00:00Week two of the 2024 NFL season starting last night with our
00:07first short week Thursday night football game of the campaign
00:10and a good one to begin as they often do on TNF early in the
00:15season. We'll talk about that come week seven or eight but
00:19week number two started in Miami. A divisional duel
00:22between the Bills and the Dolphins. On paper, a great and
00:26marquee matchup. Two divisional mates that to end out last year
00:30played in a game in Miami to decide the divisional title.
00:34Buffalo won. It was their fifth consecutive win in their fourth
00:38straight AFC East divisional crown. They entered last night
00:42Joveneri co-favorites to win the AFC East once again each at a
00:47plus 180 number but Miami was the home favorite laying two and
00:52a half for Thursday night football with a total of forty
00:55eight in a hook. Now, two things can live in harmony based
00:59on last night. Buffalo was dominant in the victory
01:03incredibly impressive for Josh Allen and the Bills in a
01:06statement to start twenty twenty-four. Thirty-one to ten
01:09the final there. Buffalo winning outright as a two and a half
01:13point underdog but the game and the result slightly overshadowed
01:17by the scary situation that featured to a tongue of Iowa in
01:21the third quarter scrambling to pick up a first down collides
01:25with Tamar Hamlin a completely legal play and remains on the
01:30turf. He left the game exited immediately into the locker room
01:34and was diagnosed with a concussion. Twenty twenty-two
01:37to a tongue of Iowa was diagnosed with multiple
01:40concussions and his season was marred by head injuries. Joe,
01:45we start there before we get to the result. There were some
01:48former NFL players in the discourse and conversation last
01:52night on social media that pleaded for to a tongue of Iowa
01:56to hang it up to call it a career that his life as a human
02:00being as an individual as a father as a husband far more
02:05important than anything he will do as a quarterback on the
02:08football field. I don't want to speak for tongue of Iowa. He
02:11will have those important conversations that are
02:14necessary. It is just incredibly unfortunate for to a
02:18tongue of Iowa. The NFL's leading passer from a season
02:20ago. And it's a and it's a reminder to Ben that listen
02:26this at this point with his eighth concussion, you know,
02:31the damage could already have been done. You'd never know,
02:35but these guys know full well what the consequences are
02:38before they step on this field. So this isn't a situation
02:42where oh he had no idea this was he has known they have done
02:47everything possible with him. His training has changed over
02:51the last two years been the way he is slide. The equipment is
02:55changed like everything they have done. They have done in
02:58order to hopefully avoid what they just watched happen again
03:02last night. And now as far as I'm concerned, I don't think
03:06the NFL unless the NFL doctors are out of their mind. They're
03:10not letting him step on the field. We might not see him
03:13again until November. If we're lucky here, and I know he's
03:17going to try to get back out on the field bed because we've
03:19seen this with him before, but I think there's going to be a
03:24ton of precaution here, which means Miami's got to prep to
03:28move forward with a new starting quarterback.
