mm has said more than once he wishes the helmet to helmet calls were called more consistently.
Can we agree he's implying, he wishes we'd get them called in our favor more? I think so. I think it's also safe to say he would like to see his QB protected similarly how to we see other QB's protected against us. Consistently.
The helmet to helmet blow by Jamon, I do not think was as bad as it looked. The knee to Rodgers head I think was the most damning blow between the helmet to helmet, knee to head and head to ground. That's a lot of bouncing of the brain.
Did the referee even have a good view of the helmet to helmet? I don't think so, but I think it was a fairly blatant late hit. I could be wrong on that.
Matt Flynn said that Rodgers came off the field fine and everything seemed normal. They played cards on the airplane, etc ...
We have two QB's, Flynn and Rodgers. If Rodgers was in danger of missing a game, we'd elevate a QB to the roster or add one to it. If this is not done by the end of today, or early Wednesday. I think Rodgers plays.
I'm not a doctor, by any stretch, but if a player comes off the field says "im a little woozy", bam, diagnosis concussion! Why would we do that?
To get the play in the headlines of the media. It's everywhere. The helmet to helmet shot Rodgers took could force him out a game or two.
If there's no concussion, this isn't talked about at all and the play isn't reviewed by anyone. With a concussion, it's out there for everyone to see and read about and discuss.
When they first said concussion, I right away thought Matt was going to get his first start. I now think this is more tactical than anything else.
It puts the helmet to helmet no call in the media and forces the Dolphins to prepare for two different QB's.
I think Rodgers sits Wednesday, probably Thursday and practices Friday and plays against the Dolphins.
