The Commissioner wasn't in attendance, as far as I know, and the President of the NFLPA was not in attendance, as far as I know.

It is understandable that the decision makers took time to get the correct information, talk to all concerned parties, and discuss options and possibilities, before making a decision or a statement to the media.

This situation is obviously not common, and for the most part unprecedented. The correct decision was made, and that's what matters.

Making millions of dollars playing the game that is a business, then talking about the game that is a business, and then criticizing the game because it's really a business, just doesn't resonate with me.

The NFL didn't come to Ryan Clark's house and force him to play in the NFL, so why suddenly act like the NFL being a business is evil?

Everyone, absolutely everyone involved in the NFL wants the young man to be well and to recover.

If Ryan Clark feels that strongly then he should quit his multi-millionaire job at ESPN as an analyst for the league/game he finds so evil.

Go work at a toll booth.

The coaches can't just announce the game is postponed. They all talked to each other. They literally showed clips of McDermott, Taylor, the head ref and an NFL official talking on the field. And there was for sure communication with other people in new York. And the NFL announced it.

Commotio Cordis Can do this. Trauma to the chest at the exact moment a new heartbeat was to begin I’d see it in car crashes when they went into the steering wheel. As long as you near professionals or they get to you within a couple of minutes you can be saved with no long term effects.

Shhh let the faux outrage on the internet play out instead of using facts.

mr. tegu 01-02-2023 10:23 PM
Reality is that whether or not he makes a full recovery might be a while before a result is in. He might be listed as expected to make a full recovery in the next day or so or perhaps some damage occurred or whatever but you can’t just wait for resolution on his condition to determine this game being played as it could be weeks. Seems best case scenario is brain scans come back negative and it’s announced he is staying for observation and is expected to slowly recover.

Pretty unbelievable Goodell couldn't make the obvious declaration.

Nobody was "getting real time info and updates of exactly what's happening", not the teams, not the game officials, not the broadcasters and not the NFL New York office.

The rule for extended game delays is a warm up period then resume the game. That, along with a normalcy bias that Hamlin would be OK, I don't have a issue with the NFL waiting to make a decision. I have no problem with allowing the teams involved and officials the ground making the decision and the Commissioner backing it up.

Probably just don't know what to do and hopefully their lack of quick response is because they're focusing on what really matters right now -- which is Hamlin. They can come up with answers later. I can't see them playing this game so whatever solution they come up with can wait.

What happened to Hamlin is more immediate and direct than maybe anything that's ever happened to a player in the NFL, but that is true and that's the other unspoken thing here with all this. We're all watching a sport here where guys are literally destroying their bodies and their brains for our entertainment (granted they are at least well compensated for it). We just don't have to see the results of that 20-30 years down the road for these guys, but it is happening and it is shortening lifespans. Where do you draw the line with stuff like this?

Somebody's going to get screwed. Could be Buffalo and Cincy by making them play rushed games just as the playoffs are starting up. Could be just Buffalo by telling them they have to forfeit. Could be the Chiefs by making a decision like this.

There's no perfect or ideal solution. And there's no compromise. People just have to be adults and roll with something and be understanding that the circumstances are what they are.
I can't see the NFL calling up KC and making them choose if they want the 1 or 2 seed - that's an unwinnable situation, and not one the NFL should put any team in. Ultimately, the NFL has to sack up and make some tough choices, knowing it's impossible to make everyone happy. Personally, I think it would have to come down to winning %, and it is what it is - a shitty situation all around.

Guys, I tend to hate the NFL/Goodell as much as anyone, but we need to pump the brakes just a skosh here. Pretty much all the NFL has done so far is follow their playbook of procedures. Which is what they're there for. To buy them time to think up the right response. Now, in this particular case, which has never happened before in anyone's memory, the playbook is falling short of the proper response. But it's also really vanilla. That's what the playbook is for. Slow things down until they can figure out what to actually do. Every large corporation operates like this.

They're waiting to see what happens with Hamlin before they do anything, that's all.

Both teams will want to play it after Hamlin is stabilized, if only to honor him.

If he dies it's different. I can see a week of mourning ala 9/11.

That's the human thing to do, but the NFL is a massive billion dollar business. They have to think about the answers to these questions now, their entire postseason depends on it.

I was upset with some of his comments. I’ve been in way too many to remember conversations with a parent who can’t stay with their kid in the hospital. They have to go to work. Other kids involved. No support at home. Family is from out of town etc.

Not everyone has the financial means to drop everything and be with their kid. 24/7 in the hospital. They have to work.

ChiefsFanatic 01-02-2023 10:40 PM
Roger Goodell is terrible, but people need to realize that this situation and how to deal with it, this late in the season, isn't only up to him. The NFLPA, and probably some fine print in the CBA, have to be part of the decision as well.

There could be playoff shares, incentive bonuses, etc. etc. that come into play, as well as any decisions the players make has to be approved by the NFLPA.

What happened on the field is a tragedy. I have been sick to my stomach since I saw him collapse, but decisions that affect at least 200 other players and coaches cannot be made immediately.

Imagine if you are on a team affected by this, and it affects your ability to earn a performance or incentive bonus. Would you take legal action against the league and the NFLPA because you lost money due to a player on another team being hurt?

There are probably so many factors that we cannot even imagine, that will have to be considered before deciding what the outcome will be, etc.

Clark made an interesting point. The players at one point believed the league would require continuance. We saw Diggs trying to rally the bills players with a speech. They've all seen situations where the game goes on. Just a devastating scenario. Imagine if they did feel forced to play.

Which is what they're there for. To buy them time to think up the right response. Now, in this particular case, which has never happened before in anyone's memory, the playbook is falling short of the proper response. But it's also really vanilla. That's what the playbook is for. Slow things down until they can figure out what to actually do. Every large corporation operates like this.

They're waiting to see what happens with Hamlin before they do anything, that's all.
Good levelheaded take.

In situations like this, I think it's easy to want to assign blame and divert emotion to a target. That's likely what I was doing, and it wasn't fair of me to assume there weren't protocols in place and Goodell would defer to coaches and players that experienced it firsthand. Thanks for the check.

The big (and only) mistake the NFL made was giving word to Joe Buck and Troy Aikman that play was resuming in 5 minutes.

Anyone watching at that moment could tell from the players reactions that this was not a typical cart on the field injury. The NFL needed to adapt, because even in this thread we were all saying there was no way play could resume.

The players, McDermott and Taylor made a different call and the NFL honored it. Not sure what more the NFL could have done after the coaches made the call to go to the locker room.

How many ppl here have given CPR? I've given 5 min of good chest compressions. The ribs always break. It also means he was not breathing on his own. The fact he was put under intubation (tube down his windpipe) means he isn't breathing on his own.

He's probably brain dead at this point if he is even alive. The family is likely being faced with a very difficult decision on whether to proceed with care, or take him off the machines keeping him "alive". I hope to God none of this is what is actually happening.

Meh he is always an ass clown like that. He wouldn't work with Sage Steele because she had a different political view than he does.

A lions player died on the field in 1970. They continued to play the game afterwards.

Also, wasnt a Bills player 15 years ago or so essentially parylized on the field and the game went on? I remember that being even scarier on field than this.

We're all watching a sport here where guys are literally destroying their bodies and their brains for our entertainment (granted they are at least well compensated for it). We just don't have to see the results of that 20-30 years down the road for these guys, but it is happening and it is shortening lifespans. Where do you draw the line with stuff like this?
Why didn't the NCAA postpone the game when Kevin Ware snapped his leg during the final four? That happened right in front of his team's bench too. At eye level thanks to their stupid insistence on playing on elevated platforms.
