JakeFrommStateFarm Posted October 6 Share Posted October 6 It was pretty clear that when his head hit the ground on the sack he got a concussion. It's the NFLs concussion protocol a joke ? 5 5 6 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt_In_NH Posted October 6 Share Posted October 6 Yeah I remember all the criticism of the dolphins for putting him back out there and the bills “would never do something like that”. yea the concussion system is a joke, it is easily gamed by the players. 4 1 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be fair, Josh was able to move his own limbs, and count to 1 on the sideline. That’s why he was allowed back out there. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doc Posted October 6 Share Posted October 6 I'm assuming...he wasn't concussed. Didn't sound concussed in the post-game presser. 4 3 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ProcessImproverMan Posted October 6 Share Posted October 6 Allen pointed to his chest and independent medical staff cleared him. He also didn't seem off afterwards. Ill trust he didn't have one 5 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr.Sack Posted October 6 Share Posted October 6 He got a micro concussion. Saw stars. Got smelling salts and got to go back in. That’s a mild injury. 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's the NFLs concussion protocol a joke ? Clear to whom? Are you by any chance a neurologist? Hitting the ground with your head does not automatically cause a concussion. Compare the reactions of Tua and Josh and you will see the difference. Edited October 6 by DrW 1 3 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His head hit the ground hard and he was down for several minutes. Why else would Trubisky have to come in ? 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's the NFLs concussion protocol a joke ? I love the kid. This was a league and team failure. He will never protect himself, he’s all in. The Bills and NFL must protect their players. Plus he’s our Josh, no way the city of Buffalo wants to use him and spit him out. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bills6969 Posted October 6 Share Posted October 6 I don’t believe for a second that it wasn’t a concussion. It most definitely was. It likely was minor enough that he was able to hide the symptoms. 2 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TonyBeets Posted October 6 Share Posted October 6 I'm pretty certain Josh was concussed. He passed the protocol and they allowed him back out. Josh is too tough for his own good. He is also too smart for his own good. So passing a protocol despite being concussed should not come as a surprise. 2 1 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
