The report right before the Hamlin play happened was he was being evaluated for a head injury and his return was questionable.

There is no rule change that can prevent what happened...it was just a freak occurrence...a hit that occurred in the exact location needed at the right time with enough force to cause that issue...I don't see anything they can do short of potentially requiring some protection for that area in the jersey/padding, etc...

Still haven't eaten since it happened and feel like I want to vomit when I think about food...

I know it doesn't replace live training, but this would be better than nothing and free. https://www.aedcpr.com/free-classes/

And if they did, how could you blame them?

Did not realize this happened to Chris Pronger in the NHL as well.. As fate would have it, I have my yearly checkup with my Cardiologist today and am damn sure going to talk to him about what happened last night. His players and staff would follow that man to the end of the earth, through a wall and probably off a cliff. I don't even play for them and I know I would. Some people just have that "it" factor as a leader...he definitely has that.

They remember #BillsMafia with Dalton/Boyd charity contributions...much respect to them.

Just weary man...it's been a tough 365 days in Buffalo. When does the avalanche stop?

39 blizzard deaths.

I learned CPR a long long time ago in college but I only partially remember. Thinking about going to get recertified.

New found respect for the Bengals.

My thoughts as well...this could reverberate through the entire NFL, CFL, college and high school ranks.

I don't think there is anyone who knows what is or isn't going to happen at this point. And if they do, what players decide they can't play anymore this year.

Same way a baseball game isn't official until a certain number of innings is played, pretty sure the NFL would not consider the score after 1 drive to be meaningful. But at the end of the day. I could care less about what happens with that. The only concern at this point is that Hamlin is OK.

I would not be surprised if the Bills are done playing this year. Nobody cares about that right now.

I think it's fans across the NFL. I saw posts on the Cincy forums to donate to his charity

Agree. I don't even care about football right now. I wouldn't care if the Bills don't take the field again this year. I can't believe I just typed that but it's the truth.

Wow...charity is almost at 1.5 million now...praying Damar makes it through to be able to put this to good use.

I thought I'd be so happy to be done with 2022 and get into 2023...I was wrong.
