Hello. Hello. Hello. You are to win the game. That's the great thing about sports. You are to win the game.

All right, welcome to you, Pod. To win the game, I am Charles Robinson, senior NFL writer for Yahoo Sports. He is Frank Schwab, senior NFL writer for Yahoo. Frank, we don't usually dip back into the Thursday game.

But the to a tongue of a loa situation, obviously with the concussion protocols and leaving the game against Cincinnati and having to go to hospital, the bangles won that game by the way.

But that was very much the side show to anything else that happened that night.

The reason I want to leave with that today is, and we're only going to spend a little brief time on this.

I went and looked last week prior to the two injury on Thursday, the concussion on Thursday.

The Sunday that to a we felt like he was concussed against the bills in week three, right? Remember that day?

Yeah, it seems like years ago. Yeah, it seems seems like years ago. I went and looked three. I found three players, three players, entered the concussion protocol and were not allowed to return to a game that Sunday.

Obviously, he was not one of those. He entered the protocols, cleared them and the back injury protocol.

So I looked that up. The reason why I looked that up was because today following all the angsty hand ring that's going on right now with the NFL and the pissed off NFL PA, the union saying, you know, we want this investigated.

They wanted things changed. The unions, you know, as angry as can be about this, you got Congress that's diddling around now at this point.

We know that the NFL and the NFL here are going to come out with some quote unquote enhanced protocols.

It's going to be some tweets to this, right? And it sounds like it's going to be if someone exhibits the loss of gross motor function out on the field during the game, they're done. They're just going to be done.

Like we're not going to play with this anymore. We're not going to go through the hoops. If they exhibit the loss of gross motor function or the gross loss of motor function, they're going to be finished.

I bring this up because 12 players, 12 today in eight games were benched in the concussion protocols.

It went from three that Sunday that two was able to enter the bills game to 12 today, including the Sunday night slate in which we see Cameron Brayt.

Tight end for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers appear to be not 100% right re-enters the game, right?

He hits his head again, hits it in Chris Godman's knee and then that point he disappears and we find out he's can cost using the protocols.

I think we got a little bit of a taste of what this could look like in a post tweak world where there was a lot of, I think, attention and detail paid to this.

I don't think anyone's going to come out and say, hey, we circulate a memo and we told the refs and we told the spotters and we told the neurologists and we told the team doctors and told the teams, don't f*** around.

If someone appears to be can cost, you do the right thing.

Okay, make sure that this individual does not ultimately end up returning the game.
