I'm sure within a day or so we'll get a report that they did an MRI or whatever and they'll say he had a legit injury. What else would they say, that he was getting his *** kicked and tapped out to protect his precious QB rating?

You be the judge if he looks like a guy who pulled his hammy?

 
Hmmmm!

would seem if you hurt your hammy you would tend to grab at it when you go up....

Well we got clowns like Ramsey that pull up lame (looking like a hammy) after a possible return TD, but then still does a stupid dance on hammy he tweaked 1-2 seconds prior cuz he’s thinking he got said TD 🤦🏻‍♂️

The league has gotten very strange over the last 5-10 years

I think that whole thing was a TD celebration. Though I think he actually tweaked it later.

I think Ramsey may have started to feel something go during that fumble return that was called back. He is a tough guy that plays through things. He may have rested it and thought it was ok and went back in and played instead of resting it.
 
In the plumbing world, you don’t joke about a leak…….. inevitably it comes back to haunt you….

Hammy anyone…… ?




Salute the nation

Agree, but was a convenient ham grab when he got beat. Tell me seriously, do you think Ramsey looked in top shape?

Is LaMarr bigger than the team / franchise ?

Las I checked, there wasn’t any thing like NIL portals to transfer to a different team, if you got mad………

I watched the video probably 20 times, and I can’t see the hamstring injury. He got right up and walked normally off the field. Maybe he was benched and the injury is a way to save face. I don’t know.

Pass whatever you're smoking. A pro athlete who lives and breathes pursuit of a ring tapped out to protect his passer rating?

You should partner with Schefter
 
He could have, we’ll never know. Maybe of felt a slight twinge, spasm, whatever and figured there was no sense in going back out to that massacre. They were out coached so badly, had a depleted OL and the chiefs were bringing the house. It looked like a Steeler playoff game, I know you are judged on how you respond when things aren’t going well so if he just quit, bad look.

Hmmmm...potential fine coming??? And I'm talking about for the entire organization!!!

From the interweb:

"Penalties for faking an injury
The NFL has a clear policy against faking injuries, which falls under the category of an "unfair act." Violators, including players, coaches, and teams, face serious discipline:
  • Minimum fines: The league can issue fines starting at $350,000 for clubs, $100,000 for head coaches, and $50,000 for players.
  • Suspension and loss of draft picks: For particularly egregious violations, the NFL can suspend individuals and even force a team to forfeit a draft pick."

You really think fines are coming? 😆

I think this is directed toward players faking injuries on the field to get a free timeout. I doubt it applies to guys who walk off without any limp then does not go to the blue tent or have any medical staff worried about an injury to their franchise player until somebody decides it's a bad look so they put a towel on his hammy to save face.

I don't believe Lamar was listed on any pregame injury reports, so if Lamar claims that he had a hammy injury before the game, they could get penalized for not listing him.
 
I don't see it. Players know. He's their leader, if he did that **** the rest of their veteran guys would be all over it. Nothing to see here. He's a running QB, a small twinge changes his ability to do what he does.

* Exceptions: These rules don't apply to teams in Boston with Marcia Brady as QB


Fixed that for ya!
 
I don't think he was faking. I have not seen Lamar quit before. He also looked mad. If he was faking it think he would do a better job. Limp, grab it, go down like he was shot, etc etc. ..Lamar has not looked quick this year so might be something lingering

More than some. I was on, I think it was called Russel Street Report, or something like that. There were at least a dozen posts that think he was faking.
