Helmet to Helmet Hits
This post is not only about the devastating hits that have been delivered during NFL games as of late but also the lasting effects that they have on the brain! Research has clearly shown that concussions and any type of post-concussion symptoms can be detremental in growth and a healthy lifestyle in the future. What exactly is the NFL doing to try and prevent this from happening with such regularity? Maybe an even better question would be what can be done? Today's modern athlete is faster, smarter, and stronger making a deadly combination for lethal hits!

Football is a dangerous sport. Only a select few can play and even less make it to the pros. I hate to see players get injured and leading with their helmets and using helmet to helmet hits is terrifying to any player. In my eyes the players are not trying to kill eachother with devastating blows to the head. These defensive players are getting paid big money to play hard and hit harder. If they dont do their job they wont see contracts or playing time.
