He has a QB who is sent off the field by a game official and his next move is the correct one. He allows the trainers to look at the QB while he focuses on the next play and what to do after that.
If the independent doctors missed it (and they did) and the trainers missed it (Which they also did) how in the world can you actually blame the head coach for missing it??
Groups of trained medical professionals dropped the ball here and you want to crucify the guy with no medical training??? Are you high??
Players lie. Players want to play.
And yes he does. Have you seen those tablets they have? They are filled with pictures and videos from the drive that literally just finished. In the end, he's the head coach. You just watched your QB get obliterated and have a seizure.
In the modern age, there is literally no excuse for "I didn't see it"
HD video replay can be had instantly.
If your QB goes down, the coach better be checking on him.
I'm not saying he missed a diagnosis but common sense should dictate: You had what appeared to be a seizure. You are not well enough to go back in.
