NFL WEEKLY GAME THREAD Week 17

It is called Commotio Cordis.

Commotio cordis occurs when a person is hit in the chest and that impact triggers a dramatic change in the rhythm of their heart. The blow could come from an object, such as a baseball or hockey puck, and may not seem especially serious in the moment. However, commotio cordis is often fatal.

Pretty sure that’s instantaneous, but I’d like to be educated if it’s not.
 
This could be a number of things, chest trauma, cardiac issue, seizure.... can only speculate at this point
 
Just for the record the NFL tried pulling that 5 minute break bullshit before the coaches told them to piss off and sent the teams to the locker room.

No shit. Saw some interesting medical commentary from a physician who saw the play and noted that Hamlin got hit right in the heart area. He theorized that if a hit to that area occurred just as the heart finishes a beat cycle and heads into the next, it would likely cause cardiac arrest. The odds of that happening is crazy high. Milliseconds! Any other time, the hit would not produce that result.

I know shit medically, except applying bandaids but its an Interesting speculation nonetheless. Hope Hamlin is OK.
 
Skip earning his nickname of Brainless.....POS.

They were literally being told that in real time
 
This will probably cause a lot of these young men to rethink their career choices.

It’s what the other poster commented on before. When I was playing baseball as a youth, we often talked about it. It’s a thing. It kills baseball kids every year.
But I was under the impression that it would be instantaneous… no time to get up like Damar did
