That Shazier injury is probably the scariest injury I've ever seen, it's up there.

Certainly not the initial hit but his reaction, does not look good.

I saw that on sportscener this morning and I felt queezy watching him call the trainers over. I am with you, it's surprising that more of these types of injuries don't happen more often. You are talking a matter of inches in tackling form that can cause more of these injuries.

The one thing I love about football is the controlled violence with these men. Nonsense crap like what Gronk did is inexcusable. 1 game suspension is even worse, this happening only once in his career had to play into the length of suspension. But a move like that should be at least 2 games, play was dead and he slammed his elbow into the back of the guys head (causing a concussion). I have a feeling if this was Pac-Man it would have been a 4 game suspension at the least

You play football, you get hurt.

You have to expect a level of risk involved with the occupation you have chosen. He was at fault for the risk and his own injury based on his form and technique. I feel for the guy and hope he makes a full recovery but again, he chose his profession and he also made the error himself.

Unpopular opinion, but have at it.

Risky opinion to say the least. That's why I said it's a matter of inches. These guys are moving fast and what was thought to be good form for the tackled (in this case) could end up being bad form if the receiver makes a slight adjustment at the last second. But yes, they chose their profession and know the risks. Just like I know that I could be rolling the dice by constant deployments

That's just human nature. It's the same reason people slow down break their neck to look at car crashes after the fact

i didn't mean i got enjoyment out of hits like that, i physically cringe when i see them. the hit on AB in the endzone made me change the channel so i didnt have to see a replay of it.

i meant i get enjoyment out of the game itself.

at some point watching these dudes kill themselves for our entertainment is a morale decision we make. maybe i'm being dramatic but thats where my mind went last night when i saw those hits. the JuJu hit, the Shazier hit, the AB hit. just nonsense stuff

I’d imagine so. Fresh legs coming off a 2 year bye

NFL commissioner Goodell's new 5-year contract worth up to $200 mln, but nearly 90 percent of compensation tied to meeting financial targets and other incentives.
According to Fox News his salary is $3.6m with incentives that could reach $40+m per year.

Is Master P his agent?
