Concussion rule proposal (1 Viewer)

[nextyear]

Who thinks that if a player is concussed due to an illegal hit that results in a penalty that the player who committed the illegal hit should be removed from the game until the injured player is cleared to return by the doctor.

Many. They started a thread on it yesterday iirc.

Absolutely not. Benchwarmer gets taken out by *insert star player* on a questionable hit, opposing coach instructs benchwarmer to claim symptoms the entire game to keep star player on the bench. Do you really trust these refs to make the correct call every time in every game?

I’m against that one. Not all concussion hits are intentional

That’s why it would only apply on a flagged hit.

So feed the benchwarmer for several games to get that one hit in order to take out the player on the other team who may or may not be a star player?

Makes sense.

That doesn't fix the problem. The 9er player this weekend could have claimed symptoms for the rest of the game and kept CJG out of the game.

It would only apply on illegal hits and could it possibly make players learn to tackle more correctly

Naw dude. Speaking of such can one of you Who Dats tell me this process. Cook was concused, how do they figure if he plays Monday or is it a specific time to be out. Asking for a friend

It’s hard enough for the defender as it is

Tony Twist or Ty Domi of the NFL, they called them goons in the NHL. Hard pass.

However he responds to the concussion protocol whatever that means. I think it’s an individual by individual basis. Someone like Brandin Cooks who has had a lot might not clear as quickly as someone who rarely has them

Cool beans. My friend thanks

That’s how you get “goons” in football.
