Kubiak down

[tiger7_88]

I know this thread will probably be moved, but Houston head coach Gary Kubiak collapsed walking off the field at the end of the 1st half.

 

They said he was conscious, but the sideline reporter (Michelle Tafoya) said it seemed to her like he was in great pain because he never opened his eyes (though he was talking).

 

NFL head coaches are driving themselves to ruination health-wise it seems.  Hope Kubiak is OK.

Scary moment there, I'm sure he's being rushed to a hospital.  I hope he is okay.

 

 

[tiger7_88]

Yep, just loaded him into the ambulance.

[PhillyB]

he's coherent and talking to medics.

 

fwiw that was my exact reaction to the lafell fumble today

Is it bad of me to laugh at that poo?  :lol:

It's a rough business with hectic work schedules for both Coaches and players.  Hope Kubiak is ok.

It was said his eyes were clenched he was in so much pain. NBC sugar coating it. It's only precautionary in the eyes of Kubiak but that is a scary scene. Mid 50s with a high stress job. Case Keenum beating up on the Colts gave him a heart attack.

nah i wouldn't have made the joke if they hadn't announced that kubiak was alert and responsive and was being taken to the hospital for simple precautionary measures

I think it's a heart attack. Crazy. So much more than football going on right now.

[carolina-chuck]

Hope it's nothing major.

Well, in all honesty, he has been under a lot of pressure because of the QB issues.

[BIGH2001]

He's an nfl coach - he's always under a lot of pressure.

These guys work 18 hr days 5 or 6 days a week and have hundreds of thousands or millions of people watching their every move and critiquing it when they screw up. I'm surprised we don't see more of this in the coaching ranks honestly. College coaching isn't any easier or less demanding

They said he was taken to the hospital as a precaution and he is fine....this is crazy 1st Foxy then this

You could see the pain in his face.  That is not your normal passing out.  It looked like someone having a heart attack but I guess we will find out soon enough.  If there was a positive, it would be that it happened while he was seconds from medical personnel.
