1:59 look at #93 from the Ravens. He truly cares about opposing players, at least. He noticed and waved the medical staff over before his own teammates did.
The brain hitting the inside of the skull upon rapid deceleration due to impact is what causes concussions and cte. No advancement in helmet technology will change that. Sad but true.
@@thebigman9705 I agree on some passes but on the one shown here peyton knew it would be tight so he threw it low I think he was hoping collie would catch it much lower.
Troy is one that can speak about being out as well as anyone. I remember when they pulled the plug on his career the team doctor said he sat with Troy answering the same question over and over for three hours.
Some people somehow studied his mental health since that hit and they all say that that hit was the one that gave him a cte which made him how he is now.
I kept telling people that is way he acts like this now . He could have a mild to severe case of CTE every players that has had a concussion or several ones acts like this.
@@lightyagami3492 I'm sure you got your bell rung a few times lol. But I'm sure you don't know what that is like n that you ain't never ever got hit that hard. I played football for 10 years and thata not cool. I'm sure your young jus learn from it lil breh
@@user-li1eg8xz7v You can't stop it. Many of these incidents are unintentional helmet to helmet. A player coming in to help with a tackle then the angles change at the last minute. Trying to make an open field tackle and the opposing player jukes at the last moment hoping to make the other player miss but they end up helmet to helmet. Etc etc etc. Intentional hits should have lengthy suspensions but it's tough to prove intent because the game is a game of inches and angles. Can't stop it. You hope helmet technology improves beyond what it is now, but you can't stop it.
Man, as much as the soft fouls recently can annoy me, I’d rather have them rather than see these guys get brain damage and have it be just part of the game.
It's already too late for many of them by the time they enter the NFL. Many of them have CTE or have suffered the damage that will lead to CTE by then. Aaron Hernandez had severe CTE by 27 and was only diagnosed with one concussion in the NFL. Chris Henry had it at 26 and was never diagnosed with one. CTE has been found in many people who never played football after the college level. It has even been detected in an 18 year old who played high school football. It's more than likely already developing at the youth football level.
@@cgarnet01 putting someone in football at 9 years old, by the time they hit 18 its probable they have cte, by the time they finish college the most likely have it, and if you play in the nfl you definitely have it.
@@cgarnet01 The NFL's only video game adaptation removed head injuries from the game. But chose to keep the "Hit Stick", a move on defense that delivers a more devastating impact as a defender, upon the ballcarrier. The NFL's monopolized video game adaptation is hiding the injury risk of the sport. While the kids playing the sport for real in school are imitating the virtual defenders they play as at home, that are never penalized for helmet to helmet hits.
Jim Otto "This is football, this is for men." Jim Otto "But now there are more concussions due to not being used to the hard hitting." NFL players today are SOFT.
@@cianbroderick4145 Just because you love the game does not mean you love people getting brain damage. I love wrestling but watching someone get injured is horrible to see happen live.
This really just makes me sad. Like i love football, I really do and always have, but these kinda of hits are terrible to see happen, I hate them. Like, these are people’s sons and husbands and brothers. It would be heartbreaking to see your son suffer something like this, especially seeing someone else celebrate it. As a defender, this should not be your goal. Some of these men are permanently effected because of this, some may even not live as long as they would have otherwise. Eh, I know some of this sounds dramatic, but I just really feel for these guys and their families when something like this happens.
Daniel Mackey This reply is more disgusting than these hits. What is wrong with you? What if you took a hit like that? The hits hurt so much they can’t even hang on to the ball. And you enjoy it?!
In my junior year in high school, I hit a kid crossing into my zone. My knee unintentionally caught the side of his helmet solid. Laying on his back, his arms were straight up in the air with his right arm slightly crooked. His eyes were half open but crossed. I’ve never been so scared. They neckbraced & backboarded the kid and rushed him to the hospital. Thank God, he ended up okay. However even though I wasn’t hurt, I couldn’t bring myself to play the rest of the season. I wouldn’t play again until he played. We met on the field again next season. I still feel my knee hitting his head. I’m almost 63yrs old now.
No collision will ever repeat the devastation Steve Atwater committed on his own teammate and that Packers wide out. It sounded like a car crash. The impact it made was shellshocking, and the reaction from #34 speaks for itself.
This is just like MMA in the sense that "protective" gear shields the user and the protected area to such an extent that those otherwise vulnerable areas of the body become weapons. No player would ever lunge into another player, head first, in a frontal collision, if they didn't have those pads and helmets protecting them. It's just crazy!
That first one? Yeah no that's entirely on Goodwin in that first clip. Shouldn't have done... Whatever the fuck he did [seriously what was he going for? An ass flop?]
All jokes aside It really is sad to see though especially if you’ve had something similar happen to you and knowing the damage those hits may have done to them
Not gonna say these players know they're going to have life altering brain dmg, but people sell their bodies for sports all the time. When you stay in contact sports too long this is what will happen. The NFL down to peewee football don't even begin to address the life changing process of brain damage. Why? Because they're uneducated idiots.
@3:35 RB lowered his head into the defender’s head. This is why that penalty should go for both players.... other than that... these hits are atrocious.
When you see these all at once it's impossible to not think that this game has to end. At least at this level. These guys are so strong and so fast . . . I don't see a way to make it safe.
I don’t see a way to make driving in traffic, eating too much sugar, drinking excessively, rock climbing, racing cars, skydiving, playing hockey, joining a police force, etc etc etc safe, yet here we are. You can’t ban everything that’s dangerous. ‘Safety’ is a cute little lie people like to tell themselves.
*Hail to the Ravens and Respect* Soft ass NFL Rules committee MADE THE NEW ENGLAND PATRIOTS Who they are today👈 *Peyton Manning Protected* *Tom Brady protected along with his 3 to 7 yard passing Plays to his show boating Receivers that would not be as nearly as good as they are If The Game of Football was still a MAN'S GAME* Can't touch those punks at all😂😂
Peyton was responsible for the hit Collie took. Part of being a good QB in those days was knowing when not to set up your receiver to get their head knocked off - "suicide passes" are more common in today's pass-happy NFL because the RTP and Defenseless Receiver penalties are supposed to lower the chances of hits like that, but when Peyton played for the Colts in the Troy Polamalu and Ray Lewis days those passes were just considered sloppy quarterbacking.
Everyone always blames us and the first one in this video I remember well, no one cared about our guy being down for the fucking count, all anyone talked about was the Pittsburgh guy
The NFL claims they care about being up front about CTE and preventing it from happening to the players. Meanwhile their video game adaptation removed head injuries from the game, instead encouraging use of the "Hit Stick" to deliver a more devastating impact as a defender, upon the ballcarrier.
That first guy.. oh my God... the way he reacts by frantically grabbing the air, and then goes limp... that was a horrible thing to see. I had some nasty concussions during High School football, and it's a horrible thing to go through. I feel extra sympathy for people who suffer these injuries, and extra disdain for those who go out of their way to cause them.
A good way to see if somebody has a concussion is if they land face-up, there’s a good chance that if they do, in fact, have a concussion, that their lower arms will sort of rise parallel to their body. I guess it’s some kind of natural body response to trauma? Idk, just remember hearing it somewhere.
