I’m sure that’s had to be done already. I’m interested to see if the whip tackle gets penalized or a fine. That tackle is dangerous because of the force the head has against the ground. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

They took a scan of his head. Nothing showed up. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Right. You're supposed to tackle him nice and slow so he can get the pass off while you do.

Tua's going to have a short career.

That just seems strange to me. How could you rule out 100% that the stumbling and falling isn't neurological in that short of an amount of time like we saw on Sunday?

The pessimist in me says that this is going to screw us over somehow. Something like new impact sensors in helmets being quickly introduced that can flag a concussive impact occurring and Mahomes is going to drop his helmet on the sidelines and trigger it and get pulled out of the superbowl or something.

Soon as the doc left this guy called someone who I presumed was a loved one, broke down sobbing like a baby and told whomever on the other end that he was at the hospital and the doctor told him he had an untreatable cancer and that he was really scared. The person on the other end was all wailing like wtf?!?! It was nuts. Point being dudes egg was beyond scrambled yet carried on a convo with the doctor like they were catching up at TGIFridays. |

I don't know, I think sensors in helmets might actually be a good idea for long term health.
If it can reduce CTE, wouldn't that be a good thing? I've also wondered if they couldn't come up with a helmet that absorbs more force. Helmets prevents skull fractures but they don't provide as much cushioning as some people think. Yea, bubble helmets would look silly for a season and then everyone would totally get used to them and maybe impacts from head hitting ground could be reduced.

Next time the opposing team does a tombstone piledriver on Mahomes 5 seconds after he throws the ball there won’t be a flag but he’ll be removed for concussion protocol.

You can't. That's why when Mahomes had a NECK injury but displayed outward signs of a concussion, they held him out.

Idk. Is there a neck/spine condition that can mimic a concussion? Re-watching both incidents has me questioning how significant the head impact was. 2nd incident looks like he threw himself backwards. Made no attempt to brace himself... almost like he was going limp before he hit the ground.
