Just call it a tie game / no contest and move on.  Makes no sense to adjust the entire league schedule.

Laymens CPR is very different that what hairbrush on that field last night.  Not on the same galaxy.

Not saying it was.

So it would be a tie? Or both teams would only play 16 games?

Is it possible NFL is trying to push through week 18 in hopes of the Bengals/Bills game ultimately being meaningless?

Have to imagine so. Kicking the can down the road.

Call it a tie and be done with it.

Yes

Over 4 million since the incident. That's got to be some kind of record

Big Dogs are debating this very question, right now.

No playbook, new territory...

This was my gut reaction. Basically hoping for a Chiefs Win, Bills loss and Bengals loss.

For that to happen, the Bills would have to lose to the Patriots and/or Chiefs to Raiders, which is unlikely.

It's unlikely but feels like they are hoping it all kind of just fixes itself so they don't have to, but will come up with a backup plan if they need to. I think the #1 seed is the big hurdle here. If they can get out of that, I think they just call the game a tie even if it affects seeds 2/3

Didn't think about them, but that makes sense.  Richest owner in the NFL.  

Also a place where he can pick his QB, draft one, whatever. Denver/Arizona/Cleveland he’d be stuck with what got the last guy fired

People get hurt at work every day.  People die on the job every day.  Injuries are not at all unique to football.  Football probably has a higher percentage of it's workforce get injured than many others but they're not alone at all.  I have never seen a construction project stopped because a worker was hurt or even killed on the job.  Moreover, there are 1000s of jobs where repeated activities, chemical exposure and other conditions create occupational diseases that have long term consequences.   

Deaths usually close the job site down for at least a day, if only to deal with the coroner, OSHA and the state version of OSHA. Now some accidents are even more involved with NIOSH, CSB, NTSB etc. involved. But rarely more than a couple of days and rarely shut down for more than the remainder of the day for a serious worker injury.

Yeah, I'm not debating if an EMT would be better at CPR. That's their specialty, but a doctor wouldn't be clueless. An a-hole not willing to help? Maybe.

I'd recommend to everyone to take a first aid/CPR/AED course - time well spent.

Ok but then that was a silly thing to say.

Veering back into football...

I think Skoronski might be my #1 target right now. Can play RG right away in 2023, replacing Seumalo. If he's an all-pro there, you can keep him there. If Lane Johnson does retire in 2023, or 2024, etc. You can kick Skoronski to RT. He's smart and athletic, so he'll fit whatever Stout throws at him.

The best way to stay good is to have a good offense, and replenish the OL.

It is my understanding that Paris Johnson had a very bad game against Georgia.  Does anyone have any info on that?

Be interesting to see what his measurements are.  I've seen in some places he's under 300 pounds.  I wouldn't mind this pick also unless Kelce is going one more year.  Then put Beef Jurgey at RG

I didn't study OSU's OTs in that game, but I don't think this draft class has an elite OT prospect. Nor do I think it has an elite CB prospect. The Eagles are sitting in a spot where the best players at their biggest positions of need would probably be reaches. In general, I am just not blown away by anyone in this draft out of the top 5. People said last year this draft was going to be a much stronger draft than 2022, but I think they were saying that mainly because last year's QB class was so weak, and everyone defines draft classes on QBs these days. And yes, there's no question this year's QB class is much much stronger, but excluding the QBs? I thought last year had a much stronger draft class. It as pretty loaded at CB, OT, DE, DT, LB, WR.

Unless the Eagles can get up for Carter or Anderson, I really think trading down is the best move for them, and I'm usually not a trade down guy. But for example, Ringo and Porter Jr. are regarded as the top two CBs in this class, and last year neither would have been one of the first 3 or 4 CBs taken. And the top 2 OTs in this class wouldn't have been one of the first 3 or 4 taken last year either.

His arm length is reported to be 32".  If that is verified at The Combine it's highly unlikely he'll ever be an NFL OT.

Not really considering I was responding to a post about chest compressions . If kids who take basic CPR are able to administer it and save people it's nonsensical to say a doctor would be clueless. Yes, last night wasn't basic, but still, a doctor wouldn't be clueless.

@Sack that QB   Ever want to get a mature accurate take on most things social in sports, Whitlock is a good place to start.  

Keith O is never shy to jump into the ring yelling for someone to be fired.

Let’s just say Skip’s tweet was very distasteful. Would it really be necessary to have 100,000 people drag him for it? Social media behavior is so weird to me.
