It really makes you wonder if we should IR Little for his long term health 

Hindsight 20/20 they probably would have when it first happened if they thought it would take this long to get over the effects. He'd be nearly halfway into the designated to return process

To be fair regarding the decisions, the concussion protocol is unpredictable. Some guys pass through it quickly. Others take a while.

That said, the fact that Little was placed in it and placed back in it with such a small amount of actual game time played is a tough thing to ignore.

Heck, how many quarters has he actually played? (quarters, not games)

I realize the time between concussions was longer, but did Luke not experience 2 concussions in a short amount of time?  I know that Luke was cleared to play after 3 games -second concussion-and was held out 6 games)

I don't remember how far apart they were but I do remember a few seasons back he spent several games on the sideline helping the coaches rather than playing.

I'm gonna guess it was that season.

4 maybe?  and he was splitting time with Williams?  So more like 2 maybe??

It's all the same concussion isnt it?  Just never fully got over it?

I’m hoping Daley locks down that LT spot so there is no pressure for Little to return. Honestly he needs to take the rest of the year off. 2 in two weeks is really fuging bad. Let him rest and recoup.

2 in like 6 weeks. His first was vs Patriots 8/22 and was put back in protocol after the Texans on 9/29. Still scary close but not two weeks.

I'm not sure this is about 2 distinct concussions or lingering effects or if anyone could even pin point it either way.

Ah I think I got confused because he didn’t play a couple games then came back and immediately got another one. Yeah, still scary. I’d have him take the season off. I know they won’t because they might need him second half of the season but 2 your rookie year is really not good.

      Houston Texans... You Suck!!!

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      Was just reading the Ask the Old Guy story on the team's website and was shocked to see that only two 2nd Rounders have signed so far, 30 of them haven't. That isn't normal, the Texans really screwed things up for the rest of the league, no other explanation that I can think of for 30 of the 32 picks to still be unsigned at this point.

      Canales Addresses CB position

      They need to address CB before season starts. This is not going to cut it.

      Rodgers to Pittsburgh confirmed

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      Except it wouldn't be Rodgers leading them on a postseason run, it would be the defense and he's there to not screw up their great games. Which is why..... This times a million. I didn't watch a ton of the Jets last year, but from what I did see, Rodgers himself didn't look like a bum, the team just struggled and was more than likely due to poor coaching on the whole.  The Steelers don't need MVP level Rodgers to win games, they just need him to be good enough to make some plays when it matters because the defense is keeping them in games every week regardless. In their 7 losses last season, the Steelers scored 10, 13, 17, 17, 17, 19, and 24... while giving up 19, 20, 24, 27, 27, 29, and 34 in those games.  With only marginally better offense last year, they probably end up winning a few more games too. They only scored over 27 points in 3 games last season. I think this is a great move by the Steelers and if Rodgers can stay healthy all year, will get them back into the playoffs and could make some noise if their defense is up to the normal level of a Steelers defense.
