Somebody on social media posted a GIF this morning that showed him going "out" before he hit the ground.

At first people loved the fun wisecrack nature of mike McDaniel. But his newness is starting to show. He’s gotta read the room better. People don’t want to know if tua CAN play or is minimally cleared to, they want to know if he SHOULD play. Yesterday the team seemed intent on letting everyone know he’s fine and he’s lucid. That’s not what everyone wants to hear. People want to know that the team is taking this very seriously and it doesn’t look like they did until today when they had no choice. And even still it almost feels like they’re doing it out of obligation and without a whole lot of urgency.

Future lawsuits have considerably more evidence

To be honest, and without knowing specifics , he should be on cognitive rest. I know in my experience, treating high school athletes with concussions, they initially aren’t even allowed to go to school. They shouldn’t be on devices, they shouldn’t be doing homework, they shouldn’t be watching TV. They should be spending most of their time in dark quiet rooms.

The Dolphins tampered to go after Brady and probably/allegedly attempted to induce Flores to tank.

How any of you institutional ballwashers could give the Phins the benefit of the doubt is beyond me.

I think he probably DID pass the test. And I'd be surprised if the test wasn't properly administered.

I just think it MIGHT expose a small hole in the net. But the more you try to make this a 'judgment call' issue, the more you're going to open the door to criticism when someone gets pulled out by a judgment call during a playoff game or something.

The league should probably tread lightly here. They have made HUGE strides and I honestly think what they've put in place is sufficient. If the rules were followed, I don't think they should tinker with it too much.
Yeah. That’s a pretty decent take. If there has been 1000 protocols, which is low. If there (was) 256 regular season games. If it’s been 7 years that’s 2000 games. And he’ll that Indy playoff game there were like 5 of them.

But let’s say there have been 1000 protocols. If Sunday was the first concussion the protocol missed, that’s a 99.9% efficacy rate. FDA is clearing a medication at that efficacy rate.

And the reality is yes. It ****ing blows. It’s super compounded by the shit he ate yesterday, without question. But if that is legitimately the only miss, that’s not worth screwing with. Yeah it’s callus. Yeah it sucks but the reality is you can’t effectively legislate the violence out.

Dolphins were wrong in this situation but it’s also true that Tua is a broke dick… can’t stay healthy.

Pretty much what my neurologist said , screen are the worst thing , brain beds rest dark room and rest.

Any chance that the "back injury" designation was to avoid the concussion protocol entirely?
