I don’t like bye weeks. The Bills seem to come out rusty each time.

I think they shouldn’t give anyone home field advantage this year. Just randomly draw where the games will be for all playoff teams. As for wild-card bye week, I don’t think it really matters if the Bills play this game or not.

There’s was a very nice tribute to Damar tonight at the Caps game.

Was discussing with wife. We’re both physicians and this is what we think as well . One moment talking to teammates and the next, on the ground. Aortic rupture/dissection is likely - something caused blood from reaching the brain quickly. V fib from a hit to chest wouldn’t have been delayed.

This is classic Cincinnati. I lived there for 3 years and never met a better group of people. I love the city and it’s people.

They’ll throw him around like a rag doll again. It’s really not the players fault, but I imagine someone is going to get the distinction of ending this guy’s career, perhaps in an ugly way.

But do they? The Dolphins already have shown even this doesn’t cut it. So, I’m not going to rely on them to pick up subtle clues.

Josh always does much better in Prime Time games. Like clockwork.

How STUPID can people be? I’m pretty damn sure that what he would’ve made on any bet is small beans compared to his salary.

I’m curious. Does this happen with Chief’s fans? Do they nitpick (maybe deservedly) all the negatives of their team and worry incessantly? I’m not sure, maybe other elite teams have no obvious issues.

How in hell did we lose to this team?

I’ll give him the benefit of the doubt. He should get the ball.

What about the 39th Alternatives?

It’s probably not the most intelligent thing do, but it’s respectable. I give him props.

This game is a good argument for flexing all games, including TNF and MNF.

I’m really not sure what a “shoulder sprain” is other than a diagnosis of exclusion. Sounds like something that shouldn’t be a problem, until it is. This is his throwing arm and any injury to his rotator cuff could get ugly fast. They should shelve him until the playoffs.

Draft a center and let him cut his teeth playing guard a couple years.

Agree. Firing would nullify the draft pick we would otherwise get from having him hired while a Bills employee.

That box has already been checked, multiple times, but still no substantial changes. https://www.usatoday.com/story/sports/nfl/2022/07/12/marion-barbers-death-what-we-know-dangers-heatstroke/10036028002/

He had an undiagnosed rib injury. A negative x-ray by no means an absence of a rib fracture. So, you have to go by function. Is a player able to perform in an absence of analgesics? Miller’s ACL wasn’t seen on the most sensitive imaging we have, yet still had an ACL tear. No one was going to inject that knee with toradol, pat him on the butt, and send him back in. Now, if a player has a known injury and it’s determined that playing through discomfort won’t affect the long-term prognosis, then inject away. You don’t do this clinically unclear injuries though.

Well, this is the issue. It should be a big red flag if a player requires a toradol injection for an undiagnosed injury mid-game in order to perform.

Does this really mean Ertz isn’t coming?

Decision making! Lol. Only against the Bills I guess.

Someone tweet that to Lewis.

Agreed. Wade deserves a chance for more snaps.
