Mr. WEO

no one is in denial of the risks now....and no one won't be looking back in the future as though this wasn't discussed/known/addressed, which is what you were implying---"it's going to be funny 20 years from now when this issue is taken far more seriously than it is now". No, they aren't. Also, the number of players who wore them is so miniscule and the time they wore them for was negligible that no conclusion on the effect of these caps in the NFL can even be guessed at.

denial of...what, exactly? there's no chance that a thin helmet padding supplement will save the vast majority of the players who are destined to suffer from such illnesses. Certainly the players don't think so. also, the concussion protocols are, by definition, after the fact. they can't prevent future concussions.

remember when Diggs "had a burning desire to win"? yeah...

Reports today are Woody is admitting he spoke to Rodgers the night before the firing. Rodgers is just the worst. The players, particularly on Defense, were tired of no accountability for the awful Offense week after week. They we turning on Saleh. Saleh was an awful choice from day 1. He absolutely should have been fired after last season. He's a very bad gameday HC. The argument that, at 2-3, they may be playing for "1st place in the division" is more an indictment on how bad the AFCE has started off this year. No one can seriously look at this Jets team and say they are playoff bound this year and therefore should keep Saleh. The Jets Offense stinks on ice. It's clear Rodgers has no respect for his HC (same for his last 2). He doesn't even try to hide it. That's a death knell for a scrub like Saleh. Even for a geriatric trust fund baby like Woody Johnson, the math here is easy. He figures it's this year with Rodgers or bust---and he rightly sees keeping Saleh as dooming the Jets to another 7-8 win season. he's not wrong in assuming "anyone but this guy" going forward is his team's best chance.

You draft a top 3 QB pick to start as a rookie. that's how it's done. this team isn't going to be better for him in another year.

no no no...he just got the "wind knocked out of him"--many medical experts right here on TBD made that clear! well, at least McD didn't claim it was a "back injury". everyone knows that means "concussion", amirite? what's going to be funny 20 years from now? anyway, every player clearly understands the risks of playing tackle football---now more than at any time in the league's history. No one can claim "we didn't know any better". A player's ONLY method of avoiding neurological injury that may affect them in the short and long terms, is to not choose not to play. They are free to make they choices, fully informed.

Mike Dabol, lol anyway. Saleh is a solid DC with a stacked roster. Bills don’t have that. Sort of like “Mike Dabol” in Giants

Get paid like a WR2/3

true but it was limited to NY teams

it’s Jim Dolan. Not even close

ok Coach McDermott

Exactly. Dungy squandered all star Colts rosters. One ring with Peyton Manning. So many one and dones. lol.

lol poor old Tony chiming in. He was fired despite 4 playoff appearances in 5 years in Tampa…and he can’t figure out why Saleh (20 wins in 4 years ) is getting canned after another chaotic start. I can’t figure out why anyone would think blowing this roster in another whole season with this clown would be a better choice. He was on the hottest seat the past 2 years. They had to can him. Who’s going to do worse? He’s awful. Hugh Jackson could win 8 games with this team

nah....Babich is already looking over his shoulder and will not go near the bus after games. takes an Uber..

only if they already have a loaded Defense

It's at least 5 games too late... At least this is evidence that Woody has at least half a brain.

why does that matter? it's another reason to can him, really. maybe he could go to another team in the division even.

this guy was a bad pick from day 1. wasn't much of a receiver in college. bum.

That's all Beane signs...

he was evaluated by an independent neurologist?? when? addition by subtraction.

Losing to the Jets should be a fireable offense for McD.

I have. It's not what we see in that clip.

we all saw the video, including you doc. no need to ask Josh what the video plainly shows us. "how he landed" was with his head bouncing off the turf. you can't see someone not get a concussion (he was out by the way)--getting the wind knocked out of you doesn't make you temporarily motionless prone...

It's mystifying McD still has his excuse makers out there. He's a well documented gameday rockhead.
