4merper4mer Posted October 4, 2019 Share Posted October 4, 2019 Our QB has a concussion and obviously the problem is way bigger than just one player. The NFL acts like it cares and we all complain about the lack of penalties, or excessive penalties, or selective enforcement but take a step back and look at the big picture. I think any lawyer worth his salt could put the NFL in serious jeopardy w.r.t. their attitude towards concussions and leading with the head. How? The Los Angeles Rams. Look at their helmet. I'm not sure if everyone has seen nature shows about actual Rams but those things slam their heads together at an alarming rate of speed. How can the NFL reconcile the Rams helmet, which clearly encourages leading with the helmet with their supposed concern for player safety. You could make a case that some other helmets give the illusion of forward motion but the Rams is BLATANT. Don't be surprised if this ends up in a case somewhere. Other, lesser culprits could be seen in the helmets of the: Pats, Bills, Chiefs, Titans, Jags, Eagles, Vikings, Lions, Bucs, Panthers, and Seahawks. 2 2 14 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

4merper4mer Posted October 4, 2019 Author Share Posted October 4, 2019 Just now, CLTbills said: seriously? Have you seen the head shots? Josh got knocked for a loop. The defender often turns their head down at the last moment just like....a ram. The other factor is that so many games are televised and these guys have probably all watched Ram games. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In sports, some of these have violent imagery like Raptors or Sabres, some don't like Jazz or White Sox. That's all good. But the Rams are an animal with one go to move. Head to head contact with a big windup. The teams helmet doubles down on this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is no implied motion on the Colts helmet like there is in some other helmets including ours. I guess it could be debated one way or the other but the Rams is blatant.

I think you should be concerned about the Browns. Not only do you not want to be hit in the head by that stuff, you don't want to step in it either. ? 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess the Bills helmet with the Buffalo on it would qualify as well huh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
