NBA OFF TOPIC THREAD

People still arguing this after the NFLPA fired that Doctor?

Blaming on "Karens" apparently. Head injuries are for pussies.

If Kyrie ever got a bad concussion like Tua did would he ever play again?

The hit was harder, but I still think the whiplash effect of the first hit was worse.



EDIT: ahh, NFL blocked their content

If you really think the impact of the hit against the Bills is greater than that of the Bengals, I'd delete your account now.

You post what you have for dinner everyday. Don't worry about us having a conversation on concussions.

PJ Walker could get the starting job then....because Baker hasn't played well and Rhule is on the hot seat.

According to Rhule, he never considered pulling Baker. I wonder if that was because he didn't have Darnold available?

I think he made a mistake starting Baker over Darnold. Not that Darnold is necessarily better. But he was already familiar with the offense and his weapons.

Based on reports, Baker picked up the offense pretty quickly. But it's a much shorter training camp, so there isn't the time to learn and develop timing with his teammates.

There was a weird momentum that built up behind giving Baker the starting job that seemed to be based on the belief that he wouldn't handle not being named the starter as well as Darnold would, so Rhule went with that.

Fair enough.

I mean..I doubt atlanta runs for 220 yards with Myles out there. His poor off field choice led to that.

Fortunately they are still in first. A lot of football to play.

could even argue losing Clowney hurts more in the run game.

Agree far from over.

I've seen both....think what you said is kooky talk IMO.

I like kooky but not on those levels. Always love the words used for a fight. Couple are in there (brouhaha and I think kerfuffle). I'd add melee and fracas.

wood also include hoodwinked.

The two hits were in no way identical. Tua had just threw a pass and was in the air when a LB pushed him which caused him to fall to the ground and bump his helmet into the ground. Thursday's hit was far brutal. Saying both hits were similar is completely inaccurate.

I am not going to say the Thursday hit was less severe.

It wasn’t.

However, on the Thursday hit, he appeared to take the brunt of it on his shoulder and back. Yes, his head made forceable contact with the turf.

But, it did seem to me like the head trauma from the hit against the Bills as as great or greater because of the whiplash effect.

Looks like USC flipped a 4 star OL from the Domers.
