Why would you have a problem with also having conservative rules on the types of hits causing concussions that lead to ejections? If a player launches at an offensive player, goes for a kill shot, leads with their head... they are intentionally going against the NFL's point of emphasis. And when it leads to a concussion, the NFL should have a very conservative standard for what is considered intentional.

College has gone the extra mile on targeting while the NFL has barely enforced it.

And you're still downplaying how big an advantage it is that on one play, the victim team is forced to eject a player while the aggressor team sees a 15 yard penalty at worst. HUGE loophole.
The defender in the Kelce hit went low and turned his body...in what way would that be an intentional hit to the head. How would that be targeting?

I'm downplaying how big of an advantage because it's a stupid point you keep trying to make. Injuries happen in football. As long as a player doesn't look to have intended to injure, then play ball.

Both teams have an offense, and both teams have a quarterback. As long as the concussion rules are enforced equally for both teams, how is it an advantage for one team over the other?

I still don't see how you find this a contradiction, the NFL wants to keep its players on the field as much as possible, for the most entertaining product possible, except where their safety is at risk. That's why they make a guy sit with a concussion, but they don't randomly eject guys who hurt someone with no clear malicious intent.

In the cases of pure malicious intent (the Gronk headshot to White last year, various Burfict hits), I would fully support any player doing that being suspended for a season, or banned for life.

When Clowney decided to lead with the crown of his helmet, he already knew that he was not contributing to the tackle at all, and that Wentz basically down.

He clearly lowers his head and drives the crown of his helmet down, targeting Wentz's head, while also trying to use his forearm and shoulder to impact Wentz's back and shoulder.

It is so clearly a dirty hit. The only real difference between the Clowney hit, and the Ben Davidson hit on Dawson is that Davidson was a second later on his hit because he had to run farther. Neither Clowney nor Davidson were making a football play.

The official's statement after the game is just absolute shit.

If that hit had been perpetrated by Vontaze Burfict, I believe he would have been flagged and probably tossed from the game.

agreed.

The browns were targeting our players Sunday. If they were really serious, the NFL would have kicked them out on the spot.

...but they really don't care.

Kicked who out? How? When did they target our players? Why?




What?

I guess because they tackled somebody.
In a game where one of the biggest plays was a Chief going helmet-first to stop a TD and cause a fumble on the goal line, he should probably leave this alone.

Concussion protocol SHOULD be changed. These are grown men making huge money, even at the league minimum. They also know the risks of repeated concussions. Maybe let them make the decision to play or not.

Multiple sources now have confirmed Mahomes only missed one question.

One question, that he probably just forgot the answer to, almost cost us the game.

Shit ****ing sucks.

Unfortunately, that won't work in our society.

Allowing them to make that decision doesn't indemnify the team or the NFL if the player does something later in life that affects their family.

True.

How about eliminating helmets? You won't see defenders leading with their exposed head, that's for sure.

No we'll just see more deaths and broken necks.

It's only one question, he seems ok.

That's actually not one of the questions.
