone, but still. It can't be easy to walk away when you have the pressure of an organization and millions of fans demanding your performance. It's sad to say, but it's almost in Tua's best interest for one more bad hit to happen that really, finally puts things into perspective and he reconsiders what he's doing.
  3. Yeah, I "only" had two that I was officially aware of. That was enough for me and I didn't go past high school. I knew I wasn't ever gonna go further than that, and having those cobwebs get worse each time wasn't worth it for me. That said, if I was getting paid millions upon millions of dollars, it's a different story.
  4. Dude is headed down a very, very dark road, even if we don't see it soon. Same with Morse, I fear. I very much hope that intensive research continues on CTE and developing treatments for it. I will honestly never forget him getting concussed like 5 days after we played the Phins, and he went into a fencing posture. These guys are paying a very, very fûcking high price.
  5. How big of a loss for Cinci is losing their RT?
  6. Maybe the Pats can pull off a comeback.
  7. He had a few really good ones this game.
  8. Bears just knocked out their own dude.
  9. Who’d have thought singletary would save the day.
  10. Shouldn’t be this close 😩
  11. Lmao this game isn’t over.
  12. Yeah they blew that punt dead way too soon.
  13. Fantastic drive, my god. Looked like a completely different team.
