Waiting for clever new plays? You mean like Andy Reid trickery? The Bills O scored allot of points this season. Very balanced and hard to defend IMO. Everyone eats in this Offense
-
Just watching highlights, good call.
-
Henry is tied the with legendary Jim Brown for sixth place on the NFL's list of all-time career rushing touchdown leaders with 106. Henry is four touchdowns shy of tying Walter Payton for fifth place.
-
Normally I would agree, Henry on the other hand might be the best RB that has ever played the game. Take King Henry out of the equation. Bills win I Billieve
-
1st and foremost Lamar Jackson and the Ravens want to get the ball into Derrick Henry's hands in open space IMO. Run or pass. To me spying Henry, spies Lamar in the process ; )
-
Milano can though, until Lamar crosses the line of scrimmage
-
Jackson is not the biggest problem.
-
It does show a strong interest by the Bears. I don't blame them.
-
I agree, here's the thing though, this kind of attention only makes you work even harder right? If Brady is considering a HC position, and how could he not. Joe Brady is still going to do everything in his power, and then some, to win a Championship. Brady is coaching for $$$$$$$ on the horizon.

Most NFL players are not afraid of injury IMO. Some take it to the next level like Tua or Damar Hamlin. Modern day Gladiators. This is part of the problem. I don't know what Romeo Doubs history is when it comes to concussions. Its very possible he has one and its not his 1st concussion. If two players collide head to head, both wearing the Guardin cap. The protection almost doubles. Something we have not seen in NFL live games.
-
Current NFL helmets are like cars without bumpers. Nicely done.
-
https://safetyairproducts.com/ This cushion catches people in free fall going 120 mph without sustaining a concussion. The collisons are also causing cumulative damage. You say tiny, fair enough, data tells us 10% to 20% reduction If both players colliding wear one. Most small test studies I've looked at showed cutting concussion numbers in half or better albeit small sample sizes.
-
Not in its entirety. How the current NFL helmet looks with the Guardian cap over it needs to be trimmed down. Or players won't wear it. By adding padding on the exterior its possible less is needed on the interior. (speculation) The technologies need to come together, helmet makers and maker of the Guardian cap IMO.
-
Common sense tells you the padded protection/energy absorption actually does what it was meant to at the point of impact. Not after two hard shelled exteriors collide. If you can't understand this then I'm wasting my time. https://www.sportsdestinations.com/sports/football/guardian-caps-youth-football-programs-expected-34222 Maybe this will help When you think about the way a concussion happens, it's because your brain is floating inside your skull, and when you get hit or you experience a whiplash, it bounces around inside your skull," added Mel Haupt, Park's athletic trainer. "So, if we can add something on top of it to absorb some of that force, less force is going to get transmitted through the helmet, through your skull, and then into your brain.”

You left a part out An adaptation by Bailey et al. examined head impact severity from two helmets colliding at various angles replicative of gameplay with various helmet model and soft-shell padding combinations [14]. They observed an average reduction in head impact severity by 9% compared to helmets not equipped with the Guardian Cap, and upwards of 20% when both helmets had a Guardian Cap [14]. From these early findings, it is important for researchers to consider both the helmet’s location of impact in addition to potential factors in gameplay scenarios that may influence the efficacy of soft-shell padding. https://academic.oup.com/acn/article-abstract/38/5/823/7199416?redirectedFrom=fulltext https://physicianresources.baptisthealth.net/news/nfl-s-new-guardian-caps-to-prevent-head-injuries-the-takeaways-for-the-athlete-in-all-of-us Myself personally, the Guardian cap and current top helmet makers need to come together and build a more trimmed down version. I'm not sure the same amount of interior protection is needed when more is provided on the exterior of the helmet. (speculation) Make it look good and not add extra weight players will wear it IMO.
-
Data would show they help more when everyone wears one. Further reducing the helmet to helmet impact. Maybe the game of football doesn't get new rule changes making it very hard for defenders to make a tackle because their fool head is in between two tackling arms. How many other kinds of injuries would it prevent? QB's hand or arm coming down on a helmet can cause injury. Guardian cap helps prevent this from happening. Nicely put red
-
Some players like Tua for instance are more vulnerable because of the cumulative damage already done. Something the Guardian cap also helps reduce and why I'm happy to see many football programs implementing the protection to its players at an early age.
-
Thanks for the explanation
-
Nervous energy is driving me nuts
-
By speaking the truth? How can we not recognize both QB's ? If there was ever a better time for co MVP's this is it IMO. Naturally my fav is Josh, but lamar Jackson is playing the best football of his career in the NFL.
-
How about breaking his hand on J K?
-
They say football is just a game, but when I read comments like the one you just replied to its obvious how much a football team can mean to a person. Or to a city like LA that could really use a glimmer of hope right about now. Go Rams!!!! May we meet again in the Superbowl!!! Go Bills!!!
-
Happy Birthday you mosquito sized ***** head!

Milano is back!!!

Been one of my favorite reads for years. The Bronco's have a very talented HC/ Offensive guru in Sean Payton. Won a championship. Knows how its done. Denver D that led the league in sacks. Franchise rookie albeit signal caller in Bo Nix. The kind of team you know just enough of to scare the dickens out of you . The Bronco's scared me. 10 to 7 at the half increased my anxiety. So I'm feeling you Bills fans live at the stadium. The Buffalo Bills on the other hand. Business as usual. Joe Brady comes back to school his once upon a time HC and boss. McD's D sends Payton and the Bronco's packing with only 7 points to show for itself. MERCY!!!! Thanks OP, much appreciated. Go Bills!!!!
