I've seen this sentiment offered several times around this forum tonight, and I totally disagree with it. Educate yourself. He has to be cleared by an independent physician and if the system is rigged, why not put him back in the game today after he got knocked out of it?

Wilson didn't hit him with his helmet and it sure doesn't look like Mahomes's helmet even hit the turf...very strange.

It's just as stupid. 2 1

Canadian Bills Fan Posted January 18, 2021 Posted January 18, 2021 Interesting watch. Doctors take on the Mahomes hit 2 2
Niagara Dude Posted January 18, 2021 Posted January 18, 2021 1 hour ago, whatdrought said: I'm not too proud to say I'd be happy going to the SB because he's out. Fine by me. I'm not proud to say if he does play & is iffy that the Bills go after him early to get him out of the game. They have their Super Bowl and we need ours. Fine by me

Fwiw there doesn’t have to be an “impact” for a player to get concussed - any jarring of the brain within the cranium can cause a concussion. His head snaps forward violently as he’s tackled around his neck, hell, his neck/spinal cord gets flexed over the tacklers arm too. Very violent motion that easily could concuss anyone.

Seems pretty unlikely he plays vs. the Bills.

Joe Montana's career ended by a concussion in a playoff game back in 1993. Jim Kelly's career ended in a concussion as he was lying on the artificial grass as he took a hit from the Jaguars defender

transient Posted January 18, 2021 Posted January 18, 2021 1 minute ago, NoSaint said: he’s got to pass protocol which is a series of tests vs the measured baseline, no? Correct. Administered by independent neurologic/neurosurgical specialists that are not team affiliated, though are typically local and contracted through the league office. Quite often they are affiliated with an academic medical institution. They’re often the same independent specialists that are present on the sidelines. 2
