[Very harsh take on the Tagovailoa situation](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UQuLjv-Zwyw) which I happen to completely agree with. Note that at the 7 second mark, he gets to his feet, looks fine, jogs forward several steps, and _then_ drops to his hands. Even I know that when a person does that, something’s seriously messed up. And **on top of that** , it’s a short week! What especially baffles me is that he was supposed to be an emerging phenom. We even had a thread speculating which team would get him. ([It’s right there in the title!](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/tank-for-tua-or-the-0-16-nfl-season-thread-2019-ed/840066)) Maybe he wasn’t quite the gamebreaker everyone was hoping for, but he made definite improvements from '20 and '21. Why didn’t the Dolphins organization protect their star? At the absolute minimum move him to backup for one game and do more rigorous tests to see if the brain damage really _isn’t_ that bad. And of course, that means that the Bills are in all likelihood going to run away with the AFC East. Coming back after being down 20-3 against the always-tough Ravens was really, really big. There’s been plenty of talk on sports television (particularly Speak) that this is going to be the Bills’ year, and right now they have as good a chance as anyone. (Toughness under fire, a red-hot quarterback, and getting that one BS call when you need it is always a lethal combination.) You know what, screw it, just because I feel like it, I’m making a prediction. 😲 If the Bills make it to the Super Bowl this season, they’re winning it. I really don’t see anyone in the NFC that can match them with everything on the line. Biggest stumbling block is probably the Chiefs. --- _[View the full topic](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/nfl-2022-week-four-score-and-seven-years-ago/972456)._
