If not healed then the 2nd one is way worse What would have stopped him from playing last night if he didn’t go back 8n to the Bills game?

SlimShady'sSpaceForce Posted September 30, 2022 Share Posted September 30, 2022 (edited) So McDoofus said seeing people get hurt / injured was not something he signed up for. OBVIOUSLY 🙄 he and the Fish have no issues with watching the opponents suffer from heat stroke. This decision is on HIM and Tua for pretending he was OK to play Quote Dolphins HC Mike McDaniel: Tua Tagovailoa suffered concussion, expected to be discharged from hospital Thursday night Edited September 30, 2022 by SlimShady'sSpaceForce 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This was my thought after hoping Tua will be ok. No way will those go unnoticed by players. Where would you rather play: Buffalo where the team exercises caution around injuries or Miami where it’s a win at all costs and that includes your well being?

RiotAct Posted September 30, 2022 Share Posted September 30, 2022 this whole situation reminds me of North Korean state media or something. ”Our dear leader suffered a very slight back injury, he will valiantly travel back with his team tonight on a jet airplane!!!

Whilst I appreciate the point what was known about Doyle’s fitness when we put him on the field late on? At what point did he pick up the torn ACL?

Yeah, he might have still played if he passed concussion protocol throughout the week. It seems likely that he would have, whether it was legitimate or not. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coldfronts Posted September 30, 2022 Share Posted September 30, 2022 (edited) The blame lies squarely on the NFL. If congress gets involved it's their own fault for not taking thier own protocol seriously. Lip service and platitudes about head injury is not going to cut it . All they're really worried about is dollars and it's apparent Edited September 30, 2022 by Coldfronts 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuffaloRebound Posted September 30, 2022 Share Posted September 30, 2022 I’d like to think McDermott wouldn’t have allowed Tua to play thursday or go back into game on sunday. Downside of hiring a boy coach trying to prove to world he’s worthy of the job. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJS Posted September 30, 2022 Share Posted September 30, 2022 One of the former players in the post-game said he got a concussion and was able to BS his way through the protocol and get back on the field. Another teammate pulled him out and told the coaches he wasn't right and shouldn't be playing. If you can BS your way through the protocol, obviously it is not good enough. They need to determine without any doubt that they do not have a concussion. Scan their brain or something. There has to be more concrete ways of determining this. What the player says or does shouldn't be a factor. Take it out of their hands. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaggersEOD Posted September 30, 2022 Share Posted September 30, 2022 7 hours ago, transient said: With everything they’ve put out about the “no-go” criteria, I think the only way he could have been cleared to return is if he never actually entered the concussion protocol in the first place. Exactly this. The issue is, he was never e v a l’d for a concussion after the hit, on the sidelines. They walked him right into the locker room and probably gave him smelling salts until he came to. They told the “independent neurosurgeon” that he had a back injury which the Doctor cleared him of. There is no way he passed a concussion e v a l. They didn’t do one because they called it something else. Is there a way to confirm with the game footage out there? Can we see him going to a tent to be evaluated?

skibum Posted September 30, 2022 Share Posted September 30, 2022 Why is everyone so certain that Tua was concussed on Sunday? I have had back pain that has literally knocked me to my knees, and I have never been tackled by a 300 lb man. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He had no back pain issue on injury report. Now he gets hit and severely concussed four days later. Add it up. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wjag Posted September 30, 2022 Share Posted September 30, 2022 (edited) So YOLO, reading the title, what's a "concession" protocol? Is that when he decides to leave the game? 🙂 or should it be a "confession protocol" where he admits he was concussed? 🙂 Edited September 30, 2022 by wjag Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it’s because, after hitting his head on Sunday, he looked like he had funnel-shotted a handle of Jack Daniels. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
