I can’t imagine that small, thin amount of padding would protect much of anything unfortunately. I’ve seen those type of shirts at ***** and you can compress the padding with 2 fingers.

It’s important to note that you would have to ban nearly all sports. CTE has been seen in Football, Hockey, Soccer, Rugby, Baseball, Basketball, and MMA. You would essentially be removing sports from children's lives. Come on…. You didn’t really type that with a straight face

Sorry I missed it - what did Dawkins say?

Probably not, because this would BE the tiebreaker.

WOW. So they essentially pick a random Chiefs game and call it a no-contest. If it’s a Chiefs win, then Bills get 1 seed.

Saw this on another forum. What!? “Benjamin Allbright said on the radio that the NFL, as of now, is planning on not playing the Bills/Bengals game and will label it as “No Contest.” They’ll then use a random number generator to pick a random game on the Chiefs schedule, whatever game the random number generator lands on will be listed as “No Contest” and they’ll determine the seeding based on that.”

I’m on Saturday’s side. If Allen was writhing like that on the ground and Dawkins, Morse etc weren’t lighting up Thibidough i’d be pissed! I posted it yesterday but a mod locked it because of “misleading title” as I thought Foles had a seizure (really he was just writhing in pain). Instead of just correcting the title they locked it. .

I am a believer and will always profess that Jesus is my Lord & Savior. Prayer works and I continue to pray!

He had CTE too. The Hunt’s did as he requested and took care of his daughter. They started a trust fund for her.

I do understand how you feel though. It feels as if the season is over. But I don’t think it has to be.

“Off” doesn’t mean the team has been bad. ”Off” is a personal feeling. Things just haven’t felt “right” to me ever since that happened. But why? What would that accomplish? Youre right that it’s more than a game but none of the players are doctors or nurses. Playing doesn’t take away care from Hamlin. It doesn’t even take away attention from him, as each game can be dedicated to him.

I guess I don’t understand why it can’t be both? Why can’t we root for Damar’s health and improvement, while also going out and winning a Super Bowl for him? Why must it be either/or?

The season has felt “off” to me as soon as Hyde went down.

I was just looking at the Bills snap counts. I think it’s fair to say the coaches are sour on Elam. Elam has not played more than 40~% of the defensive snaps since October. The lowest of the healthy CB’s. He has played 0% of the snaps in two of the last four games (yesterday was only 2 defensive series so maybe he would have had some snaps later on). Thankfully, Benford is back practicing though we likely don’t see him until the playoffs as he rams back up to speed. Tre is averaging between 90-100% of snaps the last 3 games.

Tomlin is a great person by all accounts. I was listening to a former play - didn’t catch the name - and they said back in their playing days he BEGGED Tomlin to let him play after an injury. Even brought in doctors and so forth to convince Tomlin. After a bit, he kicked everyone out of the room except the player and told him “if you were my child, I wouldn’t let you play” and that was that. He cares about his players.

Thanks for posting this Yolo. Do we know if the medical team that helped Hamlin was Bills staff or a mix of Bills and stadium?

Thank you. I too found it right about the same time.

Powerful photo. Wish I could read the artists name in the top right. Edit; found it! Adam Zyglis. Buffalo News.

Well that’s a pretty big deal. Losing 2 of 12 defensive starters (when you’re already down 1, so really 3 defensive starters out) is a huge deal against a top tier defense. Comparing that to a healthy Pats defense with one of the greeters defensive coaches in history is odd to me.

He’s been covering the NFL as long as i’ve been on Twitter and was blue checkmarked before you could pay for it.

Well I never said that, so… ok. But yeah the Patriots didn’t lose 2 defensive starters before the end of the 1st quarter either. .

It wasn’t the score that made me think that. It was context. We we’re down 4, the Bengals we’re effortlessly driving again, and we were already down 2 defensive starters due to injury in the first 8 minutes. This wasn’t the Bears we were playing where we could easily come back. It’s an elite team.

It had the feeling of a game that we were about to be blown out in. Obviously things can change quickly but that’s the feeling I had when play stopped.

Last night made me a secondary Bengals fan. If the Bills don’t win it all, i’m rooting for the Bengals. That city deserves it.

No plan to play to resume the game at this time.
