I guess what should happen is suspension for lieing to his doctors! ad hominem. incorrect oversimplification. it does not matter what the injured player claims about the state of his injury. the current policy takes into account that players may very well either BS or be unaware of how injured they are. "If the spotter stops the game, the player will be forced to sit out at least one play while undergoing a concussion test. Neither team will be charged with a timeout, but time will stop for a medical timeout." http://www.cbssports.com/nfl/news/new-nfl-rule-gives-concussion-spotters-power-to-stop-games/ http://operations.nfl.com/the-game/gameday-behind-the-scenes/atc-spotters/ whatsherface's comment cast doubt on the effectiveness of these injury spotter guys and that its all just a big charade to keep the ongoing concussion settlement thing at bay as much as possible. The BS excuses about Newton on September 9 against Denver were fucking hilarious. Surprise, surprise 3 weeks later Newton has (another) concussion. This is why i like "paying attention to outcomes". i'll leave the lazy, open-ended, sloppy ad hominems to you. in this area you could improve the precision of your thinking. regarding NFL operations in general it helps to keep in mind that most adults are liars. Once again, SportsNet's "Tim & Sid" take on this thing closely reflects my view. | ||

I think we still have some room for improvement on the O-Line, but we need to get a RB asap to help White. The pats picked up Gisilee and Burkhead who although not blount force trauma types can run between the tackles and are much better all around backs who can block and catch passes and run outside etc. For that matter last time he left he came back mid season anyways. | ||

Sharpfootball has them #1 and #2 in two of their proprietary stats: Numberfire has them as the two most efficient backs from last year: They are #1 and #2 rbs in FootballOutsiders' rushing DVOA from last year: [http://www.footballoutsiders.com/stats/rb] The Pats' offensive line isn't great at run blocking so expect their numbers to dip this year, but they should both be upgrades to Blount. | ||

filled with honest coaches like Double "B" running New England. i don't even know why the IRS audits their financials. They should just trust these wonderful billionaires to pay their fair share. why do they even need a concussion protocol? LOL. o ya, i forgot, to cover their legal asses.
