Richard Collier will be with Jaguars for tonight's game

I really hope he does the coin toss. The fact that Collier survived that attack is a miracle, and all NFL fans should see that, despite his injuries, he is still alive and still living life as best he can.

Some people that go through these things simply give up on life because they are disabled. To continue to live life is the best thing a person can do because I learned that one should try to live for as long as they can to correct their wrongs.

Glad he will be there.

He has an incredible strength.

Inspirational story

I saw his interview for ESPN a few weeks back. That man has an incredible spirit. Through all that adversity, he still had a smile on his face and he still has a positive outlook on his life. God bless him and I hope he participates in the coin toss as well.

Go Collier

Good for him. I hope I see him out there flipping the coin. He’s an inspiration.

BTW, we need a game thread. 75 minutes ’til kickoff!!!

BBS has the gamethread scheduled for 8:00 Eastern, 15 before kickoff

I’ll have the inactives up really soon. They just have to get around to announcing them first. Once that’s up there will be a good place to talk about the game.
