Arena The Official NFL Discussion Thread (Now Featuring Time's Person of the Year, Taylor Swift!)

The NFL created the Injury Report as a direct result of a Point Shaving Scandal that likely could have impacted the result of the 1946 NFL Championship Game. The league has fined teams who have failed to fully disclose injuries on the Injury Report (such as the New York Jets for failing to disclose Brett Favre's shoulder injury).

And more importantly, the league instituted the Concussion Protocol because they were facing a Class Action Lawsuit from former players and their estates for covering up information on the severity of concussions (even going as far as hiring a rheumatologist as a "concussion expert"). It should be noted that the Patriots are already a repeat offender.

yes the Patriots are repeat offenders, all other 29 teams follow every rule to the letter.

 

31 teams.

 

I wasn't counting the 2 New York teams. YOUR DEAD TO ME!

 

I'm pretty sure she is making that up.....

Blount is an Eagle.

 

No, really. She doesn't know how to diagnose a concussion. This is a bunch of BS imo.

 

Wrong again my friend. Stop being a homer. face it, shady Brady and the Belicheat are up to their old antics again. I think another 4 game suspension, loss of draft picks and a hefty fine is in order.

 

Maybe it was in the Super Bowl? Might explain that first half score.

 

Vin, old friend, I see your leading the Patriot hater mob again.

 

Yes, vin's a hater because he's pointing out the following rules:

Also, the Concussion Protocol: http://operations.nfl.com/updates/f...ce-new-policy-to-enforce-concussion-protocol/

It's not like these are easily checkable or anything...

 

it so nice that you all are so concerned about Tom Brady's health, But I guess no cares cares about Cam Newton who took devastating hits early last year and played on without being checked for a concession. OR could it be that you only want witch-hunts when the Patriots are involved?

 

Nope, we all expressed concern about Cam last year (and the ridiculousness the refs weren't calling some of those hits) -- and if it comes out the Panthers were fibbing too, I'd want them to be punished as well.

Except the Panthers don't have a history of trying to cheat for competitive advantage, as far as I am aware... the Patriots do!

 

AH Yes, the Patriots are the Donald Trumps of the NFL, everyone's favorite buggyman to hate.
the real reason is the Panthers don't have a history of winning that's why no one gives a damn when they cheat.

 

No politics in the NFL thread please.

 

can we have no VIN in the NFL thread Please!

Well, we needed the rain in California.

But yeah, #LOL@LA

 

Who the hell cares? It's one more year of the NFL at the Coliseum, which I consider a good thing.

 

Or one more year at a low level soccer stadium for the Chargers lol

 

Yes, he's being a hater because there's absolutely no evidence for what was said, so these rules don't matter. Do you really think anything is going to come out of this?

 

Bucs have signed Fitzpatrick as Winston's backup.

 

OJ is facing a parole hearing in July.
