No offence taken. I'm referring to fans not players. This goes to knowing football. It was very obvious immediately what went down.

What I will say is that it was handled properly. Obvious penalty was called, and the player was forced to go through the full protocol to be cleared. Bush league? Yes. Anything more than a situation that arose and was properly addressed? No. Edited December 23, 2019 by thebandit27 1

No. since 1/2 the board is telling me the game didn't even matter, and the Bills really didn't try their best, and a large proportion screaming that Edelman is the worst person ever.... this will be a fun 2 weeks...

Because he's an idiot that has had to many head injuries in the past and lacks the common sense to think of the potential consequences of his actions. Edelman has missed two games in his career do to concussions. It was the same one that caused him to miss the two games. His head injury status is fairly clean.

I was really using sarcasm to state how much of an a-hole he is vs giving a factual basis of his number of head injuries. Sorry. my sarcasm part of the brain is not fully functioning today and I didn't type that out well enough to make it clear. Of course those 2 games are only reported concussions. I wouldn't be surprised if he and many other players have had unreported concussions. 1
Jerry Jabber Posted December 23, 2019 Posted December 23, 2019 Speaking of faking injuries, what Edelman did is nothing compared to the gross exaggeration of injuries by soccer players.

Concussions go with the territory. He's had 4 grade 1's that we know about, The SB one, the one that caused him to miss two games and two that he passed protocol and returned to the game. 1

Beast Posted December 23, 2019 Posted December 23, 2019 I have no problem with him faking an injury to draw a penalty. Still, I hate the guy. 1
C.Biscuit97 Posted December 23, 2019 Posted December 23, 2019 He is easily one of the most hateable guys in the nfl. The epitome of little man syndrome and a proven cheater. We would love him if he was a Bill though. but given the climate of football, this should be taken very seriously. Head injuries aren’t to be joked about. 25 minutes ago, Binghamton Beast said: I have no problem with him faking an injury to draw a penalty. Still, I hate the guy. Completely disagree. It’s why I can never get into soccer fully and it’s creep into basketball. Football players are supposed to be warriors. I don’t want the BS in football especially faking something as serious as a head injury. 1

Xwnyer Posted December 23, 2019 Posted December 23, 2019 I.look,forward to the day that someone just levels this,POS take the 15 yard penalty but make sure it’s a big hit

stevestojan Posted December 23, 2019 Posted December 23, 2019 Oh come on. It was hilarious. If Tre White did that, we’d be having a parade for him. He screwed himself by having to go to the locker room for a bit, but this hating the Pats just because we can’t beat them is silly.

But threads like this are like the virgins in high school hating the pretty girls because they won’t talk to them. And yes, the Pats are pretty girls. let’s just beat them for ***** once.
