Allan was struck in the head and immediately collapsed. You can watch the incredibly scary moment in the video below.

The Giants’ disastrous Daniel Jones era is even more painful because of what could have been
Daniel Jones is the problem everyone but the New York Giants saw coming. Now in his sixth season, Jones is a bad quarterback masquerading as an elite one, purely by virtue of the desperate 4-year, $160M contract the Giants gave him in 2023. Now at 2-8, with fans watching this team get beaten by the Carolina Panthers and lapped in the NFC East by the rebuilding Commanders, there’s no doubt the Daniel Jones era is coming to an unceremonious end.

We’ve apparently reached the time in the NFL season when fans of some poor teams have given up on 2024 and are looking to 2025. That’s the reason All That and a Bag of NFL Mail this week addresses Daniel Jones, Mike McCarthy, Mike McDaniel, the New York Giants and Dallas Cowboys.
Let’s get right to it:
Q. Armando, I smiled when I read on Tuesday in our local papers about the possibility the Giants would bench Daniel Jones because of his contract after I had read that at Outkick on Sunday.
So, Carnac the Magnificent, what’s going to happen next?
– Leo, Long Island, N.

For the first time in the near 100-year history of the Ryder Cup, members of the U.S. team will be compensated for playing.
Money, money, money.
It has plagued golf for the last few years. But it has also been one of the biggest topics of discussion surrounding next year’s Ryder Cup at Bethpage Black.

Portland Trail Blazers fans were concerned when Anfernee Simons left in the first quarter of Tuesday night’s game against the Minnesota Timberwolves. But no one was more upset than some random Midwestern guy who had the guard in a parlay.
The guy in question — who runs a gambling X account called “Michigan Made” — took to social media to air his frustrations to the team‘s official account.
“There goes everyones parlay msh injuries are ruining the fun of sports betting and rigging is at an all time high,” he wrote.

The 2024 season is starting to wind down, but the conference championship races are on fire.
Georgia and Tennessee are essentially in a SEC Championship Game and College Football Playoff elimination game in Athens in the biggest matchup of the weekend. Plus, two-loss Missouri is hanging on for dear life and will head to South Carolina to take on a hot Gamecocks team.
The Heisman race is wide open as well after Miami – led by quarterback Cam Ward – fell to Georgia Tech.

Nate Davis is gone, and Bears fans are happy.
The Chicago Bears signed offensive guard Nate Davis to a three-year, $30 million deal in free agency in 2023 to finally add some beef to a leaky offensive line. The signing almost immediately proved to be a disaster. Davis was in-and-out of practice with minor injuries from the time he signed the deal, preventing the Bears from forming the type of chemistry on the offensive line they desired. After a terrible first season with the team, Davis was somehow even less reliable this year.

Joel Embiid finally made his season debut for the Philadelphia 76ers in what was the team’s 10th game of the year, but instead of playing like a well-rested superstar, he played like a role player still asleep.
Embiid missed the team’s first nine games after sitting out the first six due to left knee management, which the league didn’t exactly buy given the team was fined $100k, and then missed three more games after being suspended for shoving a columnist after a loss to Memphis earlier in the month.
