Agreed, I like clean hits. Those, including what happened to Tua, are overkill. I think that player is likely going to get fined. Especially with Goodell watching the game. However, I think the Dolphins are going to be in a world of trouble.
Dolphins are in for it. This was a player who literally 4 days ago had visible motor skill issues from n obvious hit yo his head.

Then this....they are done.

I'd prefer to wait for the results of the investigation before rushing to judgment, which is usually the prudent approach.

If the NFLPA finds wrongdoing they'll be all over it, and should be. They have plenty of attorneys on the payroll.

The thing is in order to find wrongdoing someone has to talk.

If Tua had a concussion against the Bills, what is the extent to which the League could punish the Dolphins?

Why is Tony Gonzalez dressed like it is a January playoff game?

And that's really why a team can get away with that sort of thing. If they don't talk and if Tua doesn't say much, then the Dolphins might not be punished that badly, but I think his motor skills after the Bills hit show that something very bad happened to his head and was ignored.

Probably for the same reason I saw Floridians tweeting today about how they were "freezing" in 63 degree weather.

It was 59 here today and I wore shorts, but I'm used to cold weather. 59 isn't at all cold to me.

I know but still. It's not even October yet. Lol

I'd like to make a suggestion:

I think we've covered streaming services and concussion protocols. The second half has begun so let's watch the game.

I think someone said the game was on the NFL app.

It's a league investigation, not a court room. There's no 5th amendment protection. If someone refuses to talk then fire them.

Rephrase, someone has to talk honestly. They can just repeat the lie that they were told and if none of them break the cover story then you have no evidence.
