As expected by all when the season started, the Jaguars win and they’re in. 😐

Beane is undisputed NFL Executive of the Year, correct? (Would be his second in 3 years). Managing the countless moving pieces, player and staff emotional well being, and communicating as much as possible when appropriate, all with the entire world watching, with his standard of giving all credit to others, (sorry, lots of commas)… kudos to Brandon yet again.

No no. I wasn’t saying there would be. My bad. I was thinking about “the Bills finally win the SB so some other fan bases will put an asterisks on it because of the 16 vs 17 games.” i shouldn’t have even mentioned it. Give me a mulligan on that one?

Are we rooting for the Bengals just so we don’t have to hear that our SB comes with some sort of asterisk right?

Ok, that makes sense. Thanks for explaining that for me! 👍

Wait. I thought if two teams play who could have been the 1 seed would play at a neutral site? Why would we host the chiefs?

This was incredibly well written. Dolphins doctors are still examining his back injury.

Probably already been posted, but just in case.

I had the chances of what is happening today at exactly 0%. Couldn’t be more happy to be wrong. What a day! Go Bills, and more importantly Go Bills Medical staff.

Damn man! I wasn’t even going that far. I’m still confused by “what happens if the Bills lose Sunday?”

If any of the neurological tests include explaining the AFC playoff picture, I think they set the bar too high at UCMC. What amazing news to wake up to today. (I’m on the west coast, not just lazy).

Thanks!! My last one (the one that just passed) was named Missy at the pound. Not a bad name, I suppose, but it was the name of a close family friend (well Melissa, but everyone calls her Missy) so it was just weird to use that name. Her name ended up being Alabama (Bama for short). Nothing to do with “roll tide” or anything. My favorite movie is True Romance and the lead female character is named Alabama.

Thanks all for the awesome recommendations and just the cool discussion. Soooo. We needed up with a total 180 in the dog adoption area. While going through the different reduces/shelters we found a 2 year old male beagle named Doug (was originally from a puppy mill and that’s the name he had). We just got him yesterday! And here’s my wife’s GOAT moment. She said, and I quote: “We could make his middle name Allen for both Josh and then it’s Doug Allen, the dude that sang the national anthem that you liked.” (My wife is from Southern California and let’s just say hockey wasn’t her sport growing up). That, my friends, is marrying up.

Well this is really straightforward. But if someone could explain it like I’m 5 years old, as far as what week 18 means, that would be awesome.

Not sure if we can talk football yet, but the patriots are straight *****. I know I wouldn’t want to play against this team. Amazing news, all credit to the litany of medical staff on field and at UCMC.

“Who won the game?” Are you ***** kidding me with how much I love this team? Well boys, looks like we got our win. Adding a Lombardi would be nice but it’s never felt less important.

Appreciate all you praying types. Really.

“Is responsive” are words I never thought I’d hear this morning. I’m guessing there’s still a long road ahead, but that sounds like the best possible thing we could have heard today - doctors of TBD?

Anyone else just coming on here every hour or so, hitting refresh, and holding your breath for any news?

Well my god we need a temporary heart reaction emoji thing. ❤️

UCMC just clarified that what the uncle said is incorrect and he “only” needed to be resuscitated once on the field.

I am truly impressed with the number of medical professionals, those is the field of science, and other relevant experts we have on this board. Thank you all for your unique perspectives. (re-read this and it sounded sarcastic. It’s not, I really appreciate the knowledge sharing).

Not sure if already mentioned, but Robert Kraft donated $18,000 to his gofundme. Matt Stafford $12k, Russell Wilson $10k, Brady $10k, and the list goes on and on.

Well this seems like a bit of truly good news.

The lack of updates are frustrating but the only people who really have any right to know are his doctors and family. But it’s still tough. Huge heartfelt props to the city of Cincinnati, the team and coach, the medical staff who raced to try to save him, and the fans who had to be disappointed about a stupid game but all seemed to realize that’s what it is - a game. I think we’ve formally solidified an already present kinship between Buffalo and Cincinnati. I just keep thinking that as much as we watch these guys absolutely dominate athletically week after week, he is only 24 ***** years old. This was just a rambling post. That’s all I got right now.
