Yes, because .30 cal bullets fired from high powered long rifles hit a human's neck and leave no exit wound. Here I was thinking Kirk was a pencil necked dweeb when in reality he's got a bull neck with a muscular density surpassing that of the world's strongest men. Silly me.
What's weird to me is the shot itself. If Kirk is actually wearing hard body armor then it makes sense. Bullet clips the armor plate and then ricochets up into his neck. But it just really doesn't look like he's wearing any body armor at all. You can see the outline of his pecs and his nips. So if there's no body armor for the bullet to deflect from what happened? He didn't just get shot directly in the neck from the front. I doubt the entry wound would have been that big and there definitely would have been a gaping exit wound. So did the bullet hit this cross he was wearing? Seems odd a .30 cal bullet you'd normally use to kill deer would be stopped by something like that. Especially considering we don't see any wound/blood on his chest.
When I first saw the video of the shooting, I immediately thought he'd been shot from behind. So there would be some small entry wound on the back of his neck and it forces his body to tense up like we see in the video, then the shirt billows out and the gaping exit wound appears on the front of his neck. This guy's video seems to suggest a bullet could have come from behind him. A bit morbid but he tries not to show the blood and whatnot. I'm also not claiming any crazy conspiracy theory like Israel killed him or the shooter was a patsy or anything like that. Just find the shot itself a bit odd.
The Bears gave up 52 points today to the Lions who could hardly move the ball in week one. Obviously he's only two starts in, but he was a handoff merchant in college on a team that cheated their way to a natty.
Kinda nice to have a bruiser like Allgeier who can come in late and burn clock. Would love for Bijan to stat pad, but keeping him healthy and saving the tread on his tires isn't something to scoff at.
Like, I like Gibbs the RB for the Lions. But I had to hear all this shit last season about how he was better than Bijan. No, he's just been playing on a team that makes deep runs into the playoffs every year while Bijan is suffering on the Falcons. If you stuck Bijan on the Eagles or the Lions he'd have 2K yards rushing and 500+ receiving no problem.
Then why haven't they really amounted to much since their Super Bowl appearance? I don't think they've been to the playoffs since the year after that Super Bowl.
Coaching stupidity, basically.
Did the Falcons just have the best Draft class of all-time? Both rookie 1st rounders have sacks. Watts is a legit nickel player and starting already. Bowman is looking good, too. The only guy not playing is the 7th round tackle.
Don't think it's going to happen. The Falcons' OC is kind of an idiot. Like, this dude never runs plays from under center. The Falcons run Pistol almost 50% of the time. The next closest team is like the Eagles who run it less than 20% of the time. Shit makes no sense.
