Football Concussions

Concussions have been a major problem in the NFL ever since the first game played.

With the new technology associated with the NFL to make the game safer to play it still does not make it safe.  However with the new helmets that developed once in a while and new concussion protocol such as IMPACT testing, it has caused less concussions in the NFL.  But the questions still remains, can coaches, players, and NFL prevent concussions? 
As long as contact football exists there is no such thing a safe football unless the league decides to play flag football.  But the NFL is trying their best to make it safer.  With new rules changes every year and heavier fines to players that break those rules. 
As the most watched sport in America, football will continue to entertain its fan with ferocious hits that gets the crowd all pump up.  In the future, hopefully the game will become safe in a way that no player will suffer with psychological problems.
