The "Coup de Gras" was when Jackson was injured in the Broncos game......an injury that was felt to be caused by Roman's decision to put in a backup TE to pass protect Jackson.

NFL Random Thought of the Day
- Thread starter Wolf
- Start date
He has gotten injured at the end of the yr for the last 2 yrs. Whoever trades for him, buyer beware. Age and injury go hand in hand for a tailback that plays QB.
Opiates and cocaine are well known to constipate users. At least that's what I've read on the internet (so I know it's true).

As positive as reports have been, I have tried to caution those thinking that Hamlin is back to pretty much normal. I've taken care of too many cardiac arrest/CPR patients to not know that these patients typically have long-term and often life-long issues with lung and cardiac and neurologic functions. Nevertheless, fortunately he is still "around" to even experience these issues.

Bills' Damar Hamlin faces 'lengthy recovery,' spokesman says

While Buffalo Bills safety Damar Hamlin has started making great strides in his recovery from cardiac arrest earlier this month, he still has a long way to go in his recovery, his family spokesman told ESPN on Thursday night.
In a statement, Hamlin's longtime friend and business partner, Jordon Rooney, said: "Despite being out of the hospital, Damar still has a lengthy recovery. Damar still requires oxygen and is having his heart monitored regularly. He has visited with the team a few times but he still gets winded very easily.

Of course that is his experience. I mean when the OC is also the QB...
Doc, you are well, a Doc, but I have read that after a period of time this is true. Now I didn't read the article just the headline. I have read the further you are away from the last concussion you are not any more concussion prone than someone else. I'm deferring to you. Is this not correct? Say if someone goes a year or two without one are they still more concussion prone than someone else?

What most don't understand is that there are subconcussions that do not give classic symptoms, yet can significantly contribute to the overall long-term prognosis of concussion effects on the brain. These subconcussions are especially extremely common in contact sports. They can occur when the player experiences repeated violent, yet seemingly innocuous jarring or shaking to the head..........without any direct trauma to the head/skull. In football, avoidance of these repeated subconcussive events is next to impossible. So once repeated formal concussions are diagnosed and said to be "healed," the brain is still at significant risk for future concussions and brain damage.

Here is a good basic up-to-date article for understanding the subject of concussions.

Joey Bosa fined for unsportsmanlike conduct, critcism of officials
Posted by Josh Alper on January 21, 2023, 4:19 PM EST
Chargers defensive end Joey Bosa‘s actions on and off the field last weekend have resulted in fines from the NFL.
Bosa was penalized for unsportsmanlike conduct twice during last Saturday’s loss to the Jaguars. The first flag came after he said something to an official and the second came when he threw his helmet to the ground because he felt officials missed penalties by Jaguars tackle Jawaan Taylor on a Christian Kirk touchdown. The Jaguars went for two after the penalty and got it, which helped set the stage for their game-winning field goa
A day after the game, Bosa went off on the game’s officials while speaking to reporters from the team’s facility.
The NFL fined Bosa a total $55,546 in response to all of his outbursts.

Neither of those guys can come close to doing what LJ can do, period. The mere fact LJ is most times the fastest guy on the field, he offsets whatever the defense is attempting to do from a scheme perspective. Is he perfect? No, but he outproduces expectations of what people tried to put on him. Bateman was playing well pre injury. Yet, everyone on this Texans board want the Texans to run the blood out the ball when the greatest run game ever hasn't made a championship game. That should tell people that this is a passing league for the most part. Running the ball is only the icing, not the cake.
Wait a minute. Didn’t you used to be on here advocating for BOB to implement this Ravens offense? Even when other posters mentioned that it’s not sustainable, Derrick is not the runner that LJ was and that style would lead to injuries?

Hamlin was snuck into the Bills stadium prior to the beginning of the game. That in itself was not a great idea regarding his health status. Watching the Bills lose was not the best therapy.

He signed a recent $104 million [$70 million guaranteed........with supposed $96 million, plus incentives.]extension running thru 2027.......... I smell a problem for the Bills in 2023. Will it be a repeat of his "displeasure" of the Vikings?

Leading the league in pass attempts while being last in rushing attempts is not what a defensive coach like Todd Bowles is looking for in an offense. Not even sure that Leftwich wanted that, but that's how it went with the GOAT.
So for you Cowboy fans who lurk around our Texans website don't feel too bad because the 49rs beat your team last night since
your team did have one major post season accomplishment this season - with the Wild-card win over Tampa you now have 4 P/O wins in the 21st century and therefor your team pulled even with the Houston Texans in that category.

I did because I thought it would give the Texans their best chance to win a SB. In fact I wanted them to draft another QB with the same style, so the transition would be easier when Derrick got hurt. They weren't ever going to win a championship with Derrick running a conventional offense.
Of course it wouldn't have hurt my feelings to see Derrick get hurt either.
Since Jerry Jones has owned the team the Cowboys owe more of their success to Mike Lynn, the Vikings GM who traded for Herschel, than Jones himself.
Yea but you are of course talking 20th century there friend which was a way back when the Cowboys were a serious NFL contender, now 3 years into the 3rd decade of the current century the Cowboys are just a shadow of their former selves, a very mediocre NFL team - "all hat and no cattle".

I'm with that from the qb. IMO, that is showing leadership and not having sour grapes. That's not to say he isn't disappointed, but he supporting his teammates.

My work is done. After all these years, you finally admit it. Now, wasn't that cathartic? I knew that all along and also include the WR target narrative as a setup expecting him to fail without his blankey.
Now that Derrick is one of the most hateful, despicable public figures in Houston history, you don't have to hide behind flimsy narratives. You can call him dumb and wish for him to get hurt without any complaints, pushbacks, posters defending him or bashing you. Doesn't it feel great?
Funny how your narrative doesn't include that Derrick had his best season AFTER HOPKINS was traded. Just as I predicted.
And yes, he's dumb.

Wow. I didn't know he was on the 49ers and even had 5 INTs this year. I liked Gipson and always thought that BOB mishandled him. He was hurt his last year here and then BOB played him in a meaningless week 17 game and he reinjured or aggravated the injury and couldn't play in the playoffs against the Chiefs.
Good for him.
LOL. You were hedging your bet. Anyway. Stats are for losers. He had his best season piling up garbage time stats in a 4-win season. I didn't think you were impressed with garbage time stats.

I'm not, just pointing out what I said was true.
If Jerod Mayo had thoughts of staying with the Patriots to replace Belichick or be the HC in waiting, he better watch his back. BOB is in the building.
I see the Patriots are getting ready for the tank.

My grandparents made it past 60, and my in-laws just celebrated 60. It's an amazing commitment, and even more remarkable in this day and age of instant gratification and selfish desires.
I just past 21 years with my wife, and we are in it for the long haul. God bless her! She's tolerated me this long and still seems to like me (sometimes
