Football Tua's concussions are a bad look for the league - Page 2

treeguy27 · 12-27-2022, 03:22 PM

The Dolphin's bumbling of Tua's concussions earlier this year and him ending up in the protocol again is getting a lot of run in the mainstream media, not just sports media. It's a black eye for the league and I expect a big over correction from the NFL next year. I won't be surprised if they do a major overhaul on the protocol. I can see a scenario where they make players sit out multiple games after any concussion symptoms, even if they test out okay. It's going to suck when teams are majorly impacted because of it. It's going to be a shitshow and we can thank the Dolphins for it because of their incompetent staff.

I am not being sarcastic, put flags on QB's or a pressure sense pad for when a defenders hands hit them.

Having a vagina does not make you less tough. Women have a higher pain threshold than men, and most men would cry like bitches during childbirth.

I think it would be great if we had to focus on more than just the star 5 players on each team.

A deep hungry bench would make hallmark movies.

Sit the battered.

How many QBs have missed playing time this year due to concussions?

With legalized betting on almost everything football, the NFL doesn't care beyond protecting the owners and the multi-billion dollar advertising and revenue they get from the fans. Tua wasn't wanted by the current management in Miami and this gives them an excuse (ie. reason) to dump him for medial reasons.
