I hope he is well. I am gonna watch NFL Total Access tonight and hopefully they will have an update on his health. Early word though was that he did have movement in his extremedies. It was too bad his game ended like that last night cause he was having a good game, there were several times where he picked up blitzing Steeler LBs. I love backs that can block and I did not realize that he was such a good pass-blocker.

I also remember that game. It was a big shock that he decided to enter the NFL draft that year after blowing out his knee.
Limas Sweed also put a heck of a hit on one of the Ravens DBs, I think it was Walker or Ogelsby, I dont remember.
I still say the best hitter Ive seen at the safety position is Sean Taylor, he just layed out people. He would even hit people in pro-bowls. I loved the way he played the game. RIP Sean.

I too wish him well. I loved the way he played last night. I don't recall him blocking like that in Buffalo, though I avoid watching the Bills if I can. I hope he's ok, that was a hell of a collisionckupets04 said:
I watch the Bills everyweek, and I dont recall him ever playing like that. I was so excited the Bills drafted huim being a huge fan of U. of Miami.bigdik said:
He just didnt like playing in Buffalo. He even at one point said they should move the team to Toronto. Some of his comments about Buffalo many ppl here didnt like.
I bet alot of ppl in Buffalo were happy he got hit like that. It was a legal hit, I was just really glad he didnt get seriously hurt after that hit.
That would be from the Hines Ward WR education programckupets04 said:
Apparently Limas missed the class on catching TD passes.
LOL... but he got an "A" in the class where you fake an injury to divert attention from the fact that you just dropped a huge TD in a big game...bigdik said:That would be from the Hines Ward WR education program

You should have seen guys like Tatum and Lott. Helmet to helmut hits were an every game occurence.ckupets04 said:

This site has a youtube link to the hit...to me it was a bit of a cheap shot in that he led with his helmet directly into McGahee's helmet. Is the NFL talking about a fine? Or am I misunderstanding the rule here?

It looks more like he led with his shoulder, and aimed at McGahee's shoulder. You could see him turn his shoulder into the hit...notanerd said:

Haha, oh man I was thinking the exact same thing when I saw that play. He knew he was gonna get an earful from Tomlin and his receivers coach after that play and I figured if he faked an injury maybe they would go easy on him after that.
Yes, you are misunderstanding the rule. This point was actually discussed between Jim Nantz and Phil Simms during the telecast and Simms did a great job of pointing out to both Nantz and the fans at home that there is no such thing as helmet-to-helmet when you have a ball carrier down the field and you're a tackler.notanerd said:
That rule is in place to protect defenseless players (in the act of catching, throwing, or players being blocked). A player running the ball and lowering his head/shoulders to brace for a hit or drive through a defender is not defenseless.
Didn't Tatum actually legally killed an opposing player on the field of play and showed no remorse?Hurricane Hank said:
