  1. We make teams abandon the run early.
  2. I was going to say that the time has passed to sell him high. However, we’ve seen some teams do some crazy/dumb things when it comes to QBs. Some will think “it’ll be different” on their team and maybe so. My guess is he gets something along the lines the Texans got for Watson and that was a crazy haul.
  3. Due to this very reason, it will mean very little even someone were to break this record now.
  4. Pose this question after the KC game.
  5. You guys see that play where their QB “faked” confusion on a touchdown run? I’m not sold that was actually acting.
  6. Based on the NFL’s definition of “ataxia”, which btw is correct, Tua still wouldn’t have been pulled out of the Bills game. Per NFL, ataxia has to be secondary to a neurological problem, which everyone on the Dolphins denied and said the imbalance was due to a “back problem”. One thing can definitely learn, based on the response, is that Tua did indeed had a concussion. I’m not as concerned they didn’t examine his back. That was not their job, which was to determine if he had a concussion or not. Regardless of what was going on with his back, even if there was a positive exam finding, Tua still could’ve been diagnosed with a concussion. That is, I don’t think concussion is a diagnosis of exclusion.
  7. If Hyde is any indication, he didn’t like what he heard from his initial evaluation. I would imagine, he didn’t get good news.
  8. Iirc, the independent UNC does not make the decision whether a player can return to the game. That’s up to the team trainers. So, I don’t know exactly how he failed.
  9. I think he’s mostly a product of the system and coaching makes him looks semi-good. I think we could probably get equal play from a would-be cheaper option. Considering Hyde is going to be a big question mark going forward, I’d rather give the money to Poyer. He’s a game changer. I’ve never seen Edmunds as a game changer.
  10. Yes, very high. The tippy top of the ankle.
  11. Pulled? More like how long he lasts before leaving the game.
  12. Maybe his mind was on Saturn and he couldn’t tell the difference between his back and head.
  13. It’s no sweat to him. He wasn’t doing it for the money (his day job takes care of this), but rather for weekly sideline tickets.
  14. Agreed. I think is fans actually like Allen as a person as much as his performance. None of us would want to see him pulled a Tua. I don’t know how Miami fans view Tua, but it just seems like “get up, dude, and play”
  15. Wow. You see the comments? Didn’t age well. At all.
  16. This is true. But Tua is also an adult. It’s his responsibility to be truthful with the medical staff, assuming Miami coaching staff didn’t fully make up the “back” or “ankle” being hurt. It came from somewhere. That said, it’s up to the coaching staff to know when he’s not being fully truthful. The whole thing should be thoroughly investigated. Disgusted this all has been risked for a game.
  17. Lil Dirty not going out of bounds on the final play.
  18. With a herniated cervical disc, it looks that we may be faced with another Eichel situation. A small portion of the with self-reabsorb after a period of rest. The other cases will require definitive surgery. However, I don’t see this becoming an artificial disc vs fusion debate. Football is too violent of a sport. So, how have players done after cervical spinal fusion? This is a little dated, but a good starting point. https://www.shimspine.com/cervical-fusions-nfl/
  19. I think there’s a non-zero chance we see him in some action next Sunday, or at least as a reserve. These types of a diagnoses (ie neck) usually have a way of leaking out and we’ve yet to hear anything.
  20. I’m fine with the suspension, as long as they give a game suspension to the player who shoved Dane while he laid on the ground screaming.
  21. Ertz
  22. Fantastic news. At this point, nothing a good massage can’t fix.
