Game Thread: The Bye Week Watch Everyone Else GDT

I think his arm is much stronger........just my opinion. No way to prove it.

I wouldn't say MUCH stronger, perhaps slightly but not anything significant. They throw a very similar ball IMO with lots of air and loads of accuracy.

Is that Kubiak? WTF?

 

[Excel]

Crap another head coach with health problems hope he is all right.

John McClain:

Gary Kubiak is down on the field. He just dropped to the ground. He's coherent and talking to doctors. He's being loaded onto the stretcher.

I didn't see what happened. Did a player run into him or something?

Hopefully he's just overheated or just dehydrated or something. It is about 61 with 64% humidity there right now for whatever that's worth. The roof is open.

If hes talking, its probably not a stroke. Wouldn't think its a heart attack either.

Haven't heard anything like that. Tafoya just reported that he appeared to be in a great deal of pain and had his eyes tightly closed. He tried sitting back up but couldn't stay up.

One more thing: He was talking the entire time, too.

 

[tomikcon1971]

Wow. They had several shots of him during the 1st half. Seemed fine. Hope he's okay. I assume he's done for the night even if it's just precautionary.

 

[Excel]

Nobody ran into him. Sure puts the game in perspective real quick.

 

[tomikcon1971]

Ambulance. Yikes. Probably the right call.

 

[tomikcon1971]

Reed should have rode off into sunset after the SB.

David J. Chao (MD and former NFL team head physician):

Good sign on reports of pulse, blood pressure stable. Also Texans doctors would not allow Kubiak to sit up if life threatening.

Sitting up decreases blood flow to the brain and that is the first worry always. Latest on air report: he did not lose consciousness

All NFL sidelines are required to have Emergency Action Physicians. Full lifesaving equipment, meds, IVs, defibrillator and ambulance.

Rich Cimini:

Jets fear Jeremy Kerley's elbow injury is serious, I'm told. Awaiting tests. #Jets

 

[Dodub]

Keenum is just having fun out there. Its fun to watch

 

[Dodub]

Colts just don't look like the same team that was so dominant. It's going to be a long season without Wayne, they need a WR bad

 

[ChrisPozz]

Keenum is just having fun out there. Its fun to watch

One observation: He already has improved mechanics since college and I THINK it's helped his ball velocity, too. That's pretty dang interesting if I'm correct on the velocity part of it.

 

[tomikcon1971]

It's early, but if this keeps up the next few games is Schaub gone next year? Yates and Keenum?

I assume there are cap implications.
