The whole thing is bad optics, but over at the bench was particularly bad…

Kayvon Thibodeaux: I didn't know Nick Foles was hurt when I was celebrating

Giants rookie edge rusher Kayvon Thibodeaux's celebration after Colts quarterback Nick Foles injured his ribs on a second quarter sack drew the ire of Colts center Ryan Kelly after Sunday's game.

He should have gotten flagged for unnecessary roughness for driving Foles into the ground, and/or flagged for unsportsmanlike conduct for excessive celebration.

He also should have gotten body-slammed by Quentin Nelson and the rest of the Colts O Line.

Get ready for Sam. We need a L.

I'd be satisfied with a second tie.

Encouraging progress from the rookie.

Two ties counts as one loss correct?

Or is it two ties counts as one win?

Same thing I guess.

Record is evaluated as win-loss percentage. So, with respect to ranking records, ties essentially become non-entities. That's why a team with a win-loss-tie record of X wins, Y losses, and Z ties will always have a better win percentage than a team with X wins, Y+Z losses, and 0 ties. That is to say, the Colts, at 4 - 12 - 1, will have a better record than teams at 4 - 13, and will therefore rank below those teams in draft order.

I know ties count for half of a win.

Their current win % is .281.

4.5 divided by 16

Jeff Saturday thinks Colts players should have gone after Kayvon Thibodeaux - ProFootballTalk

The NFL has cracked down on taunting in recent years in order to minimize ill will among opposing players. A legal celebration by Giants defensive end Kayvon Thibodeaux engendered plenty of ill will on Sunday, against the Colts.But not as much as interim coach Jeff Saturday would have liked to...

Well, watching the colts this year prepared me well for the Purdue LSU game

 

[ChristianPatriot]

Really scary situation at the Bills/Bengals game.

They were giving a player CPR on the field. I’ve never seen that before.

 

[JCSR]

Just turned on Bills/Bengals and see a player down. CPR being performed. That's all I got. This is bad.

 

[JCSR]

Looks like Bills player that was in on the tackle. He got to his feet and fell backwards. Bills team in prayer now

 

[JCSR]

Both teams heading to locker rooms with 5:58 to play in the first quarter

 

[ChristianPatriot]

I’m not really sure how they finish this game.

 

[Ingomike]

Players have been openly crying on the field, even the studio staff appear to have tears in their eyes. Never seen anything like it. A long term veteran former official said he had never seen an ambulance on the field.

I cannot imagine they finish the game tonight…

 

[JCSR]

It's being reported that he has family there and they left in the ambulance with him.

 

[JCSR]

His Mother is with him. I cannot imagine................

His Mother is with him. I cannot imagine................

So glad he has family with him.
