Aikman on Concussions, Injuries, QB Rules

Troy Aikman was one of the toughest QB's to ever play the game...

The concussion rules are very good for the game. It's sad when you see a guy who's been retired for 10 years and he's having brain seizures or trouble speaking. Head injuries are the last thing you want to screw around with and I would hope these players don't fall into that 'I am too tough not to play' game. I would make sure my players know that if they have a concussion and don't alert the team of this condition they will be fined or even suspended.

These QB rules are straight ridiculous. You barely touch the QB's facemask and it's a 15 yard penalty. You hit him anywhere besides a 4" by 4" square on is gut and you get a 15 yard penalty. You hit him a millisecond after he releases the football and it's a 15 yard penalty.

Put a dress on them already.
