Kept overnight at the hospital. Released in the morning. Doctors say he was neurologically fine. Still complaining of neck pains.... I don't blame him!

Other than the fact that it's against the rules to lead with your helmet into another players helmet....

He had his shoulder turned, but at the last second sprand foreward with his head.... why? The play panned out so that he could have made that tackle in a bunch of different ways. McGahee had just turned around and barely had enough time to even dip his shoulder. I'm not being a pussy about it.. but it was completely uncalled for. Other than the wow factor... we dont need another Kevin Willis breaking his neck...

Bullshit. Watch the reply again.

Both players dropped their heads at nearly the same time... McGahee took two steps after the reception and lowered his shoulder... Criticize the guy for not hitting low... Ask McGahee how he likes that shit when he get's his knee blown out again.

It's a contact sport. These things happen. I don't think it was intentional at all, it's just one of those things that happen.

Bullshit what. I've watched that video a hundred times today. 1:07... Of course he had time to turn and see the defender, but Mcgahee had no time to defend himself from a h2h collision.

And from multiple angles defender had plently of time to close and wrap, it wasnt a last second thing man. He purposfly lead with his helmet at a 45 degree angle. He could have just as easily continued to lower his shoulder and stick Mcgahee in the ground like taught. That kind of headhunting is just dangerous....

A helmet to helmet hit IS legal if you are tackling a down field ball carrier. I think it was a clean legal hit. It's just the nature of the game.
