Carr benched, so the Raiders can see what they have in Jarrett Stidham.............BWAHAHAHHHHAAAAAAA!! Stop it, slime!! They know they ain't got shit in Jarrett Stidham. They movin on from Carr and wanna make sure they don't accidentally have to pay him that bread. Dude barely escaped a serious leg injury, like 3 Sundays ago. Meanwhile Devante Swing ain't mincing words...AT ALL!!! (c)Funk Flex. "...if it wasn't for him, I wouldn't be here". So...do they bring him in on the QB decision process? Got to, right? They can't move him, yet, I don't think. Also, it's gotta be a BIG swing. Like...not kicking the tires on Jimmy G. or some shit. Like...they gotta go ahead and go after The Old Man, don't they? Beyond that...what's the market for Derrick Carr?

Welp...on to the games, Gents

TNF

Cowboys @ Titans (not even gonna say a lot about this. Titans sitting EVERYBODY. Ultimate business trip. Go in there, win, go home)

Caveat being, not sure Raiders o line is much better than current Bucs o line.

Carr could work in tampa, though not at his current $

..doesn't really matter, 'cause both situations have glaringly obvious problems to face.


*skatin' the rings of saturn*


..and miles to go before i sleep...

happy for the Raiders fans in my family. it's time for Carr to go.

might be a couple years before the Raiders have a true solution at QB (unless they get Brady which is the rumor) but at least my family members can move on from the disappointment that is Derek Carr.

hopefully there's some sunshine for them after the storm, lol.

every single team they are competing with lost last week, and now all 3 of those teams have opponents last in their respective decisions

another ignobility from last week, the Lions are the only team in the NFL to have given up 400+ points on the the season thus far.

and of COURSE that is what they would do.

Also, thanks Russ.

This has to be an order from Danny, correct? The Green Lizard has thoroughly outplayed Wentz. It's not even close.


------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

There's a much better chance DC does well on another team than McD ever being a good head coach anywhere.

Raiders would probably be 10-6 right now with Bissacia, and he'd get fired by Mark Davis for underperforming. Carr would prolly stil be gone too.

All the coaches/systems, turmoil, constant chopping block rumors, over the years. He's had shit defenses his entire time... for any of his shortcomings, he's been really the most stable/solid thing about this franchise the past decade (look up the abysmal list of QBs between Gannon and him). And he's been all in. I get them moving on but this was a really disrespectful way of going about it

https://youtu.be/bYAPCLYdznc

they are so unpredictable this year I see them losing this shit..

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

And have a more competent coaching staff.

..it's the only set their comfortable running right now (injuries, penalties, etc.)

Play calling is damn-near predictable.

Poor execution.

*skatin' the rings of saturn*


..and miles to go before i sleep...

Succop is a problem

Camera meanwhile is team MVP

..Tampa has a lot of work to do if they want to make a run for it all.

Brady & Evans took a huge step in the right direction today. Hopefully that inspires the rest of the roster to get on board and stop the stupid mistakes/penalties.

A healthy locker room culture is more important to winning than most will ever admit.


*skatin' the rings of saturn*


..and miles to go before i sleep...

the offense is abysmal. They out here with Sam Ehlinger. Defense getting styled on. All bad.

.

..they may not want to talk about it, but they lost far too much btwn FA & injuries to the current roster. Evans might be the biggest name mentioned when it comes to drops (unusual for such a noteworthy big play/possession wr), but he's not the only cylinder misfiring in this offense.

They thought they could do without certain stalwarts (JPP, Suh, etc), only to suffer catastrophic losses on both sides of the ball causing issues that they still haven't resolved.

That kind of chemistry & leadership is priceless.


*skatin' the rings of saturn*


..and miles to go before i sleep...

fucking idiot. respect the Hein-dawg!

It took me a while but yeah..I’ve been over that dude for a good while. It looks like this is about it for him now, right?

position to think he’s the answer. If they’re that bad, they prolly got a decent pick.

https://twitter.com/Scott7news/status/1609659037796139009?t=AddZ--oCPPLxih2FzwwXqQ&s=09

..and this is exactly what i'm referring to when it comes to details.

It takes more than talent and skill to win at the professional level. From top to bottom, you need everyone involved to do their jobs. Clearly, someone on this staff isn't committed to that standard lol.


*skatin' the rings of saturn*


..and miles to go before i sleep...

I feel like there’s probably a person whose only job is too know every possible scenario.

>I feel like there’s probably a person whose only job is too
>know every possible scenario.

Probably so.

And I’m also a big enough asshole to think THE FUCKING HEAD COACH SHOULD KNOW!

these NFL coaches are real life

The GOAT can still sling that thing. Vintage Evans & Brady & Godwin performance. Just get rid of Leftwich and Bowles.

..but its clear he needs a few more stalwart vets on that roster and in the coaching staff.

How that is achieved will be anyone's guess at this point.


*skatin' the rings of saturn*


..and miles to go before i sleep...

He may actually be back for the playoffs.

just gross what he did to Charvarius
https://twitter.com/Raiders/status/1609676958564220928?s=20&t=8Q8zWM9s6-xnxeqMhwYcpQ

on that clip…Adams is a big receiver. Darren Waller is massive, lol. It looks like photoshop, how much bigger he is than Adams.

Damn.....Carr somewhere giving a teary eyed speech to his pet dog.

Stidham low key whoo ridin

hell, Rodgers only got me 18.6

.

Keenan back
Mike Will back
bosa back

And I’m in the Herbert is elite camp

Not a team anyone wants to see in the playoffs

Defense is playing much better lately but still is struggling to stop the run.

Dude is just simply an amazing coach.

Haven’t seen a team run ont he Niners like that since the Atlanta game. I’ve said it before but it needs repeating — Jacobs is the best back in the league. Their O Line even held up pretty well against our pass rush which I haven’t seen that happen all year

Niners handled business in the end and we are inching closer to that number one seed.
Wasn’t Purdy’s best game but he’s poised and delivers when it counts

when that OL gets a little better, more continuity with the receivers, plus Najee and Warren running the ball.

going forward.

Steelers are really good at drafting

Really 6th since they had no business winning that NE game

Still pretty proud of how they played against a contender everyone (self included) assumed would squash them.

Stidham balled out. He knows McDaniels offense more than anyone on the team.

Every Raider game this season has come down to the wire... the Saints game being the one exception

Vegas is a destination, so there's definitely been an uptick in the percentage of rival fans, but at most it's like 20%.

Seeing Raider fans as a minority at home is a new one for me, even in a bad season. I was used to Raider nation taking over San Diego, and now blacking out Sofi. This was some shit.

after getting up and seeming fine

I hope it's not as bad as it looks

Down for over 9 minutes.

I’ve never seen anything like this at all.

like he was trying to be extra and get a personal foul on one of the Bengals. Scary stuff.

Hit seemed hard but not excessive to the point of him collapsing like that and needing CPR.

from the runners helmet.

like an uppercut.

and he had a delayed reaction to being concussed.

cpr and defibrillator obviously points to a cardiac event tho.

Christian Eriksen being the last one I remember (he survived)

.

There’s no way ..

https://twitter.com/FOX19Joe/status/1610098849636388870

the silver lining is he still has a pulse tho.

because i was fearing something worse than that.

sounds like it.

they better not start this game again.

Yikes. I was hoping the kid wasn’t already dead. ‘Not breathing on his own’!? Yikes. Still very scary.

The easiest to defend decision is postponing the game. My guess is they’re trying to give the medical people time to do things before they decide for sure. But there’s almost no way they’re not leaning towards figuring out what the hell to do about this game after they postpone it.

.. respect to Damar Hamlin and his family. This is clearly a serious situation. Truly hope that man recovers.

They made the right move to suspend the game. If the teams collectively choose to continue after a 30 minute reset, so be it. If not, the league should reschedule/resume at a *later date.

it worst because they are hoping for death to push their vax agenda

Dude on the Steelers site has been doing this for every death by a former athlete. Fuck researching the cause of death, soon as they hear an athlete died its the vax

even if it was old age, car accident, etc..

and my issue is with all these athletes and all these televised games this one time is the proof they needed? Not all the other games where no one fell out but this 1 time is the bombshell?

I mean he's always been a hack, and been more redpill-ish the last few years, but somehow I feel like I've been too generous

Drew will play victim here and pretend he was being general about PEDs,and other things athletes put in thieir body but also open to the slight possibility of the vaccine being factor, and that the lefty mob overreacted as they always do.

But he knows what he's doing. He's throwing chum in the water.

made similar early speculations. As irrelevant as it seems now the Goodell doesn’t have the power to just cancel a game on the schedule, coordination with players union, plus as insensitive as at sounds that’s have to be given to the financial and contractual ramifications of canceling a game and how the league would move forward. It’s easy to say the players don’t care about that now but at some point the players, their agents, their attorneys, team owners, the fans, yes the fans, other entities and the extraordinary number of people involved in an NFL game will.

cancelling the game

a second after finding out what happened to him.

I think all things considered they did a good job handling the situation.

There's a whole lot of considerations to make and to ensure that all relevant parties are on board...not to mention 70,000 (not sure the actual number) people in attendance

…as watching the incident itself. Just fucking gutting.

Josh Allen looked completely shook. Diggs looked devastated. they all did

their faces all said this time is different. Even compared to the worst things we've seen in games.

I thought nothing of it..

barely glanced up after the hit and kept typing on my laptop

but when they came back from commercial and I saw Josh Allens face…. smh

no bullshit, I had Owen Hart vibes watching the reactions.

I'm glad they cut the game.

And it was one of my other friends that hit him. My boy fell and never got up. The other friend climbed into a liquor bottle for twenty years. Shook up our whole neighborhood and school, but the guys on the field that day...it changed their lives irreparably.

Sorry about your friend, that's awful.

you gotta turn the volume down tonight my man.

on the ramifications of any “updates” not given directly by medical personnel in the room at the hospital or who attended to him on the field or in the ambulance.

and the person giving the update is his friend and rep who is relaying the same information given to his family by the professionals you mentioned.

plus...by now...multiple news outlets are reporting the exact same thing.

appreciate your concern tho.

shit...one day at a a time.

and was reading a couple of nuggets on this morning...T Higgins needs folks with him, right now. He apparently came out of the locker room, hugged his mother and left the stadium distraught. Gotta be heavy on him, right now.

..Tamaurice Higgins and his family needs all of our support right about now as well.

Too bad Bart Scott didn't think his take thru or watch the actual play...

I missed this when he said it. Had to go back and watch. I like Bart too, but from watching him on different shows the last couple of years, it does seem he fancies himself as the spicy take guy. He is getting ROASTED right now...mostly from players.

with a goal of $2500...it is currently, nearly 4 million.

https://www.gofundme.com/f/mxksc-the-chasing-ms-foundation-community-toy-drive

As a Bills fan,
football, the #1 seed in AFC & all that is nothing right now. Only hoping and praying Damar pulls through and makes a full recovery. Heart goes out to his loved ones.

no way of knowing from here but I talked to a doctor today who gave me reason to think a full recovery is possible. gotta keep that hope alive.

https://twitter.com/MattParrino/status/1610428929013055489

so it’s going have to get cancelled.

Both teams have already clinched a PO berth, and even though the game does impact
PO seedings, that’s no longer important.

So I think those scenarios make it an easy decision to make.

Betting services will refund bettors their money, and
and the game will be defined as a no contest.

If they lose, and Bills win, then the Bills will get it

depending on how this weekend goes, either it will be wrapped up for the Bills or the Bengals could be locked in and there won't even be a need to finish Bills/Bengals.

Cliff Notes version

Therefore, what this all means is that if the Bills vs. Bengals game is canceled, the following can play out:

The Chiefs will lock up the one seed with a win Saturday.
If the Chiefs win, the Bills can secure the two seed with a win on Sunday.
If the Chiefs lose, the Bills can get the one seed with a win Sunday.
The Bengals are guaranteed to win the AFC North but cannot get to the one seed.
The Bengals can finish as the two seed if they win and the Bills lose, but this would come down to the strength of victory tie-breaker.

There's no way to make up the game that doesn't result in a logistical nightmare.

No contest makes more sense I think. Compare the teams’ winning percentages at the end, they’ll just have one fewer game played.

They’re obviously not gonna play Bills-Bengals in the middle of next week, and they’re not gonna delay the playoffs a week just to fit in this one regular season game. Given the circumstances, I think everyone is fine with seeing where the chips fall after Week 18 and moving on.

about that.

at the end of the day the rest of of the Buffalo Bills will put on football pads and play the Patriots on Sunday then in the first round of the playoffs who will have a bye?

If the Chiefs win, then they will get top gun.

Bills will win it IF they beat the Pats and the Chiefs lose.

If they both lose, it will go to the Chiefs because they will have more
games won.

Bottom line, it will come down to the Bills or Chiefs….

.

If you really think the Bills or Bengals are about to complain that they MIGHT have had a higher playoff seed after they just watched a guy nearly die on the field, then you’re the only one who thinks that lol.

the bottom line is at some point the NFL will continue and the majority of the people in this post will be watching.

To pretend that there are simple answers to everything and major conversations behind the scenes between the league, the player's association and other entities about these same topics aren't happening is unrealistic.

>the bottom line is at some point the NFL will continue and

Sure, what does that have to do with anything?

Of course there are conversations happening, it’s just that the outcome seems obvious here. Rescheduling the game is not just a logistical nightmare, but it’s also likely that the majority of the players from both teams would rather just move on for a lot of reasons.

Keep playing football? If this was earlier in the year the nfl would definitely be rescheduling this game.

The only reason not to reschedule is the logistical nightmare. There is no symbolic gesture being made by not letting the bills/bengals play, but allowing everyone thing else nfl related to continue

If they had a bye week open or there was a 10 day gap in between games (Thursday to the following Sunday), yeah, but this was gonna be a logistical nightmare anywhere in the season. It’s just moreso now.

My “move on” comment was talking about the players, not the league, cause the players (and to a lesser extent, the two organizations) are likely too shaken up about the whole thing to give a shit about playoff seeding. That’s primarily what I’m talking about outside of the logistics. The league would love to be able to reschedule the game, but that’s not what I’m talking about.

They are going to move on by keep playing football. Or you think the bills and bengals are going to take a few weeks off?

Move on from THIS specific game, which this conversation is about. Nowhere did I suggest that they’re going to take a few weeks off.

Christ dude, you really got all this from “the players want to move on.” Also, “not letting the bills/bengals play” means you’re looking at it from the league’s perspective when I was clearly talking about the players. What exactly are you debating here? If you wanna keep reading too much into 2 pretty benign words, knock yourself out, but I’ll just go ahead and… move on 😏.

game rescheduled.

It doesn't make sense logistically.

What else?

The players wanna move on (c) you

Whatever that means.

however, what is the alternative? there isn't an alternative that either team could argue that would make sense. Both teams will be in the playoffs as division winners.

If the Bills start whining about seeding, they’ll look insensitive to their own player.

If the Bengals start whining about seeding, everyone will call them assholes.

If this was the difference between making and missing the playoffs, yeah theyd defintitely be making some noise to the nfl

from any of the teams due to why the game was settled in such a manner.

a tie counts as half a win and half a loss as far as winning percentage goes, so the record for both teams would inch a little closer to .500.

Not counting the game at all means you’re just figuring out the winning percentages based on the 16 games already played.

But not to the point that it would effect standings

14-3
13-3
13-3-1
13-4

I mean i guess it could if there wwas another team with a tie in that mix

Here's the scary side of the Damar Hamlin story nobody but
@Gbush91 wants to talk about.

--------------------------------------------

It's a ~6 min video but he touches on the potential financial hardships Hamlin will face due to his status as a non-vested player. He also mentions the NFL's offensive history regarding the long-term care of its veterans.
