Mr. WEO

I heard it was more like 140.

He made the same call with the Josh RTP last week.... The ads are sold before the season starts.

exactly....

I read here that some guy said he died last week, or seemed a paraplegic or something.

see above

I was responding to the OPs claim that Hughes was forever targeted. anyway, as they say, holding happens on every play…but only by the other team…

This is a TBD myth, not fact. He ran afoul of the refs in 2014 and 2015 (couldn't keep his mouth shut).. After that, they pretty much left him alone. He had a season with 9 penalties, then nothing significant.

Gabe:

“Josh Norris”….

no Barkley is the one who’s breaking down the defenses for Josh on the sideline Or something

Keenum could win 11 games with this roster or something

on first blush I would have put him in the concussion protocol. But what I would do is beside the point here. I am commenting on how they seem to be defending their decisions, and others’ response to this.

He would have to go to the hospital for that. He had no neuro deficit and was moving appropriately so they sent him back out.

Correct, but for the highest earners, no significant difference than in, say, Buffalo, NY

you are conflating several issues. People are dragging the med staff for missing an obvious concussion. In doing so they are mocking the “back injury” explanation yet also up in arms that no “back exam” was done. There really isn’t such that is significant in the patient I described above. also, you can lecture about the list art of physical exam (it’s certainly not lost in my practice, but thanks for the helpful hints), but no spine or ortho spine doc is going to make a spot diagnosis of any specificity in an acute on chronic injury. Many won’t see a consult until MRI is in erecord for them to view.

You think this is his idea? Combined, for most it's more than that in the US for highest federal/state/local brackets.

You are saying he shouldn't be allowed his day in court for a lawsuit he hasn't filed......

Back injuries are assessed typically with MRI. Few diagnoses are made on physical exam. It's not like an extremity injury. see above

what lawsuit

What “back exam” are people expecting they would have done in the tent? Short of a visible or palpable vertebral subluxation, a player with an intact neuro exam isn’t going to show much on a “back exam”

well as the plaintiff he would have standing

He filed a criminal complaint. The DA will decide whether it would ever go to court, not any judge.

Dr. Omalu recommended that he retire from football.

he absolutely was terrible. 3rd best QB on a bad team if you pick one game for Ryan/Wilson vs the awful body of work by Trubisky, yeah maybe.

He was absolutely terrible Sunday. Completed 7 passes. and int. 3 sacks. He is a massive draft bust.
