If the cuck caps actually work then why isnt NFL making them required equipment?

You know, since player safety is paramount and all.

Probably because players rather make personal statements on style and not looking in their eyes like a pussy.

I’ve read that they test very well in labs but in actual game play the results are less impressive with them actually preventing injuries.

You ever work for a company that says safety is paramount?

Ever see them ignore safety issues?

the only way to prevent CTE is to simply not play in the NFL - goofy looking helmets will not change that

If they enforced them you’d be melting about that, why does it bother you that they give the choice to use them?

I can’t speak for the NFL but guessing they would want to see more full data on the efficacy before going all in on it, which seems reasonable unless you’re looking for a reason to be mad about it. They didn’t require neck rolls or the new concussion neck braces either and players chose to wear those without much of a stink.

A Green Bay receiver wearing one this week had a big catch early in the game and he popped up and began flexing. Looked like a cartoon character doing that shite.

At least they don't look as bad as these.

If a defensive player is wearing one, and if he leads with his head on a tackle, could he have a valid argument that he wasn't targeting because his head is soft and couldn't do a hard hit?
