I still am not sure why the play he got hurt on was not a first down?
Diggs clearly does not step out and lunges beyond the marker?

He is having so much success from the pocket that it seems unnecessary. They are also probably keeping it off of film now and "saving it" for certain scenarios and games.

He’s making plays when asked, but let’s pump the brakes on his greatness. He’s wr4 and teams are more focused on stopping 1-3 so Davis should be open more. I haven’t done the rewind but I doubt he’s facing the top corners on some of these sets.
It’s a pleasant surprise and a fantastic way to groom a rookie so I hope people don’t take it as a negative. If/when the time comes that he’s needed in a bigger role and faces the top defenders he should be ready to roll. But jeudy and Jefferson are facing the starting corners and sometimes double coverages.It's not so much that he is getting open. To me, its the body control, hands, toe-drag, size, etc. We have not seen that for awhile here.

Officially time to call the Bills/Titans game Doubtful.

There are so many better podcasts/content creators out there in the Bills universe that unless you have hours a day to listen to Bills content I don't know why you would bother with this show.

Anyone got a link? PM me if you have one

I’m a physician. There is a difference between malpractice and a known complication. The physician can do everything correctly and a complication can still occur. Of course he/she could have also committed malpractice by not ensuring he was in the correct area or not paying attention to what he/she is doing. The consent does not absolve the physician of liability especially if they commit an error. Explaining potential complications to a patient is part of informed consent. It does not waive a patient’s rights.
We mark the surgical site before surgery to ensure the correct site is used when laterality is an issue. We have right and left knees, breasts, feet, eyes, lungs. It’s imperative to double check xrays and check with the patient before surgery. Many errors can occur solely relying on the physician order or notes where right and left can be mistakenly entered into the record. You can not tell the difference between a right and left knee on X-ray or MRI unless it is properly labeled.
When the outcome is a known complication, there is no way you can call that an "error." This poor physician is getting killed in the court of public opinion and is likely top notch and feels horrible.
If he gave him a cardiac tamponade, then you can talk to me about error. I am in a procedurally based specialty and this thread makes me cringe.

No laughing matter, a punctured lung can kill you. This guy should be stripped of his medical license.
Almost every single pulmonologist/anesthesiologist who regularly does thoracentesis or nerve blocks has likely had a pneumothorax. It just happens.
It is disheartening to see everyone immediately crucify the physician here.

It’s not naive at all. I work in insurance and watch work comp and malpractice all day long. Any lawyer worth $.10 will be able to talk through this. He was supposed to be starting a game for a NFL almost immediately after this. This isn’t one of those “are you sure you want to go through with this” situations. Was the doctor working on behalf of the player or the team? If they can link this to him losing his job and his future earnings because of that they are screwed. This one is pretty simple from that standpoint. It’s just a matter of where the number ends up.
It is exceptionally common for players to get nerve blocks, toradol injections, etc prior to games.
I disagree with your assertion that any lawyer gets a payout here if proper informed consent was obtained. Guess we will find out.

The good news for Tyrod is he’s about to be quite rich (not that he wasn’t already). It’s going to be interesting to watch this situation unfold from a liability and work comp standpoint.
Incredibly naive and one of the problems with healthcare. Complications and bad outcomes happen. It does not automatically mean a lawsuit is justified. A complication does not equal malpractice. I would guess this is an excellent and well-trained physician who feels horrible and is embarrassed that this happened and now has the world judging him/her.
Hopefully the Chargers followed all customary processes of informed consent, etc, or then in that case they could have a problem.

Why would you settle for less than you can get? I do think you are being very naive.
Tom Brady always was "underpaid" in New England to not crush the salary cap.

Being a team first guy in the nfl is really stupid. Like really stupid. Like if his play falls off or he gets hurt, what does being a team first guy get you? It’s a business, not high school sports.
I mean obviously if he continues at close to this level, he will get paid a ton. But it’s a long season and as others have said, these qb deals severely hurt your roster building. So play out the season and go from there.
I think after the deal that Ramsey signed a day after Tre, that Tre took a team-first deal. Is he stupid? Or is he still set for life and gave his team some flexibility.

Nobody is team first when there is $30-$40m on the line. At least I wouldn't be 😀
Maybe I am naive, but I just don't see josh throwing a fit over 28 vs 35 million a year or something like that. I bet he takes a team-friendly deal.

He is a team first guy, don't rush it. They will use the 5th year option and then extend.

I have had this for the last 4-5 seasons.
It always works better with better quality through an Apple TV, game console, etc rather than a computer browser

Bills should sign him, then IR him to stash. Could return in as soon as 3 weeks if one of our guys gets hurt. Would need to cut someone though to do it (yeldon to the PS?)
Im not sure you would be allowed to sign someone, pass a physical, and IR them before they even practice...

I don't think he is healthy.

The national narrative right now is that Singletary has fumbling problems, Allan is suspect, and Diggs won't be enough.
Finally time to see if it is all true!

You need to know someone who has an active college email address who isn't themselves an avid football fan because multiple people can't be using it at once, unlike Netflix or Amazon Prime or such...
Can you use that after you're already enrolled?
No I doubt it, it is a code you enter during checkout
