Resuming the game would be problematic. After another weekend of football coming up, surely there will be new injuries that impact availability, and some previously injured players may now be available. To a lesser extent, new weather conditions will play a role on the game. And resuming the previous game after the subsequent game has been played just feels odd. I wonder if anything like that has been done before. Maybe baseball? Then there is the emotional considerations. How can you ask these players to return to the field at the exact point where the hit took place with the same down and time on the clock. That’s PTSD waiting to happen. I don’t have the answers, but I think resumption doesn’t work. I’d probably cancel and seed spots 1, 2 and 3 based on win %.

Next home game will be very emotional

KC timing kind of makes sense. If we win Monday, odds are pretty high that we’ll be the #1 seed but would need to play with our starters (assuming KC wins Saturday, a high probability). And if we lose, we should probably play at the same time as the bengals as we’d still be in the race for the #2 seed.

Broncos done

I’ve never paid attention - do west coast games ever get the early slot? Makes sense that we would be paired with KC and Cincy time slots (Cincy only if Monday doesn’t go our way).

Disgraceful hit.

Poor guy. That sucks. You can probably blame Miami for not identifying that first one and letting him play and getting the second. If this is indeed true, probably best for his long term health to shut it down this season and see how he fares after a full off season. Sadly those predictions of a ruined career may prove correct, but best bet is to shut down now and see how next year goes. I’m no fins fan, but feel sorry for the kid. Was even becoming a descent rivalry again.

I checked early in the year and it was closed. I know in the past they have run events in there.

My concern is injury, especially for those recovering or nursing injuries. I’d be quick to pull or limit snaps for some.

On the cold side in Detroit but not much snow…

Thanks for sharing, it’s hilarious and worth the full listen!

I would DQ the thread from any record due to topic drift. I’m a spoil sport and a purist.

And that dumb ass play right before almost lost it!

If I were OBJ, I’d probably lean to Dallas as my #1, but it would be very close. Cowboys just seem a little more well rounded, we have a big drop off on offense after Josh and Diggs. But our D kicks ass.

Yea, look at my history. I’ve never come on with anything stupid. I subscribed to his twitch channel earlier today and he started breaking down the play he got hurt and talked about it for a bit, then continued on to play call of duty for awhile and I dropped off. That’s what these guys do to fill their time I guess. I’m mid 50s so this is a bit beyond me - streaming your games live. But it’s a thing with the millennials and so on.

He’s on twitch again playing call of duty. I heard him say the limited treatment he’s already had has helped and he’s hoping it’s 1-2 games and then he’ll give it a try. So no reason to believe the gloom and doom just yet, we’ll see. It’s give it a try vs good to go, so he really doesn’t know the season outlook.

Friggin Detroit turf!

I dealt with them for another event earlier this week and their response time on questions was brutal. And they close their phone lines at 11. That’s not bad for us, but if you bought a west coast event and have an issue you’re screwed. And they don’t answer questions directly either - they say we have a guarantee we’ll stand behind. I bought seats to a sold out event and the seller wasn’t delivering the ticket. Meanwhile more seats were made available thru Ticketmaster and I couldn’t get a direct reply on whether they’d refund or buy me a similar replacement … so I couldn’t just buy a new ticket from Ticketmaster. I don’t like them at all. I’d either make all free or all paid. If there’s a bunch of free ones Stubhub will be flooded with cheap seats and then people who paid at todays onsale will feel dumb. I won’t be happy if I pay a couple hundred a seat and then similar seats are on Stubhub for $20. But what can you do, they are doing the best they can on a short window and also want to make sure they get some asses in the seats. Im wondering if it’s reserved or general admission of some sort. Hoping reserved, just seems calmer and more organized.

I wonder which side of the field the bills will claim. Normally I’d assume the lions side, but McDermott seems to like consistency. Since they play again Thursday it wouldn’t surprise me if the bills setup on the visitor side. Curious as i prefer sitting on the bills side so I’d hope to know before I buy my tickets.

But it was free that time and an extra day notice. We’ll see.

I had one for a knee injury and he wanted me on crutches for a couple days to let it work.

If he’s out two, I’d guess it’s 3. Doesn’t seem worth rushing back for lions on a short week. If he skips lions, then next up are Pats on a Thursday.

Probably needs a couple days to see if it’s just swollen and settling with treatment, or genuinely injured and needs time to heal. That’s probably why they are delaying saying anything, they just don’t know.

If you were a vet who already had ‘generational money’, is there any other team you’d rather play for if chasing a ring (or another in this case)?

Still can’t believe it! So awesome!
