ya I was thinking that too. They would do something like that for sure. He probably should seriously consider that.

The thing is it did not look like a real forceful tackle. Not sure why he did not slide after getting the first but really he looked like he was trying to find a place to fall and Hamlin was really just trying to stop him from going forward.

I would think he would be given every chance to walk if he wants to, last time was before his big money deal. So I think he felt some pressure to come back and make sure he is set for life.

I know people think it's all about money. But I find it hard to believe agents and players don't recognize the way Sean Payton did Russell Wilson dirty. Most teams, like the way KC treated berry and the dolphins will treat tua, do care about how their players are treated and i think it does matter more than we think when players decide where to play

He could get a job on the sidelines or a commentator gig if he’s truly devastated about losing Football

Dude is going to end up sitting in a dark room by himself a lot.

Hamlin really didn’t even try to tackle him… Tua recklessly dove head first into Hamlin.

Chief Pagan · 09-13-2024, 04:11 PM

Yea, it barely looked like a tackle. Hamlin was sort of standing there and Tua just ran into him.

It was fourth down and the refs really back the ball up if you slide. Tua may not have been confident of getting the first if he slide.

Of course, the sad thing is I would have given them less than 1 percent chance of the come back even with a first down and Tua still healthy.

Megatron96 · 09-13-2024, 04:23 PM

He should retire. He's had four concussions now, two really bad ones. And if he continues to play, he will have another one, and he'll keep getting concussions until he quits/forced to retire. And the damage to his brain is cumulative; sooner or later he's going to get hit and stroke out or something worse on the field. It's time to call it a career and save the rest of his life.

With his luck, a coconut would fall out of a tree, hit him on the head, concussing him for a 5th and final time.

He should just pull a Steve Miller Band and "Go on, take the money and run."

If I were Tua...

Retire. He has children and a family. Do you want to risk being concussed again and not be able to walk again? F that. Retire, take your money and LIVE a good life with your family. Put football behind you and get the ULTIMATE respect from the NFL community. This is his 4th concussion, do not be foolish and push your luck. Your athletic career dealt you a bad hand, move on and enjoy the rest of your life with your family. It is NOT a failure, it is what it is. Move on Tua and enjoy your life. Prayers he makes the obvious choice.

All of this. Hopefully he does what's best for his long-term health.
