2022 NFL Week 17 Thread: Mert is Slacking and the Titans are dead

[Dimmauk]

I honestly kinda don't know, looked like a really hard hit to the chest and then he collapsed a few seconds later

Looked like a normal play. Everyone looks and sounds distraught

[Krandor]

If they're going to keep playing I'm going to assume he's not dead.

You assume a lot

[Tyche]

If they did 9 minutes of CPR, he died.

Whether they got him back or not is the question.

[Weltall]

The coaches reconvening on the middle of the field and blocking their mouths to talk…cannot be good news.

[Rhyis.]

good for mcdermitt knowing and acknowledging how his guys are feeling atm. taking his guys to the locker-room is the right move

[kuronosan]

Absolutely the right move. Poor Hamlin. Jesus.

the hit looked so benign...wow

[Dimmauk]

Maybe an undiagnosed heart condition? Idk

[Melena]

Jesus fuck, not good at all. Scary that what looks like a normal hit would do that.

Feels like they might have played the game if not for him making the call. The higher ups were ready to go in 5min

That's potentially good news. And if the CPR was quality, he could make some semblance of a recovery. The concern at that point would be the cause of the arrest and the injury to his brain from the lack of oxygen.

If he needed an AED and CPR, that means both the heart stopped, and then when they got it restarted, it likely restarted in an abnormal rhythm. Or it could've been the other way around. Started in abnormal rhythm, attempted to shock, then it stopped. But you don't use an AED on a full arrest. You don't shock a flat line.

The hit looked relatively harmless, but really humans weren't made for NFL tight ends to run into them at full force.

you can tell in the 2nd meeting between him, taylor, and the refs he was the one leading what was going to happen next. which makes sense, since he would know where his guys head space is best

a younger guy might have had difficulty with the situation. glad it was mcdermitt

Worried about him though, more than 10 minutes for ROSC and he can't breathe on his own? Hopefully that was quality or that brain is wrecked. Even if it was quality, he may never play again.

don't think anyone should worry about whether or not he plays again. just hope he'll be able to return to a semblance of normalcy

[Melena]

Listening to the summary, it sounds like they were loading him in the ambulance, and had to put him back on the ground to administer CPR. Hoping for the best, but that can't be good if they felt immediate cpr was more important then getting him into the ambulance.

A third of those Twitter replies are people asking his vax status.

[Rhyis.]

a third of twitter are teenagers and younger
