I'm not reading this whole thread, but it seems like this would be pretty easy to confirm or disprove.


Here's Franklin's & Pinkel's quotes...
quote:

On the first, Franklin said his shoulder pads got popped up over his head and knocked his helmet off. The second time, he felt a player grab his chinstrap and rip it off and yank the helmet off, too. “I’m sure our players didn’t take it off,” Gary Pinkel said. “And I’m sure he didn’t take it off. It just happened. … Every single time his chinstrap was snapped off. It didn’t just slide off. So, I don’t know what to say.”


Here’s the game tape, 1st lost helmet at 12:40…the 2nd at 2:28:40, I think the video evidence refutes Mr. Franklin’s claim, he just got his shite rocked by Jenkins & Jones…

I can't watch the video right now, but if the only two times he lost his helmet was clearly due to getting popped (and not someone reaching up and unhooking the chin strap and pulling his helmet off like they allege), then Frankin and Pinkel are losing a lot of respect with this whiny bullshite.

Im not bitching about any of this what so ever...

You cant say for sure either way whether or not it was true on the second play that Franklin alleged.

Its all moot and doesnt mean anything but please spare everyone the faux impartiality.

Thanks.
