  • Perfect weekend for me. I got to make my long time soul mate my wife officially. And I got a eagles win today. Life is good. 

  • Listen up blog.  Enough. These 2 ass clowns are suspended for 2 weeks.  They've both had warnings to quit the personal attacks.  There's a line between trash talk and just abusing other posters a

It's bizare, like he;s a cowboys fan

@downundermike nailed it above. He can blame the "elite” Cowboys D if they shut down Hurts. Conversely, he can build up Hurts if he shreds said D

Was the camera man wrong for running to a spot right in front of Adams?  Impeding his path to the exit tunnel?

Etiquette wise, sure. I still don't think it warranted a push though. If the league wants to fine/suspend Adams I'm fine with that. They'll set a precedent that this isn't acceptable to do so no one else does it. But if this guy ends up filing a lawsuit and shows up in a courtroom with a neck brace, it's a joke.

It seems like he's taking the preliminary steps to eventually filing a suit. He's following the playbook that some greaseball most likely gave him. And if no physical injury, he'll probably play the "mental trauma" card. 

I don't know but you have to have actual damages and those require incurred medical expenses and things like lost wages.  Lost wages and incurred medical expenses are what constitute damages.  I am guessing that he probably got a $4,000 ER bill already.  Often Hospitals will not submit these bills to people's health insurance, because they can claim a lien on a personal injury settlement that gives them a reimbursement rate.  So the person incurring the bill cannot get them to send the bill to his Health Insurance for payment.  His health insurance will not accept the bill the client recieves to process a claim.  So they feel like the only choice they have is to just pursue a claim.   You cannot just "claim" mental trauma.  You have a burden to prove it occurred more likely than not as the result of the incident which takes expert medical testimony.  Defendants also tend to retain their own experts who will lay bare whatever childhood trauma and past event the person has to diminish the claim.  People have to disclose 10+ years of past medical histories.  They don't just hand over money to claimants.

Cleveland Browns: Orlando Brown Sr & The Flag/Eye Incident TDiBH

Oddly enough, the NFL reversed the suspension after they found out the flag was improperly weighted and thrown. I think Brown is still partially blind as a result of that.

Kirk Cousin and Matty Ryan were all time offensive stat collectors before Wentz got into the league lol. 

But like I said earlier from the post game 

Jaws and Ruben said that if you win the turnover battle this year, You win the game 81% of the time. Guess who won the turnover battle Sunday...

I wouldn't lump Ryan's in with cousins, Ryan has an MVP and led his team to a Superbowl they should have won if the idiot coach just ran the ball.

Cousins has 1 playoff win...

I need Grady Jerrett to file a police report on Brady for kicking him twice in game. Because assault is assault. Lets take this as far as we can!

Tbh i actually think the cowboys defense is likely the best we face all year. Are they elite? Probably not. Too early to say that but i do think they are a top 5 defense. It’s going to be a good barometer of where exactly we are as an offense and things we need to improve upon going forward. I’m hoping everyone is healthy and ready to go.

I've said very the very start. Cowboys have a good...really good defense. NOT ELITE*

The problem that you cant grasp is the Cowboys have played NO ONE and yet trail the Eagles, Bills, Tampa, and 49ers in almost every stat. 

When I explain to you that 14 ppg while being 19th  in turnovers isnt as good at 17 ppg and 1st in turnvers you brought up Def Coord's(which is weird to me) 

I dont think any defense in the league is elite. BUT* if you are calling the Cowboys Elite, YOU HAVE TO CALL THE EAGLES, 9ers, Tampa, Bills ALSO ELITE

 

Cowboys have played the two teams that played in the Super Bowl last season and the Tom Brady Bucs. They have let no one score over 20 points in a single game.  They have allowed no team to score more than a single touchdown in a game.  They have done this all with the pressure the added pressure and responsibility that falls into a defense when the offense has a practice squad backup QB playing which means in none of these games are the Cowboys able to build big leads and then just focus on defending the pass against teams desperate to try and catch up. 

I have called the Bills, 49ers and Bucs defenses elite. Eagles could be at that level but I need to see it from Gannon first against good QBs and good offensive HCs.  Dallas has done that this season.  Eagles probably won't get that opportunity to do so until the Packers game from the looks of their schedule especially if Dak is out this week. But at the end of the day the Eagles defense being elite or not has absolutely othinf to do with the Cowboys defense being elite.

"He made arrangements for private transport to the hospital." Doesnt sound like he called 911 or had EMS check him out. Instead got someone he knew to drive him to the hospital because he knew EMS wouldnt take him lol.

I dont know why you want this guy to be hurt so badly lol

I'm not hoping the guy is hurt, it seems a few people think this is just normal and he should brush it off like nothing happened. You absolutely can get injured while being pushed and falling on concrete with 20+lbs of equipment.

Let me speculate now. Maybe he didn't want to get hit with a $700+ bill for an ambulance ride to the hospital when he could just order an uber or have a coworker take him there.

Cleveland Browns: Orlando Brown Sr & The Flag/Eye Incident TDiBH

Yeah... I remember that.  No reason to throw the flag high enough to hit a guy in his face.  Sadly, Orlando Brown died about 10 years later, from complications of diabetes, I think.

I remember that game, that ref chucked that flag right at his face.

I think Adams is definitely looking at a suspension.

Has the NFL even made a statement yet???

Yeah I'm curious to hear the full extent of his injuries. Broken bones aren't something you can fake or embellish, but it looked like he fell on his butt or hip. Guess we'll have to see what comes out.

You mean the Bucs team that had Fournette put up 21 carries for 127 yards? That’s elite?

Imagine being so hurt that you feel the need to go to the hospital...and you order an uber to do it. Next level stuff there. Please wait while we find the nearest driver lmao.

Didn't want to get hit with a $700+ bill for an ambulance ride but was cool paying a couple thousand in ER fees?

So, like I said, ignore all stats and numbers and go to Gannon vs Quinn. 

 

This isn't Eagles defense vs Cowboys defense.  I don't know why you aren't able to comprehend this.  One defense has absolutely nothing to do with the quality of the other defense. 

Cowboys have a great top end defense.  We have seen then go against some of the best QBs in the league and best offensive coaches and be dominant against them.  They have established themselves.  They will be the best defense we face all season. 

Eagles defense is also very good.  They could also be elite. Has nothing to do with the Cowboys defense.  But before I say the Eagles defense is elite I need to see them go against a top QB and play dominant against that offense because we saw last year this DC can shut down mediocre to bad QBs but had major issues when going against top end QBs.

Ambulances are like $1000.00 

I'm not calling an ambulance for a sprained ankle.

It's not like it was a life or death situation and he was needing to be rushed to the hospital. All doctors offices are closed, only place to get checked would be ER's or the hospital. Why is it such a foreign concept to go and get checked after you feel you were injured?

Maybe his insurance doesn't cover an ambulance ride in non-emergency situation but would cover ER costs. See, I can speculate all day too.

If all doctors offices are closed, then yes.

People go to the doctor's office and ED for the dumbest reasons all the time.

Yeah... no kid that breaks an arm ever waits a few minutes for their parent to be able to drive them to the hospital.  Or, kid injured during a football game goes to the hospital with their parent, rather than in the ambulance?  

 

Actually... it happens all the time.  Just this year during a JV game, a kid dislocated his knee.  The trainer put the joint back in place, and then he was carted off the field and sat in the golf cart for about 20 minutes before his parents arrived with the car to take him to the hospital.  No ambulance was called.  And I can assure you, having seen the injury with my own two eyes...  the bone was out of position.  (Looked like the fibula popped out of position with the knee. @HazletonEagle can tell you how common that is or how severe an injury it is.)  

 

I don't see the problem with him not getting a ridiculously expensive ambulance ride versus an Uber.   He could be hurt bad enough to warrant a trip to the ER, without that injury being life threatening and requiring the ambulance immediately.   Most injuries like that will be put in the waiting room at the ER anyway, so it's not like he's necessarily going to be seen first thing when arriving at the ER anyway.   It will depend on how busy they are.
