I hope he's OK.

I had hoped that y'all had quit trying to kill him, but it looks like that was a vain hope. At least the concussion was the other team.

I agree, since I would like to see him continue his Hall of Fame career wearing #7. :mrgreen:

Methinks Ben is full of crap...and doing his very best drama queen impression...the way he does with all his injuries.

But he wins a few more playoff games, and he can do whatever he likes!!!!

After all, old-time Stiller fans might recall another QB that used to ham up his injuries...guy by the name of Bradshaw.

That's because he was unconscious at the time.

But he's been the drama queen with this concussion right from the beginning.

You might not have seen the game, but bdm will tell you that after he was down on the field for 20 minutes, and then was being wheeled out on the cart, he gave the "thumbs-up" sign to the crowd just before he was wheeled into the tunnel.

He's been hamming it up ever since in all his post-concussion interviews.
