I can understand the players' frustration. As a fan, I get frustrated when someone can't play. But we're talking about a guy's BRAIN. Maybe there should be a bit more precaution taken as compared to some other injuries?

Are you suggesting that a player who fails the protocol test should be forced to not play even if they want to continue?

They also said that defensive players are starting to talk in code about it being worth getting a fine to knock opposing players out of games because it's easier with this protocol.

How would the player be able to make a proper decision anyway? He has a brain injury.

One moment the players say 'it's a violent game, we know the risks ... let us play!' The next they are joining a lawsuit to sue the NFL for some kind of head trauma they say they incurred while playing in the NFL. make up your minds

He mentioned some of the colts players talking about the "stingers" they got Charles with. I'm guessing stingers is now code for knocking guys out of games.

The colts definitely started trying to take shots in the 2nd half against us.

I'm still of the belief that in the near future rookies entering the NFL are going to be forced to either sign a waiver protecting the league from lawsuits relating to all future harm that may befall them in the league, or don't play in the league.

I can't say whether or not the protocol itself is proper or effective--I'm not a doctor. I'm assuming they know something. But if a guy hurts his knee and the sideline doctor says he thinks there may be damage and there's risk of greater injury--do you let the guy back in the game even if he says he'll play through the pain? Of course not.

The Eagles radio man on Sirius said that officials have been told to protect the big name qbs at ALL cost in the playoffs.
