Convenient.

Extremely.

They ****ed up. It's obvious he had a concussion last Sunday. He looked like a boxer about to go down. They know they either goofed or have been caught.

I mean, we could legitimately be talking about "Will Travis Kelce ever play again" after Derwin James did the same shit without getting a flag. And just like Tua, Kelce was the ballcarrier, so it's not like "they missed it", because if you're not watching the ballcarrier, WTF are you looking at? How'd you blow the play dead?

**** the NFL. **** them in their stupid ****ing asses.

They truly are clown shoes.

But mean words draw a flag...pathetic

So if a player is dehydrated during a hot game and gets dizzy he’s out for the game… even if it isn’t concussion-related.

Hell yeah!

Imagine all the scenarios...

The NFL approves.

I believe that an impact to the head is requisite to enter the concussion, Gameday checklist

Every hockey player in the history of skates laughs at Tua...

But the new protocol will simply be "any instability". A WR who runs a dig all the way across the field in hot weather could get winded and get those "flashers" and appear to "have an instability" and BOOM, the team's best receiver is gone.

As mentioned, dehydration could be another.

It's such a phantom thing, like holding, they could conceivably call it at any time.

The announcers would be all "well, we don't see it" but it doesn't matter, because "protocol, player safety" when the reality is that we've seen some pretty egregious noncalls on severe plays, one involving our own HoF TE and other probably ending the career of Tua. Bother egregious...both seen by the officals...neither one flagged.


THAT is an issue.

Right. The protocol will include instability as a no go symptom. The protocol only starts after an impact to the head.

Is this the current one or the new one that comes week 5?

This sure feels like the League found a fall guy.
