WhitewalkerInPhilly Posted October 12, 2022 Share Posted October 12, 2022 Let's be honest, at this point Tua getting smacked on the forehead with a ping pong ball might concuss him again. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heres a question... If this was Allen how would you all feel about him being out this week after seeing multiple doctors and cleared through protocol? I would have wanted him pulled in the Miami game and not played on Thursday... Tua is where Tua is though and those things happened. If it were Allen would you want him playing this week? I think I would. He has cleared after seeing multiple doctors. I think there is a non public thing going around the NFL to be more cautious though. Look at McKenzie last week. I've never seen a player make it all the way to 5th stage of protocol and just needing the final ok from the team/independant and still not cleared to play. I also think Miami got hosed getting Bridgewater pulled last week. I like the new rule but I knew someone was going to get screwed. Ironically it was Miami and it happened right away.

Airseven Posted October 15, 2022 Share Posted October 15, 2022 1 minute ago, Beck Water said: One kind of wonders what was going on with Tua for all that. A couple things: -what seems to be consecutive concussions w/ significant symptoms and the precautionary measures that may be added on top of routine treatments in this instance. -also, the visibility, media coverage, and politics that hover over this entire charade and the team’s main priority not to be penalized or questioned again.

Last time I looked, both teams played equally in a blizzard. Since there is such a huge discrepancy with heat between sidelines there should be permanent shelter or dug out. At the game, the field crew or Bills people were moving around these ridiculously small sun shades to keep the Bills players from getting heat stroke. This seems like a player safety issue for only one of the teams, the visitors. Edited October 19, 2022 by ExiledInIllinois 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
