The game is now off and not rescheduled. NFL expects the weekend games to go ahead. Damar remains in critical condition and no health updates are expected today. I'll skip this Sunday, can't think about walking into the stadium and screaming for football... Hopefully there are some positive updates before Sunday and I change my mind. Was really looking forward to watching the Bills beat the Pats.

Amazing that his first question (albeit written) was "Did we win?"

Lets hope the lad keeps making progress and is back to full health asap.

A shame to hear that the NFL has cancelled the game completely though. If it had been a different outcome to Hamlin's situation you could fully justify it never being replayed - but Im sure many of the players and staff would want to get the game completed now that they know Hamlin is on the mend, and would be in a much better frame of mind for it knowing hes awake and responsive.

Titans lead at the half in the AFC South showdown. Titans running the ball relentlessly.
Yes, they're definitely chewing the clock up with the run game.

Lawrence misses his man wide open and Jags have to settle for 3. Titans convert a FG.

Even at 16-10 to the Titans, I'm hoping that your Jags come out on top here as you've got a better chance of progression.

Bit of magic from Trevor needed.

Jags win it 20-16 and the AFC South with a great piece of defensive play to take a fumble back for a TD.

Congrats @DarrenFreemansPerm !! :)

Not replaying the game means the seeding for the AFC playoffs are skewed slightly
Bengals being awarded the AFCN title before it’s confirmed don’t sit right
Hopefully Cincy smash the Ravens to remove the doubt later on

Talk about a Pyrrhic victory.

My Texans win 32-31 after a crazy last 2 minutes, but move out of the #1 draft pick and possibly miss out on C J Stroud. :rolleyes:

We sacked the guy who got us to 4-13 last season, so Lovie Smith's worse 3-13-1 should probably result in the same outcome.

As an absolute NFL sicko, I was rooting for this outcome so much. Embracing the chaos of the Bears getting to field all the offers for that 1st overall pick rather than Bryce Young to Houston being a foregone conclusion.

Not that I have a dog in that fight as a Raiders fan, even if we are likely to delve into the QB market in the offseason. Can see us taking more of a project rookie - whether someone like Will Levis early or someone else later on - who doesn't have to start for a year or two and get a veteran in. Will be weird without Derek Carr in the team as he's been the only QB I've known since being a fan in 2017, but I'm ready to embrace change whatever direction that takes us in.

Will also be nice to ditch the hangers on in the fanbase who are clearly bigger fans of Carr than they actually are of the Raiders.

Is Derek Carr really that bad?
Won’t they take a salary cap hit as he only signed a new contract last year?

Didn’t smash them, but won. I fear for Cincy next week, if Andrews is back and Baltimore have a running game. They just couldn’t move the ball in the second half. Understandably Tee Higgins looked a shadow of his normal self. Joey B struggled, and the offensive line suffered another injury.

Tough match up for sure.

We’re going to the playoffs!!! Stayed up to watch Seattle win in OT, then went to bed with little hope that Detroit could beat the Packers for us, and THEY JUST HAVE! Get in!!!
