    What's worse, this commercial or asshole NFL players protesting the national anthem of a country that allows them the freedom to make millions... on 9/11

    :clap: But in this case, I'd prefer them forget over making light of the horrific event

    I think the stack of mattresses are the towers, and the Muslim looking guys are knocking them over

    Helmet to helmet does not need to cause a concussion to get called. But from what I saw sitting at home, I'd wager he had a concussion. He laid on the ground for a while, and was obviously struggling to focus after getting up.

    That would result in at least 20 penalties a game. It is impossible to eliminate helmet to helmet contact in a football game. When Newton got sacked, the defender was face to face with him. He didn't lower his helmet during the sack. It was incidental contact. Running backs get incidental hits in the helmet all the time, but nothing is called. Why treat quarterbacks differently? QBs and WRs are treated differently. That is the problem. The NFL is making it clear that the health of certain players is more important than that of other players. When we add in the inconsistent rulings made on the field, we get valid charges of favoritism and discrimination. If NFL policy is to protect the health of QB's and WR's more than the health of other players, then the NFL is a big pile of hypocrisy. They're setting themselves up for endless lawsuits. exactly. The repeated small hits the RB takes over the course of a game are just as damaging(if not more) long term as the one or two big hits the QB/WR take It's all for show

QBs and WRs are treated differently. Knowing what I do about concussions, I think the gameplay will have to change or the game will die. I already see the effects at the youth level, less kids playing now will lead to a lower level of talent making it to the NFL eventually. Many parents tell us concussions are a big reason their kid is playing basketball or baseball instead of football. Repeated small hits do just as much long term damage as one big concussion causing hit.

    Just week 1, or are they "letting them play"? Some blatant offensive holds that were not called, a number of helmet to helmet hits on Newton not called.... The helmet to helmet hits have to be called. Every hold should not be called, but ones that have an obvious effect on the success of a play should be called.

    That's what Alex has, iirc. I hope your wife will be okay. wow, just found this... Seeing what it does to my wife, amazed he could do what he did. Also gives me hope to know it can get better with treatment
