Learned something new about the NFL today

Players with big egos DESERVE brain damage and the brain damage will continue until they get their egos "under control".

Here I always thought the NFL, with their millions of dollars of "programs" about player safety, was supposed to discourage that.

But I didn't know about the Big Ego Exception.

I found that pretty interesting.  I never knew.

You expect the defense to not tee off on a QB running the ball into the endzone and that QB pulls up and stands tall...ripe for a chin shot?

Yea you haven't been watching the NFL at all for long...back in the 80s and previous(hell some in the 90s) that'd be a soft play....

Listening to the announcers today try to explain how the hit in the head today wasn't a penalty because of the various requirements was sickening. The fact is the league gave notice from day one this season that cam's head is not going to be well protected. Now in 3/4 games he has been hit in the head. Legal hits or not, there is a weakness being exploited at severe detriment to Cam's health. His teammates are being silenced as well as seen in the trai turner taunting penalties. It's bullshit. Some of our toughest guys are being reined in by the league until we comply.

He decided to be a runner and then hot dog it... 

Please point out where on that play he was "hot dogging" it.

He slowed down, yes.  He clearly wasn't aware about what was going on around him, yes.

And for that, assholes like you think he deserves a crown of the helmet to his head.

Does that kind of poo sound good in your head?  Because it sure as hell sounds dumb as fug after you wrote it down.

You do understand the NFL doesn't allow intentional shots to the head with the crown of the helmet against runners either?

Right?

Which "NFL" do you watch where that is allowed?

Or are you another member of "he was dumb ergo he deserves brain damage" crowd?

Considering that wasn't the crown of his helmet we have no problem here...

They showed it over and over again and it wasn't a crown of the head. It was an intentional HEAD shot but not with the crown, which you can do to a runner. You need to ask yourself about the rules and where the crown of a helmet actually is. There will be 0 fines for that too watch...old school football play can't be mad at it...don't fugin walk into the endzone...it's that simple.

You should watch the play again. He was not hit with the crown of the helmet. It was basically the ear hole where the contact was.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By strato · Posted

      Yeah okay. We as an organization have been more patient with him than many. And there has been a small parade of guys drafted since he was, also to bad teams, that have passed him. Some have lapped him. As a fan I am out of patience but he gets this year it is out of my hands always has been. I just hope the bar is higher than it has been for him.    FWIW, XL dropped two passes last year. He did do some other bad stuff, just saying.

      Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.

      Don’t recall seeing many of his interviews but what strikes me is that he engages and goes in depth. Even with the cliche answers as referenced by OP come across somewhat thoughtful.  Very likable personality despite being someone who can crush an average person like I can crush a paper cup. I knew Motons mother had a career at MSU but was looking on the google and found that Mushin Muhammad personally knew Motons grandfather.   His late grandfather was a professor at MSU.   Cool guy.  Interesting family and small world.
