Ugh

Looks like we are signing a QB this week. Paging David Webb…..
Not surprised

That was a hard hit. Dumb move
Got to figure he's not even getting on the plane to London.

(I don't think you're supposed to fly with a concussion. But he's not going to be available next Sunday anyway.)

Davis Webb, you're next man up.

Jones dodging a bullet. Half the board would be talking up Tyrod as the savior we need.
Matt Barkley is going to be a Giant, isn't he?

Because Tyrod was a runner and also lowered his head. There's no penalty there.
Can Tyrod go on Short term IR?

Interesting you say that. First thought that came to my ins sfter Thursday nights game when Dolphins announced good news Tua inky we a concussion and flew home with the team.

I thought you shouldn’t be flying after a concussion, is that an old wives tale?
Hey gidie!!!

There's a pinned injury thread above. What's with the redundancy? ;O)

Correct me if I’m wrong, but when the QB is running, he’s treated as any other runner with the ball?

Any other team, that is a defensive penalty. He lead with his helmet.
Is Chad Powers still available?

He may have gotten it on the fumble.

A Giant slid right into his head trying to recover the ball.

Think fast, run fast!

Stranger shit has happened. They once pulled Testeverde off the couch at about the same age.

One, it doesn't matter if he is a runner there. Two, he didn't really lower his head. He lowered his head/shoulder a little, but turned his body. He was hit high and it was direct helmet to helmet, right on the side of the head. You could clearly see it and hear it,.

And, to be clear, I say it doesn't matter that he was a runner because a direct helmet to helmet head, with the defender leading with his helmet is a penatly on a RB or WR with the ball also.

I’m going under the assumption the ref didn’t have a good view. TT turned sideways just prior to the hit so it could’ve looked like initial contact was with his shoulder.

The commentators were certainly no help initially implying that that was a legal hit since he was a runner

This is not true. If Tyrod doesn't lower his head a little, the defender's helmet doesn't go into his helmet. If they called a helmet to helmet everytime a runner lowered his shoulder a little bit they'd call a penalty on every play.

The only time you really see a helmet to helmet called is on defenseless players (sliding qb, WR over middle) or QB in pocket. Anytime a player has the ball and lowers their head at all to try and gain more yards they aren't calling that helmet to helmet contact.
Leading with helmet to tackle is absolutely a foul

This is mildly outdated (1st google hit) but I’m sure they haven’t softened this rule

Quote:
(i) using any part of a player’s helmet or facemask to butt, spear, or ram an opponent (Note: This provision does not prohibit
incidental contact by the mask or the helmet in the course of a conventional tackle or block on an opponent).


From Rule 12, Section 2, Article 8i of
2020 official playing rules - ( New Window )
Regardless, it was a stupid play for a backup QB to make...  
sb from NYT Forum : 10/3/2022 10:21 am : link
...just go out of bounds! Thank goodness Jones wasn't seriously hurt and could come back in. What would the Giants have done if he couldn't? Run the wildcat the rest of the game? Put Sills in at QB?

Taylor had to be smarter there.
