THREAD: My Zapruder breakdown of the Chauncey Gardner-Johnson/Javon Wims beef.
It begins on this play on the Bears’ first possession of the second half. After exchanging some words, CJGJ rips Wims’ mouthpiece off and it falls onto the ground.

Wims is subbed out and therefore cannot retaliate on the next play. But he’d have a problem if he was in because his mouthpiece is still on the ground!
The Bears then suffer a delay of game penalty which pushes them back five yards: right into the mouthpiece! The right guard throws it out which Buck and Aikman recognize.
Foles is sacked which forces the Bears to punt, meaning Wims must wait even longer to retaliate.

After an entire Saints drive where Wims was stewing on the bench for 11 real life minutes, Wims retaliates on the first play of the next drive. He tries to rip CJGJ’s mouthpiece out, but he is unsuccessful. That’s when he decides to throw a punch which... is also unsuccessful.
Javon Wims sat on the bench from ~5:10 to 5:21 CST planning to snatch Chauncey’s mouthpiece back. This is so goddamn hilarious.
he sat on the bench for 11 minutes thinking “he took my mouthpiece so I’m gonna get HIS.”
Then he didn’t even get it and instead threw punches at a helmet.

*puts on tinfoil hat* Maybe Wims didn't punch him to try to hurt him...
Maybe he was trying to dislodge the mouthpiece...

I also want to remind everyone that IMMEDIATELY following the fight the Saints intercepted Foles which led to a crucial field goal.
I think you can definitively say that Chauncey Gardner-Johnson snatching Javon Wims’ chain was the reason the Saints won. https://twitter.com/saints/status/1323043544274247680?s=21 https://twitter.com/saints/status/1323043544274247680

I also love imagining that while the Bears offense is on the sideline going over the game plan and strategies for the next drive while Javon Wims is just sitting there thinking about the mouthpiece like
so @docJ8six points out a possible oversight: was Wims actually successful in getting the mouthpiece?? I can’t tell but it definitely is possible he’s holding it in his left hand while he throws punches
