Keep all NFl chatter in here now the season is starting.

lol Eli Manning is out a month separated shoulder...they are fucked. And the Bills player Everett sustained a catastrophic life threatening injury and is more than likely paralyzed, what a shame, i mean it really really is.

On a side note, the Jets fans cheering when Pennington limped off the field when he got injured was BS, not sure they were cheering for him being hurt or Clemens going on the field but i'm ashamed to be a Jets fan after that shit. He didnt even play badly, he came back on an injured foot all wrapped up hobbling and marched down and threw a TD...oh well.

student sections at college games can usually be heard cheering at injured players, sometimes doing the old "shoot him like a horse" chant. is it tasteful? no. but its not that big of deal imo, its not meant to be malicious.

Buffalo Bills reserve tight end Kevin Everett lays on the field after an injury during the second half of the NFL football game against the Denver Broncos at Ralph Wilson Stadium in Orchard Park, N.Y., Sunday, Sept. 9, 2007. Everett had surgery Sunday after injuring his spine on a kickoff and there is concern about whether he will be able to walk again.

ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. (AP) -- The Buffalo Bills' Kevin Everett sustained a "catastrophic" and life-threatening spinal-cord injury and his chances of regaining a full range of body motion are very small, an orthopedic surgeon said Monday.

"A best-case scenario is full recovery, but not likely," Dr. Andrew Cappuccino said, one day after performing a four-hour operation on the player. "I believe there will be some permanent neurological paralysis. ... A full neurological recovery was bleak, dismal."

Cappuccino noted the 25-year-old reserve tight end did have touch sensation throughout his body and also showed signs of movement. But he cautioned that Everett's injury remained life-threatening, saying the player is still susceptible to blood clots, infection and breathing failure.

Everett is currently under forced sedation and breathing through a respirator as doctors wait for the swelling to lessen. Cappuccino said it will take up to three days to determine the severity of the injury and the recovery process.

During the operation, Cappuccino repaired a break between the third and fourth vertebrae and also alleviated the pressure on the spinal cord. Doctors made a bone graft and inserted a plate and four screws.

Cappuccino said Everett was alert and is aware of the extent of his injuries.

"I was honest with him, and he told me, 'Do everything you can to help me,"' said Cappuccino, who works for the Bills as a consultant, specializing in spinal surgery.

Cappuccino received permission to operate from Everett's mother, Patricia Dugas, who spoke by phone from her home in Houston.

Everett was hurt in Buffalo's season opener against Denver on Sunday when he ducked his head while driving in to tackle Broncos' Domenik Hixon during the second half-opening kickoff. Everett dropped face first to the ground after his helmet hit Hixon high on the left shoulder and side of the helmet.

Replays showed the player twitching for a few seconds as he attempted to get up before falling back to the ground. Everett's eyes were open but he showed no further signs of movement during the next 15 minutes as the team's medical staff and emergency personnel placed him on a backboard and, with the player's head and body immobilized, loaded him into an ambulance at the Broncos 30.

I dont know, fans were cheering as he stood up, collapsed, stood up, stumbled and walked off the field limping. The guys on ESPN were saying thats BS and the fans are better than that. I think he played alright for the times he had the ball.

Coles blew it up for me in fantasy though, 2 TD nabs rock:

BENGALS ARE GOING TO THE SUPERBOWL
