BillsFan130 Posted October 6 Share Posted October 6 (edited) This was exactly my point when people were criticizing McDaniel for letting Tua come back in in that 2022 game against the Bills Every coach in the NFL is going to put their QB back in if he "clears" protocol. It's that simple Edited October 6 by BillsFan130 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dillenger4 Posted October 6 Share Posted October 6 Sheesh - I thought he had a concussion for the whole game. He couldn't hit a transport truck with is throws all day in the first half. Brutal! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LABILLBACKER Posted October 6 Share Posted October 6 7 minutes ago, NC-billsfan! said: 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. Completely agree...Josh may have said it was his chest but that was a substantial head impact. Our last for winning sometimes clouds our judgement. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4th&long Posted October 6 Share Posted October 6 Yeah, I trust some random fan on a message board to make a medical judgement of a game he’s watching on tv. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jerome007 Posted October 6 Share Posted October 6 Hey, I sure thought he hit his head and had a concussion. But he not only cleared the protocol, he looked normal afterwards, playing or interviews. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billrooter Posted October 6 Share Posted October 6 34 minutes ago, Matt_In_NH said: 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. In the Bills defense, Tua did a hell of a wabble when he got back to his feet, I did not see that today with Allen did you? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrags Posted October 6 Share Posted October 6 Just now, Matt_In_NH said: You mean after he came to? You missed my joke. But in seriousness, he came to quickly after he got up and seemed fine. Was walking and running on the sideline pretty well. Tua is still wobbling from his concussion weeks ago. That’s the difference imo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alphadawg7 Posted October 6 Share Posted October 6 He could be heard saying it was his chest, not head. Just cuz you hit your head doesn’t mean you get a concussion. 1 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beast Posted October 6 Share Posted October 6 (edited) Some people are really upset that a legitimate question is being asked. I don’t understand why. My bet is he did get his bell rung. Allen doesn’t stay down like that because of his chest. Edited October 6 by Beast 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was a back injury. Josh did what most players instinctively know to do….stay down until you are more stable. It happens all the time if you are looking in nfl games. My beef is with the internet concussion experts who think they know what is good for everyone not on the bills but they don’t say jack when it is Josh Allen. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ed_Formerly_of_Roch Posted October 6 Share Posted October 6 Immediately when Allen was first on the ground, he was pointing to his chest. Yes he hit his head, but players hit their heads almost every play so saying he had a concussion is a leap here. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
