He should be suspended no doubt.

The whole point of these protocols was to take the decision out of the team's hands. I think the league has tougher questions to answer here.

The coach chooses who plays and who doesn’t.

He has blood on his hands no matter what

Absolutely. He had to be cleared by team doctors employed by the team and the NFL.

McDaniel got clearance from both so he started the player, still some shoulder some blame though.

Why the frank would they rush him back to the franking Thursday night game, a franking away game, with a 3-0 record?

He’s their franchise QB, and they may have ended his career, to play the franking Bengals?


People need to be fired.

At the very least the "independent" neurologist that let him back in the game Sunday

I mean, the fact they even have NFL teams play two games in a 4 day span is criminal enough as it is.

If we are going to go down this alley

If Tua had a concussion last week, won’t it show up on any CT Scan or whatever test they run on his dome at the hospital?

It's bullpoop, they tried to say it was his back when normally if a player wobbles and falls like that from a head injury they aren't allowed back in the game regardless if they clear protocol or not. They circumvented the rules and now he's got a way more serious injury.

Everyone should be furious because if it happens there it can happen anywhere.

Yeah that’s right. Like a stroke

Embarrassing how the tv crew isn’t mentioning Sunday at all.

What would you like, they stop the broadcast and bring in John Stossel to do an expose?

Twitter is mentioning it. Not often something is unanimous there.

Medical review on tonight, also has one from Sunday. Worth the watch.

That actually would be cool, so…yes?

Yesss!

Update on Tua, he’s fine. Said to have severe turf toe. Would’ve been available had this game gone to OT

Here’s what a coach who actually gives a poop about his players does

Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa fire someone! One of our grossly overpaid athletes is hurt whaaaaa!

These men make obscene amounts of money. Asking them to do extreme things to earn those 9 figure paydays is not awful. It's not cruel. It's not too much. It's the price they pay for the life they choose (obviously the best line from the Godfather series). People like Tua get to live as demigods on planet Earth. For that they play a brutal sport that can debilitate them. Let's hope he's feeling well and able to earn himself a few hundred million dollars and more fame and glory than he already has.

You both keep bringing up years of control but for either one of those trades and the assets given in the Sabres situation I would hope a long-term contract would be in place so that stuff pretty much goes out the window.
- Buff36

Debrincat, NO CHANCE of a deal at the time of the trade. Just cant extend 2 years out.
Robertson, you dont make the deal without a long term deal in place...that option exists since he is a RFA in need of a new deal.

36, Your questiom was asked and answered by several pointing out tje difference. If you don't accept that difference, ok. Your right to do so. But why keep asking why?

Probably not, chance you take. Like I said though I would hope a extension was in place before giving up those assets.

Tough to do in merely a couple of days time.

What are the chances Miami trades for Brady now?

Because 3 months ago this team wasn't ready to make a splash by some people's account. It's a evaluation year- money needs to be saved for are own- we need to see what are players can do. But all of a sudden we are ready to do it and give up are 1st and multiple pieces to get it done. When we could have gotten a very good player at probably half of what it will cost now. And yes there's a chance Debrincat walks, but there's also a chance he signs or you recoup atleast a 1st and prospect.

Why would Bucs trade him?

How many future 1st round picks would you have to trade for 1 year of Brady?

I have no clue what it would take, depends on how long the yacht trip is and what the suspended owner is willing to do.

It would keep the circus that is the Dolphins organization in the spotlight, and with those recievers, they could be the team to beat. Could also help distract from the mess they created with Tua.

Does Brady make it through the year ?
