Saying the Carmel police need to be sued is out of line. They did the right thing when on the scene.
“out of line.”
lol. Hardly.

So they can assume he overdosed without any mention of medication, and the caller specifically stating they thought he was having congestive heart failure… you know from years of drug abuse. I’m not the one that reported a medical emergency being “suspected drug overdose” leading to every news organization in America putting that on their headlines.
all I said was that I hope drugs weren’t involved, and if so…
and it would be able to substantiated as he no doubt had a blood draw through whoever ended up caring for him.
unfortunately after researching some, police are pretty well protected on reporting and defamation claims. No surprise there.

We need to stop. The Carmel police did the right thing. They had a man with a history of addiction and was showing signs of a drug overdose and administered narcan. That was the correct thing because it won’t hurt him if it’s something else. If they hadn’t done that then they would have been neglectful.
Speak for yourself Chloe.How did they know he had a history of addiction? For the same reason they should have known that filing their report that way would be a media's dream for clicks/engagement? If they speculated it was a drug overdose because of who he was and for no other reason, then their report is a bigger issue than I am making it... especially when the 911 call mentioned a different health cause (maybe he has congestive heart failure and has been recently under a doctor's supervision for it, did you think that might be a real possibility?)

Sounds like it was called into 911 as a heart failure. O2 was in the 70s so it's possible. Would explain his bluish color as well. No definite answers here, but we know one of two things for sure. Either his blood wasn't circulating well enough to provide oxygen to the body, or there wasn't enough oxygen entering the lungs.
Yeah. I really hope that there were no drugs involved, and that he sues the ever-living % out of the Carmel police for a false report suspecting drug overdose. If this made national news for a health issue that wasn't reported correctly, there needs to be accountability.

So we can pay him $25m/year to sit on IR half the time?
I was mostly joking. I’d rather think that money could be better spent distributing it across the roster for improvement.-

There’s plenty of other types of insurance to sell. They would do just fine.
Who would do just fine? Insurance companies? lol…I’m sure you’re right… it’s just $1.6 trillion annually.
I guess they could sell property insurance in Florida to make up the difference… oh wait.

No source for this. Just my own musings.
DL coach Nate Ollie's release coinciding with Jim Harbaugh's hiring by the Chargers could result in freeing up OLB coach and interim head coach Giff Smith. Giff was Gus Bradley's DL coach on the 2017 Chargers when they where 3rd in the league in scoring defense, and both Joey Bosa and Melvin Ingram had double-digits in sacks.
Can he bring Joey with him? -

I didn't make any predictions, but I thought he should have been let go at the time.
And the bolded got a small chuckle out of me.
I don’t know why a coach would feel compelled to be on twitter… Nothing good comes from posting on stuff like that.
“ I don’t even know what to tell my safeties.”
That’s a problem to admit publicly. How about “don’t lower your shoulder into the helmet of a diving player, like the one that about knocked our best receiver out of the season.” Is that hard to say? Apparently so for Mike, now he’s unemployed. And I would go as far to say no longer employable in the national football league. He broke several unwritten rules there.

Can someone refresh what Mike Mitchell said towards the end of season. Wasn’t there some controversy there?
Nevermind found it.
pretty sure this forum said he wouldn’t be here in 2024 after this…
it’s ironic, because that’s indeed what his safeties did this year

This is no surprise after the report of Davis talking about not wanting to pair a rookie head coach with a rookie GM. Telesco was the only one that had GM experience.

I don’t know, but I vastly prefer him spending time coaching up our future franchise QB instead of trying to get us to eke into the playoffs to be one and done.
I think he’s spending time with him to prepare him so we hopefully can hit the ground running come september. I doubt he spends anywhere near this amount of time with a backup QB.
I agree. My point was that we haven’t even seen a truly focused Steichen yet.

The thought that keeps coming to my mind is this:
How much more could we have gotten out of Shane Steichen the coach if he wasn’t juggling between coaching a team fighting for the playoffs and coaching up the 4th pick overall that is sidelined with injury?
I’ve seen throughout the year people say AR is soaking up information. Always with an iPad. Always next to coach asking questions. That is a difficult situation for a rookie head coach. Coach for this year, but also prepping for the coming years by getting an injured qb up to speed. Meeting individually with him often. Maybe that is just Shane, but I can’t imagine when AR is healthy, he is spending much time with other quarterbacks…

I agree, Chloe.
Totally get tired of social media post after social media post pretending to be news. Some guy out there thinks, hey, this guy likes chocolate ice cream... and that guy likes chocolate ice cream! This could be a thing!!! I saw a thing go by on FB saying that "Bucs WR Mike Evans could be the PERFECT FIT for the Colts!" Why? Because his contract is up? And the Colts have a need at WR? Therefore it makes it a "perfect fit"? Jim Bob Cooter is the OC under Steichen. Steichen was once the OC under Sirianni. They would run the same offense. This could be a thing!!!! Uh huh.
I get what you are saying, but is Adam schefter, who largely uses social media to report his news, just pretending? Or is it more likely he has information?
this came from an nfl insider… and now it’s reported that Brian Johnson is not likely returning to Philly as OC. So while it may be speculation that they will attempt to get Jim Bob, it could also be highly likely there have been discussions, which is where the reports are stemming from.
It’s not like it came from a forum board or some nobody on twitter.

The thing with Narcan, as someone who has used it to save drug addicts, there’s really no “slightly”. It either works or it doesn’t. It can raise pulse rate so maybe that’s why they say “slightly”. Not sure honestly why the report says “slightly”. Not saying they’re wrong, reports aren’t typically supposed to be left to interpretation like that. Makes me wonder exactly what the response was(my department, we had to describe the response in detail)
It said he was unresponsive and had a weak pulse when they arrived, so I would assume both in pulse rate and any sort of response could be interpreted that way.
It’s a pretty vague report…

Gus Bradley doesn't run the Fangio defense, not because he's stubborn, but because he can't. He's limited by personnel. Blackmon and Cross both play Strong Safety. Thomas is our only Free Safety. He doesn't play it that well, so he barely counts. We don't play this defense because we can't play this defense. And he won't play it next year either, unless he gets better personnel at the Free Safety position.
I agree. I think personnel, especially at safety has been limiting for Gus. I don't think it's ironic Ballard talked about needing to improve the safety play. I think they like Blackmon, and will look to retain him, but I see Ballard potentially being aggressive at the safety position in Free agency. I know they like Scott coming back from injury, but he's still raw. They want a veteran back there as a major upgrade.

i thought he had a respiratory illness, why does people think it was drugs
It's speculative based on the report that Carmel police gave.It was listed by the authorities (not the media) that it was suspected overdose. He responded "slightly" to narcan, and was turning blue upon their arrival. No mention of drugs used, just speculated by authorities.
Of course the Colts are going to state it was respiratory illness. If there is no definitive proof (aside from what most certainly will not be released to the media by any doctors that cared for him following the event), then they can control the narrative. The media ran with the "suspected overdose" line big time, and created their own narrative that the Colts were just doing damage control.

Yeah the insurance companies telling doctors how to practice medicine in particular is just pure insanity.
I live in the UK (I have dual nationality) and you can say the NHS is flawed (which is it), but id take this slow flawed machine over the US system 100/100 times.Insurance makes the world go round.
If insurance fails, then the dominos fall. The U.S monetary system (and a great chunk of the global system) is entirely built around a type of trust in the dollar, which is backed by the US government, which is insured, hence the insurance makes the world go round. Healthcare insurance, in my opinion, will never be "solved" in this country. The entire system is now at their mercy, and if the government tries to socialize medicine, it would fail entirely before anything new would be built. We cannot even perceive how devastating that would be.
But I digress, because I don't disagree. When a licensed practitioner cannot authorize a certain exam because there are steps that insurance requires leading up to that exam, it's a real problem. To make matters worse, the backlog (especially after Covid shutdowns) of even getting into a physician, especially in specialty, causes even more issues with the said necessary steps, just to schedule an exam deemed necessary by a practitioner. In short, it's a mess.-

Go watch Painkiller on Netflix. There is a reason they are overprescribing them, and it is disgusting. The US healthcare system is disgusting and frankly we should all be ashamed of ourselves for letting it get to this state.
Have seen it. My wife is a medical provider, and has strong feelings on the state of healthcare. There are a lot of suits and not enough white coats.St. Vincent Indianapolis is now controlled in St. Louis. There are bean counters in Missouri telling the doctors in Indiana how to practice medicine.

Bill Romanowski said he had twenty documented concussion and late in his career he stated he was eating as many as 150 pills per day!! So I ask where was he getting all those pills? Dr. Feel Good?
Painkillers are vastly overprescribed. I once received an addiction-inducing amount by a urologist after I had a kidney stone. I took maybe two and disposed of the remainder, as they weren't needed. The next urologist I went to gave me one on my next encounter... One.
Some doctors are just out of their minds when it comes to overprescribing pain medication. -

but he has to give up those responsibilities to his daughter if he's been making any decisions under the influence.
im not sure he’s making many decisions. He may be have a drug issue, but he’s not dumb. His daughters have been heavily involved, even representing the team in various capacities at nfl meetings.
He granted Ballard full control over the hiring process last offseason, so there is no mistaking or debating who was responsible for the hiring of Shane Steichen. The only decision that is apparent that he made was the firing of Frank Reich and hiring of Jeff Saturday, and it’s hard to argue it didn’t lead to a successful offseason transition, which it was intended for. We can even debate if Saturday didn’t establish a new identity/culture of accountability in his short time here. Offensive line flipped a switch at the end of last season and played pretty dang good this season.
im not worried about Irsay’s involvement. He owns the team, he has a capable team (including his daughters and longstanding executives like Pete Ward) in place to continue operations without him being involved.
