Yeah, that's rough. Respect to him for passing advice to the younger players, instead of just fading away. It doesn't need to be anyone's fault, we just know a lot more about concussions and the permanent damage resulting from those injuries than we did even 10 years ago. If I were a young qb, I would value Favre's opinion as much or more than an NFL doctor's recommendation.

Do you understand how hard it is to land every single one of your receivers on the Covid list? That is absolutely 100% their fault if that happened. See every single other team in the league except for the Broncos who were also dumb enough to land all of their quarterbacks on the list.

It’s all about the money, and the players thinking they’re superhuman. The NHL dealt with the face of their league going down with a concussion in 2011, Crosby was hit in the winter classic and was immediately “cleared to return”. He played another game 4-5 days later and took another hit that didn’t even look bad, but because of how fresh his first concussion still was, it ended his season and set him back significantly, he didn’t return to dominance for another 2-3 years following the two concussions, and clearly if he would have sat out 3-4 weeks in the first place, who knows what could have been for Sid. If Mahomes takes one big hit up high just days after an initial concussion, the consequences could be devastating just like Crosby back in 2011. Just ask yourself Patty, is it really worth it?

@Rusty Shackleford My all time favorite Farve game was when he TORCHED the Raiders after his father passed. Even Oakland fans gave him a standing ovation after he just destroyed their team. The ONE and ONLY time Raider fans have shown any class.

[@Lo_649]

It's crazy that there are reports out there saying that it was because of a nerve in his neck that he was woozy on the field after the hit but you have other doctors saying that there is no nerve in the neck that would cause this.

ALSO CONSIDER THIS FACTOR TO ANY DOCTOR ***LIABILITY*** I see younger doctors these days being more afraid to say OK because IF something happens they are afraid of the LEGAL ramifications that may befall them. I am a retired police officer and I see Officer across the country SAY they are afraid to do their job less they will get sued for everything they ever worked for. My doctor friends are MORE concerned about LIABILITY far more than the OLD SCHOOL DOCTOR is .

I had friends who hid their concussions in highschool football and have permanent damage they have to live with before even turning 27.

[@rolandxb3581]

That's horrifying. How does that work exactly? In medical terms

[@BlackOceanSociety]

@@rolandxb3581 When you get a concussion the likelihood that you sustain another one increases. When you have one and you don't take the proper precautions to rest you're susceptible to increasing the severity of that concussion and the damage done to the brain. My friend for example had concussions from playing football before even reaching the highschool level and when he got them he would hide it from our trainers because they would have kept him from playing for 3-4 weeks. By the end of highschool he had mood swing problems, deafness in one ear and experienced vertigo regularly. The ease at which you sustain concussions gets to the point where so much as bumping your head getting out of a car can give you a serious concussion.

@@BlackOceanSociety well even if pat played thru a concussion without fully recovering it's not like he's gonna be at it again next week. The offseason would start for pat so he could properly recover. That hs kid kept playing without reporting his symptoms and conditions and that's what exacerbated his head trauma. That was stupid of him,but he's a kid not a professional athlete.

He never was diagnosed with a concussion tho.

But Mahomes felt great hours later he went into protocol bc it takes 5 days n if he wouldn’t have nfl coulda mandated it then he wouldn’t have cleared in time to play Sunday plus we wanna make sure he’s ok he’s the franchise n we owe 500 mil too him even Andy said on our am radio that if Mahomes wasn’t ok at all Henne will start bc he wouldn’t risk Mahomes for 1 bowl n risk a chance at many more in the future.
