    I think Brissett was concussed

    Dude took a shot at one point in the second half were I thought he was going to be sent off to me cleared by an NFL doc. He stayed in. He actually stumbled after taking the next snap and almost fell. The announcers even mentioned it. A few commercials later than came back and showed him on the bench looking blankly ahead and blinking excessively.

    The Patriots showed no signs of hurry at the end of the fourth. No hurry up. They even ran the ball. Their passes were screen passes (most at least, maybe not all). I believe he was concussed and they were simply trying to ride out the game and not have him take another shot.

    Thoughts?

    The radio feed yesterday said he had that same blank look in the 1st quarter while clenching his throwing hand. Several times they mention that they though he couldn't grip the ball for a downfield throw.

      He looked woozy to me. Certainly thought he should at least be checked out by refs.
      I remember that one fateful day when Coach took me aside. I knew what was coming. "You don't have to tell me," I said. "I'm off the team, aren't I?"
      "Well," said Coach, "you never were really ON the team. You made that uniform you're wearing out of rags and towels, and your helmet is a toy space helmet.
      You show up at practice and then either steal the ball and make us chase you to get it back, or you try to tackle people at inappropriate times."
      It was all       true what he was saying. And yet, I thought something is brewing inside the head of this Coach.
      He sees something in me, some kind of raw talent that he can       mold. But that's when I felt the handcuffs go on.

        NE wasn't going to risk having Edelman play qb in a game they already had no hope of winning.

          Exactly. So instead they risk the long term health of a young no name QB.

            Yup. I bet they already plan to have him get surgery on that thumb so short of him dying, he was going to be out there.

              I already commented in another thread that it was BS that the refs didn't concussion protocol him.

                I really wanted to see Edelman out there at QB because i can't stand that little **** and i wanted Jerry Hughes to end his season. But beyond that it's BS that they put Brissett's career and health in jeopardy like that.

                  Brissett sucks. That's my thought.

                    Pats played like they just wanted to take their 3 wins and call it a day and get off the field with everyone one healthy especially the coaching staff

                      It was obvious he wasn't right. Everyone saw it on TV, the announces saw it from their booth. I wonder why the refs didn't walk him out like they did with Tyrod on Week 3. Hopefully the league will look into this.

                        exactly, but can you blame them?

                            Most folks with a broken thumb suck. That's my thought.

                              It seems you're right, Brissett had surgery on the thumb Friday.
