Word is he has a pulse but isn't breathing on his own. Per Fox 19.

I'd wager we're pretty die hard fans here, and I can't imagine any of us being upset if the game was called. If the players are told to go on the field and they look as shaken as they did last time we saw them, I'll probably just turn it off. Not out of protest, but who is feeling this now?
Extremely well said.

The way the broadcasters and the team is acting, I’m fearing the worst.
I’m sure they know more than we do.

Read that he has a pulse but is not breathing on his own. They were trying to get his Mother in the ambulance to accompany him but I don’t know if they were able to do so.

You can’t restart this game until you have some good news. Im fine with calling it a tie and moving on. Hurts us in seeding but oh well, this is bigger.
RE: ***Week 17 GameDay Thread - Bills @ Bengals*** - Spider - 01-02-2023
They can not call a tie..
Its play tonight or carry on tomorrow or wednesday

My speech if i was coach McDermott would be something like
If we leave now all of us won’t even be able to sit with Hamlin and if he’s fighting for his life it could take him all night to either get stable or pass away. How about we play for the next 2 hours and give everything we’ve got so when he wakes up we can tell him that we got the one seed.
The very 1st thing I’d do tho is ask Josh Allen does the team wanna leave. Allen’s the locker room leader he has his pulse on the team.

Per twitter he has a pulse but is not breathing on his own.

That’s incorrect. Chiefs are 13-3 and Bills would be 12-3-1

Being completely unaware of said pieces, my knee jerk reaction is finish the game on Wednesday, and make sure the Bengals and Bills games from week 18 are moved to Sunday afternoon.
No idea if that is viable, but that's the best I can come up with.
The week 18 games are already on Sunday. It would be folly to play on Wednesday and then on Sunday play for the Division. I don't have a solution, but that one is not viable.

I think if something stops your heart, they can get it started again more easily than say a 70 year old who has a heart attack. Especially given the immediate assistance available. Wishful thinking maybe.

I don't disagree it would be better to call it. I just dont think they will. Too late in tbe season to resxhedule, there are playoff seeds and Division titles on the line, and like I said, contractual obligations.

If the Bengals and Bills agree to giving up their shot at the #1 seed, then I don’t think anyone can complain. Especially when we don’t know if this kid is gonna live.

IM not sure you wait for mom if he needs immediate medical treatment from a level 1 trauma center

Hasn't been mentioned yet I don't believe, but u have to wonder how Tee is handling this.
RE: ***Week 17 GameDay Thread - Bills @ Bengals*** - Goalpost - 01-02-2023
I don't know how you can play unless there is a more positive update. You just can't turn it back on like the game all of a sudden matters.

I’ve looked at the replay several times. He hit his head HARD after tackling Tee Higgins.

Ah, I thought the Bills had a game lead. Must just be the head to head.
