I can't envision a scenario where he doesn't. The NFL simply won't allow it. [Reply]

He damn near ran into the wall coming around the corner.

Well, and he should have lateraled it. I thought so at the time that Darrel had more running room. It was Patrick's call to keep it. I appreciate the competitiveness, and it was a weird injury. [Reply]

10 or 20 years ago, I'd agree with you. Nowadays, head injuries are policed differently.
I remember Gonzales once getting nailed in the head, was woozy getting up, didn't seem to know where he was. He played the rest of the game. No medical tent, five step protocol, etc.
I want Mahomes to play, but not if he shouldn't be playing. I don't want any long lasting damage to him. [Reply]
Thank god they don't interview me after the games. Tracy whatsername on CBS to Mathieu: "So you know Buffalo is a different team now. They've gone 11-1 since week 6."

I just don't see it. No way in hell does the best player in the NFL sit during the AFC Championship Game. [Reply]
