there’s no reason in the world that the NFL couldn’t invent a helmet that:

1. Is useless as a weapon for spearing opposing players,

2. Absorbs impact by the permanent deformation of interior components designed to absorb energy. Yes, frequent helmet changes would be necessary, but knowingly allowing your employees to systematically sustain systemic brain energy is both immoral AND bad for business.

I would also add that the NFL should add the NCAA rule that a player is automatically ejected for helmet-to-helmet targeting. I’ve noticed that such targeting now almost never happens in NCAA football since that rule was issued.

Allowing them to be unpatriotic and diss the flag is bad for business too, yet the commissioner and owners encourage it.
