They’re day to day.

I would imagine I practiced harder than the chiefs did tosay

a bit rough to practice with no rest

thursday games are bs

I bet most of this week is walk throughs or very light practice.

Appears Eric Berry did...

The Associated Press' Joe Reedy considers Austin Ekeler (neck) "extremely doubtful" for Thursday night's Week 15 game against the Chiefs.

The L.A. Times' Jeff Miller adds Ekeler is "very stiff" on Monday and can barely move his head after aggravating his injury in Sunday's win over the Bengals. Melvin Gordon (knee) is said to be eyeing a Week 15 return, but who knows if that'll happen on a short week. If both sit, Justin Jackson would be the Chargers' lead dog in w

I'm just glad Ware didn't break his collarbone.

Looked like he got hit in the esophagus, did they say what happened?

He got tired of people doubting him so he had to fake an injury.

Yeah that's what I thought happened when he grabbed at his neck/shoulder area. But his arm wasn't just dangling when he walked back to the bench so I assumed he was ok for the most part.

Yeah I'm not too concerned, considering the short week. I would guess that at minimum, Hill will play, even if he doesn't practice this week.

But we can all cry and shit our diapies over "day to day" if that's what you all want to do in every single thread that mentions injuries

I figure Watkins and Erving don’t play.

Ware with a hamstring injury may not practice all week and the severity of the injury will determine if he suits up. I bet Hill plays.

My money is on Berry being MIA yet again.

Hate to see Mahomes on there for anything, even if not serious

He's on there?

Huh?

Where?

Ware was holding his shoulder , where in the hell did he get a hamstring????

Left wrist, FP

Ah.

Limited for the third week in a row, so in other words making zero progress?

Figured he wouldn't be feeling great Monday morning. Ravens got plenty of good hits on him.

Mehh, Tom Brady has spent his career being on the injury report on an almost weekly basis.

They say what Cam ervings injury was?

Not sure why they don't have two teams that are coming off bye weeks play Thursday games. Kind of ridiculous to have a game 4 days after playing your last one.

Talk about safety for the players bullshit. I want Roger Goodell to get a concussion and aids.

doesn't matter have mahomes

yis

Thursday games should only be played by teams coming off of a bye week.

Cheapshot ****ing Ravens- I hate them.

could not agree more

This one goes out to Hagland and the Underpass Four!

This has been studied and there is zero correlation between TNF and increased injuries.


https://www.footballoutsiders.com/st...-more-injuries

Last year was the first year they measured a slight increase on TNF compared to regular Sunday and Monday games but it was slight and only that season.

https://profootballtalk.nbcsports.co...ey-were-right/


Does playing on 4 days rest effect the quality of play on the field? That seems unquestionable.

This is a wonderful idea.

I've always wondered...why Thursday night? Why not Friday night? It's an extra day. Yes, it gets in the way of High School FB, but really, how can that be a reason not to play on Friday nights? Thursday night football sucks...

No, NOT useless. If Hobo can not provide a boost to this defense after meditating in his sweat pants for two ****ing seasons, he can do the next best thing and provide CP with "day to day" entertainment.

Like a joke.

WHOA, you better watch it over there in Haglund Land, Glory Dayze. Next thing you know, you'll be getting banned from that thread and then two a week for no ****ing rhyme or reason whatsoever.

And on and on it goes at "Power with no checks and balances"-Planet.

:whackit:

The team can't risk Mahomes taking 15 knockdowns a game. Way too dangerous. Andy has to mix it up a little more. More runs, more quick passes.

So we just relax “day to day” until Thursday?

He won’t. Not every team has Baltimore’s defense.

Probably. Do they really need more practice right now? Just get out there and walk through the gameplan, do some light stretching and minor cardio work.

Sports Broadcasting Act.

I agree..Pat seems a bit more skittish back there..holding on to the ball a little longer. Earlier in the year the ball was out ALOT quicker. I would like to see him go back to quicker reads. Utilize the slants with Kelce more to minimize the hits he's been taking.

Baltimore not only has bad ass dudes on defense, they have probably the most creative defensive looks in the league and attack the QB like no other.

We ain’t gonna see a defense like this unless we play the Ravens again. The closest is Seattle’s, but their personnel isn’t as good overall. They have a secondary that can be taken advantage of by a guy like Mahomes.

That was direct more to us fans. LMAO.

Oh.

Yeah, lately, I have a hard time relaxing between games. The bye week just about killed me. This long week after the Thursday night game will be brutal on me.

Just list yourself “day to day”. It’s the best you and Reid can do.

^this^

and a 7-5 team is playing for survival on a weekly basis... Their playoffs have already started.

Whew. It's good that they're out.

Play everyone who isn't in a full body cast and treat Thursday as a must win.

A win on Thursday + a Patriots loss/tie on Sunday and the Chiefs clinch the #1 seed.

That essentially gives the Chiefs three weeks until the Divisional Round of the playoffs to be conservative with managing injured players.

Not yet. But, they need to probably win out. I doubt a 9-7 team makes the playoffs in the AFC (probably would win the NFC East, though).

I do not care about the safety of the players. The NFL should just have them sign waivers. List out every possible risk you can think of. If they want to play, sign it. If not, go become an accountant. Play good football.

I completely agree with this and if the league wants to keep doing games over seas, this would be the schedule spot for those games. Bye week, long travel to foreign lands, long week to come back and go back to the normal routine.

I think that’s the reason. Just like they defer to college on Saturday.

Interesting. I didn’t realize it was determined by law.

Not sure if facetious. If not, then I'd support this idea very much. Manage your pennies wisely kids, and let's get back to playing some pre-Goodell football, please.

HS Football is the biggest show in town in some places, total "live or die" stuff. Mahomes is from that culture.

A thursday win is a big deal. We could lose to Seattle, beat the Faid and still get the one. We must win this week.

They do sign a waiver like that. That is why the issue was not that hits and concussions cause CTE, but rather that the NFL knew that and covered it up. That makes the actions of the NFL malicious, and not simply gross negligence.

Intentional torts are not held subject to exculpatory clauses, only negligence.

Isn't there some kind of "well no shit Sherlock" exemption to that law?

shit i didnt know that was how it worked...

let me try that.

You want to go backwards? Going to have to stop being a fan. Ratings are up. Highest ratings in years across the board. The verdict is in, the public likes the offense. Sports change over the years. The publics taste in sports change.



The NFL doesn't change to what the fans want, they will get left behind like baseball. Fans of the local teams but don't watch a game in the other league on a regular basis.

I'm a fan of defense, but my God those 90s Chiefs teams were excruciatingly boring. I remember when the Chiefs scoring 21 points was a fireworks show.

https://profootballtalk.nbcsports.co...s-ready-to-go/

So what was the actual injury?

He got his foot stepped on I think.

Not just boring but heartbreaking. I don't ever want to go back there. It's Mahomes time!

Erving, Ware and Watkins didn't practice today

Those were the teams that lost the games like we won Sunday.

I'm talking about moving forward. As CTE is now a known issue, its a risk you decide to accept or not. Completely understand suits or the frustrations of old players though.

I'm not sure how every time we lined up for a field goal you weren't on the edge of your seat

There is a vast difference between a good defense shutting down a good offense ala the Bears/Rams, and an okay defense shutting down a bad offense Seattle/Vikings last night.

Starting to feel that way now, honestly.

Yeah, Butker did not look good on Sunday.

Hopefully he bounces back Thursday night.


We need his head right for the playoffs.

This isn't really a one game issue though, is it? He's been missing a PAT almost every game dating back the past month or so.

No, but I was more concerned about his body language after the missed FG's than the actual kicks themselves.

Dude is struggling mentally right now and just doesn't look very confident.

These injuries are piling up.

Just because they sign a waiver like that doesn't mean it would hold up in court. Actually that waiver would work against the NFL in court more than it would for them.

Imagine if Damien Williams was our starting RB, Nnadi had to play all the snaps at NT, and Chris Jones, Anthony Hitchens, Travis Kelce and Kendall Fuller were on IR.

That's what the Chargers are dealing with.

Be thankful we just have a few OL nicked up.
