His status for Sunday should be decided very soon.

His status for Sunday should be decided very soon.

I think the appeal will hold up; the only reason they even got an expedited appeal is because JRJ's dad decided it the first time, which honestly should have been avoided.

Good God, the NFL really doesn't think these things through sometimes.

Here, this says this better than I could:

"It’s always important to be aware of the various relationships that can affect the independence of a given decision-maker. As it relates to the one-game suspension imposed on Buccaneers receiver Mike Evans, some have pointed to a pair of potential conflicts of interest.

First, some have suggested that Jon Runyan, the NFL’s V.P. of policy and rules administration, should have recused himself from deciding the issue because his son plays for the Packers, who are the next opponent of the Buccaneers. If the Bucs don’t have Evans, it obviously become easier for Green Bay to win.

This assumes that Runyan makes the call without input. Per the league, Runyan consults with others in the decision-making process. It also overlooks the fact that Runyan’s decision is subject to appeal.

The appeal is handled by a hearing officer jointly appointed and paid by the league and the NFL Players Association. Currently, the two options are Derrick Brooks and James Thrash.

That leads to the second point. Some claim that Brook has recused himself due to his longstanding relationship with the Buccaneers. According to the league, Brooks hasn’t recused himself — and he won’t. The assignment is based on a rotation. If Brooks gets the assignment, then Brooks will handle the appeal."

Why wouldn't have Mike Evans been suspended this time around? He was suspended in 2017 for going after the same guy.

This appeal is NOT expedited in any abnormal fashion. https://www.footballzebras.com/2022/09/ ... ted-fight/

Speaking of Tampa player availability:

Buccaneers coach Todd Bowles said that DL Akiem Hicks (foot) won't play in Week 3.

Adam Schefter reported that Hicks tore the plantar fascia in his foot and is expected to miss a month. Josh Wells (calf), who gave way to third tackle Brandon Walton in Tampa's Week 2 win over the Saints, also won't play in Week 3 per Bowles. Bowles made the comments on his radio show. It's possible one or both of these players wind up on injured reserve.

Wells is already the Bucs backup LT who had been a starter due to previous injury. Gary and Preston will be looking at 3rd string LT on Sunday.

They are really banged up for sure. Unfortunately they got a total stud on the other side in Whirfs who can likely leave on an island all day, give whoever the LT is a lot of help.

This is super weird.

[Pckfn23]

I don't get it.

[APB]

This is super weird.

I saw that tweet yesterday and started to question my own lefty observations. Definitely makes you second guess.

Just how weird it looks.

Lefties are just weird in everything they do!

This must be one of those things where some people's brains have a mind blowing incident and others have no idea what they're talking about. Like a visual cilantro.

I've watched some of the clips and the left-right flip makes literally no difference to my perception, but I believe that other people might feel differently sincerely.

I wouldn’t say my mind was blown but, for whatever reason, when I watch Tua or Tebow or whoever throw as a lefty it seems clunky and disjointed. When I see it flipped it looks natural. Call it lefty bias…

Yeah, I’m with ncf and apb on the lefty cilantro train. Just never feels right watching a lefty throw.

Didnt being left handed used to be considered a mental handicap?

If this holds until Christmas, I would start Etling.
