With what we are seeing here tonight, and plenty of other recent examples (Tua, AB) at some point everybody might need just to walk away.  These players are too big, too strong, and too fast.  With the type of hits that are happening now, this will only exponentially increase.

I don't enjoy watching people die.

I bet espn is regretting showing multiple angles of that play and the replay.  fug that was hard to watch after the fact

It looks bad enough on the NFL that they haven't already officially called this off. Feels like they're probably just scrambling with corporate sponsors and PR folks on how to handle this.

I don't normally say stuff like this, but Goodell should resign.

This is bullsh-t.

I honeslty dont know why they havent called the game.. but i doubt its money related. There may be legal matters attached to it that they are working through. 

I dont know how the NFL operates.... but with the networks saying what they are saying... i doubt the NFL is looking for a way to continue this game on tv tonight. If anything they are holding out so they can say "he is fine" on live tv. Which is doesnt look like they are going to get that opportunity.

Obviously this takes second seat to the health and well being of Hamlin, but we very well may be watching the straw that breaks the nfl’s back. The juggernaut has a weakness and it is on full display. 
 

Hopefully we get word that he is making a recovery soon.

Why is there such a long ass delay here???

Fans are still sitting in the stands and for what?

Do they SERIOUSLY EXPECT the game to resume?

They're just trying to figure out how to spin this from a PR perspective. They're probably on the phone with every major corporate sponsor.

This is a full-blown CYA effort right now and it's seriously tacky. All they gotta do is just come out and say that the game is postponed, an update will be provided at a later time and all thoughts are with Damar Hamlin and his family at this time.

    • Didn't  see this posted (since 2023) but since folks have been posting that you can't judge a draft class for three years (a ridiculous take), I thought I'd post this to see what people thought about the 2023 draft. Unfortunately this may not be the most interesting class to do this with but I do quite like retrospective draft grades. Would appreciate other's takes on this (and other recent) draft classes.   1(1) - Bryce Young QB: I am a bigger Bryce Young apologist than most (maybe all). I like the kid. But there is no way around it: This was a terrible pick. If he had been picked in the 4th or even the 3rd round I would feel pretty good about it. But this was the first overall pick that we gave up two firsts, our best offensive player to get.  GRADE: C -    2(39) - Jonathan Mingo WR: not much to say here here. He was here for two years. His yards per catch are on par with Bryce's yards per pass. Rough stuff. To date he has still never scored a touchdown in the NFL GRADE: F   3(80) - DJ Johnson OLB: a pick I hated as soon as it happened and an example of why the premise of this thread is honestly dumb. This was a bad pick when it happened. Most people knew it.  Then came training camp and he did not look good. Then came the preseason which confirmed what we saw in TC. Then came the season which confirmed what we saw in preseason. To date, he has half a sack in his career. GRADE: F 4 (114) Chandlers Zavala G: Honestly the best pick of this draft which really speaks to how awful this draft is. Other than Bryce, the only pick still on the team. He is mostly average or below average depth which in round 4 is not terrible. But he had a pff score of 43.5 and though I think people have unrealistic expectations for draft picks, I still would want a little more from a fourth round pick GRADE: C+   5 (145) - Jammie Robinson S: I liked the pick when it happened but ended up being a disappointment. He logged 1 tackle with the falcons last year and not enough snaps to get a grade on PFF.  GRADE: F OVERALL DRAFT GRADE: F
