If you ask some idiots here he doesn’t love the game because he can’t get medically cleared

The Cowboys are honoring protocol and at least trying to responsibly protect the health of it's players.
from what I gather this is all from the NFL and the teams really have very little to do with it

Sadly when reporters said we have a few weak minded players, I don't thing this is what they meant but one must wonder.... lol

Here's to hoping he gets better. My headaches/migraines were so bad they had me on ativan which worked well but was a pain to kick months later.

Jerry was a strong proponent for protection of payers with dramatic health issues. Concussion was a very high visibility arena, but Jerry added his measure to the shouldering of the needs...by the NFL.

Just to be honest, do you really feel like all teams presently honor the intent of the rules...or even fully comply? This fan isn't that naïve.

Yea, Jerry tries to walk the talk and support those of his players who need some type of 'outside' help. I respect the man a lot, for his humane character...

With what I see going on around the league, I wonder if the Cowboys are one of the few times that actually follow the concussion protocol and don't try to get around things. If so, I am glad the Cowboys are being proactive.

That is Jerrys problem

He tries to walk the talk rather than talk the walk when talking and walking are not mutually exclusive and walking and talking should not be randomly substituted for talking or walking or vice verse

Yep, Charlie Water had dozens of concussions and rarely missed plays let alone games...

True, but there was no protocol or rule preventing him, or other concussed players, from playing.

Granted, I will agree, to a point, Irving is not of the same mold as Charlie Waters and might be prone to milk it as long as possible, but the Cowboys are doing what is best for the player as well as following the rules.

Irving is a *****. Get out there and win. Headache?? Rub some Vaseline on it and get back out there!! :).
Devante Adams took one of the most violent hits to the head that I've seen and didn't miss a game.

Unfortunately the 2nd most violent hit to the head I've seen in a long time was again to Adams this past game. I'm curious to see if or how much time he misses with this one.
