I am calling it for concussions only because for other player injuries, the player makes a choice whether to sit out. Brett Favre played practically on a broken ankle against the saints. I never said take out the other teams qb. I said that the defender causing the concussion should sit out for as long as the qb he knocked out is in protocol. |

Sideline concussion assessment is a medical tool, with medical standards. It is conservative for a reason, and this applies to multiple sports It is better to sit someone without a concussion than to allow a player to return with one, so the test is designed to capture all concussions (True positives) at the risk of also having some test positive without a concussion (false positive). If you aim to reduce the number of false positives you begin to create false negatives. |
