Mr. WEO

dunce trifecta

Put Daniels on that Offense (no skill position players) and he may look like Caleb Williams...

who?

no, this is the data.

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9980188/: ":These data suggest no difference in head kinematics data (PLA, PAA and total impacts) when GCs are worn. This study suggests GCs are not effective in reducing the magnitude of head impacts experienced by NCAA Division I American football players." https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5634228/:"The Guardian Cap failed to significantly improve the helmets' ability to mitigate impact forces at most locations. Limited evidence indicates how a reduction in GSI would provide clinically relevant benefits beyond reducing the risk of skull fracture or a similar catastrophic event." https://www.helmet.beam.vt.edu/football-helmet-add-ons.htmls. "Moreover, the effectiveness of these add-ons can vary significantly depending on the helmet model. The helmet model itself is crucial as it sets the baseline level of protection. While helmet shell add-ons can enhance a helmet's performance, it's important to note that a poor-performing helmet with an add-on may not perform as well as a high-performing helmet without an add-on. It's also important to note that the reductions in accelerations and star scores are specific to the impact conditions used in our tests. As not everyone experiences these same impacts, individual risk will vary from the averages presented here. It must be stressed that regardless of the helmet or add-on used, any player can still sustain a concussion. Our results represent average risks across the football player population for a given head impact exposure and should not be interpreted as absolute risk measurements for individual players." It's safe to say the data are not overwhelmingly in favor of these things. The clinical data is minimal---most likely because the number of witnessed concussions (the only way to document them) is, given the sheer number of participants at every level and the almost infinite number of collisions experienced by them in a lifetime, small. And with so few players at any level using them (particularly in the NFL, where they essentially are unused in games), there can be no meaningful conclusion drawn form such miniscule sample sizes.

if these caps did all that, every school district in the country would mandate them for liability reasons alone. Yet they don’t. Nor do colleges. Forget the pros. If players/parents/programs/schools felt that theses caps might get them to zero concussions, of course they would mandate them. clearly they don’t believe in their purported effectiveness. CTE results from a an entire life experience of countless small cranial impact/deceleration events. Most pros who will display neuro deficits in the future—their fate was sealed before they were drafted.

3-0. Ravens free fall Vikes just wrote the book on shutting down Texans Offense Rodgers career will end v Bills

there is really no way that any piece of equipment “eliminates concussions”. I don’t doubt that parent feel more comfortable that they are doing something. wear in college or even high school are these being widely used?

it hasn’t really been shown, clinically, that wearing these things will actually lower incidence of concussion or post career disorders. Theres nothing stopping owners for adding any type of bonus to a contract. None of them do for wearing these things therefore they don’t believe they would protect their investment

App’s working fine. .ca?

like Prime (without the CB coverage skills)

Owners aren't here to give out extra money, that's for sure. This was covered multiple times in several posts upstream. Scroll up.

fixed

players aren’t interested, bizarrely

players are considered employees of the team. of course any player can be cut at any time for any reason or no reason at all. I’ve acknowledged this multiple times already. “The NFL” can’t fire him. If cut, any team can sign him.

the cumulative effects of Morses concussions are likely no different, in regard to his future neurological health,than Tua’s. We’ve seen few other “fencing” posturing events with other players concussed, yet the results later in life aren’t different. Based on all that is known about CTE, there is no difference. Therefore it makes little sense to say that Morses countless concussions are very different than Tuas 2 big hits witnessed on TV

CTE?

a couple maybe. Everyone else was happy to have him back. Which is my point

where were the calls for Morse to retire…after he was back in the lineup?

Beane needs to deliver a roster that's built for rainy weather.

i did. see my above post.

7 more years on the lease. Plus, this wouldn't count as a "move" ,as they would still be the KC Chiefs. It's like Kraft using Connecticut to squeeze out a new stadium in Foxboro.

I feel bad for this kid. He isn't built for the pro game.

I know...they never tested Poyer, right??

you really think Jerry Jones, who would kill to see a team out of San Antonio would allow for "The Dallas Chargers"? come on... The Chargers are paying a rent of one dollar a year! Why on earth are they going to move? what would be the point of moving the Chiefs across the border? To...where? I don't get it. Chargers moved because the owner didn't want to spend on a stadium. The Rams left St. Louis because they wouldn't build a new stadium. So you think this is a natural match? lol.....
