I agree with him. Nobody offering their opinion on Tua's concussion has ever examined him. If you're going to rip the doctors who examined him at the Bill's game and let him play, why not also rip the ones who examined and released him at the Bengal's game when he had an obvious concussion??? An investigation is underway and we should wait for those findings.

When you are a professional in any field one of the things you realize is you NEVER knock another fellow professional UNLESS you have examined the situation yourself first hand. Anyone who does is trying to pump their own tires to make a name for themselves.
I like this :
“
Self-appointed amateur neurosurgeons are declaring diagnoses from their living rooms. Representative actual tweet: “My dad, a neurosurgeon, said that Tua most likely had a cervical spine injury. Season over, career potentially.”

For those of us that are in the healthcare field this is a daily occurrence. WebMD has made everyone instant professionals that question and challenges our YEARS of trianing and studying.
Heck some go as far as the “eye ball” test.

No comment beyond what I’ve posted. Yes! I can give valid medical thoughts based on my expertise.
Yes! Tua and what happen to him is the population of patients my group and I would see.

Hate to think like this, but it seems like someone always has it out for the Dolphins. I feel like they are going to throw someone under the bus and try to make an example of the Fins, whether by draft picks etc. Figures, we hit the ground running this season and controversy hits yet again.
The only thing I think comes from this is better concussion protocols.
Hope you’re right brother, I’m already tired of the constant “the Dolphins should be ashamed of themselves” talking heads

Once more based on what? That he “had” a concussion Sunday and the experts missed it or were intentionally negligent?
the way my brother explained it to me today is there's two types of concussions. A bruise to the brain, which shows up easily in an MRI, that's the most common type, but in some instances depending on the forces involved you can experience brain sloush, where the brain actually moves and is damaged by hitting the inside of the skull. Unfortunately this is much harder to get attacked and even some of the symptoms are different. Boxers suffer often from this type of concussion. Before us non-medically trained fans way in just be aware this is a possibility and he was honestly misdiagnosed.
That's the thing. I don't believe he did but somehow that is all that's being talked about. So the league and NFLPA will move ahead with something to satisfy the masses.
It's that damn Indian curse from disturbing and Indian burial ground for the stadium parking lot. How else can you explain 28 years of unusual crap up to and including our present owner.
