CINCINNATI — The Monday Night Football game between the Cincinnati Bengals and Buffalo Bills has been officially suspended after Bills' safety Damar Hamlin collapsed on the field and was rushed to the hospital.

Hamlin collapsed on the field and was administered CPR before being driven away in an ambulance during the first quarter of the game.

An official statement from the NFL states Hamlin is in critical condition.

"Our thoughts are with Damar and the Buffalo Bills. We will provide more information as it becomes available," the statement reads.

As I said, they are used to seeing injuries which take up to 10 minutes on the field. They are not used to seeing disruptions for 25 or 30 minutes. Usually you see play stopped for several minutes, then the player is removed with a cart, and examined away from the field inside the facility. Sometimes they are sent by ambulance, but that’s not the ordinary thing on the field.

This was a very lengthy stop in the play of the game. Everyone was out of the usual procedure.

I hope Damar Hamlin will be ok, but this is a very serious injury.

Cardiac arrest, not heart attack. There is a difference.

“This late in the season, a game of this magnitude is crucial to the regular-season outcome ... which suddenly seems so irrelevant.”

What he said is the absolute truth...

“...the regular-season outcome...which suddenly seems so irrelevant.”

You’re right in that this is speculation, and of course, would be against HIPAA for anymore to be let out.

Two times games have been suddenly called—

Game 3 of 89 World Series—Earthquake. Minutes before first pitch, actually; public safety concerns.

The real intensity in the NFL seems to be focused on the fantasy leagues. So what happens with the stats from this game? Does the re-do start at the same clock time with the same field positions or like a brand new game and the first one doesn't count?

The fantasy debates about this must be burning; it would be like painting Avatar world green, or putting an announcement at the end of the new movie that Wakanda is not a real place.

His brain was being starved of oxygen by a circulatory system that had stopped functioning.

Not because the heart had stopped, per se, but because his heart muscle tissue was in total chaos, electrically speaking, with pulses bouncing back and forth, robbing it of any pumping efficiency. CPR couldn’t help because his heart was balled up tight like a fist.

Reports say he is in critical condition. So definitely not fine.

Just seems to be more of those subtle heart defects in the last two years.

The only unprecedented thing was he wasn’t 51 and 328 lbs. One of those unexplained collapses. I wonder what could have happened? It must be that Cincinnati air.

Have heard of that happening in things like baseball with a boy getting hit. It is odd the media is pushing this reason. Has commotio cordis ever happened in football before?

“He’s doing fine.”

Had heard he had been “put under” and intubated (ventilator).

His brain was potentially starved of oxygen for a long time. How do you know he’s “fine”.

The FR vax cadre would say this is the cost of doing business and you can’t prove their science didn’t work, nothing to see here... How much longer can they make their excuses for their major clusterf&Yk that is killing people daily? I fear this is going to become common place in the next two years as this rat poison causes further damage and deaths to those who willingly or were coerced into taking it.

I hope they young man makes a full recovery and eventually those pushing this poison will be brought to justice—not holding my breath, as justice is dead in the USA.

God forbid this should happen again...

My fear is that it will. They coerced many of these players into
taking the experimental inoculation.

Antonio Puerta (26 November 1984 – 28 August 2007) and Marc Vivien Foe (1 May 1975 – 26 June 2003) also died from cardiac arrest while competing in a professional football game — although it was a different kind of football. Reggie Lewis (November 21, 1965 – July 27, 1993) died from cardiac arrest while playing basketball. There are others.

That may explain the refusal on the part of the teams to resume the game.

It may be that they have “had it” with the league pretending that, with it’s mandatory gene therapy injection policy, it has not damaged the health of it’s players.

Nope, I disagree.

I watch the moment of the hit. It was a solid tackle on Higgins.

Hamlin even pushed off another offensive player and jumped to his feet, adjusted his helmet, took a step and collapsed.

That was sudden cardiac arrest.

How about award a tie to each team?

No, no. Cincinnati was leading 7-3. If Buffalo were to lose, Kansas City takes the lead in the AFC.

I get to Cambridge regularly...mainly because they have a great computer store there. Whenever I see a Cambridge cop I ask him: “hey,did the Cambridge police act stupidly?” They always smile!
