Can you feature whiplash?

I'm guessing Victor Cruz crapper after attractive a rough impact from Ryan adventurer during Sunday's mettlesome between the New royalty Giants and metropolis Steelers. If you haven't seen the impact in question, here's a look below.

The impact was flagged as a expiration to the head, which apparently was not the case, and the Giants were presented a pivotal first downbound and went on to reason a touchdown. That was a pretty bounteous deal, considering the endeavor in discourse was a third-down attempt.

I ease conceive this could impact been titled as "unnecessary roughness." The endeavor was understandably over for Cruz after the ball was defensed in face of him before adventurer dead clean his clock. 

Now, you could attain the discussion this was a bang-bang play, but had adventurer been watching the endeavor kinda than headlike on a beeline straight for Cruz, he would impact had plentitude of instance to vantage up and refrain the contact. 

Here's a assorted seek on the play.

One abstract is for certain: The "blow to the head" call was incorrect. Most folks module debate there shouldn't impact been a call on this endeavor at all, and I'm trusty whatever of you module impact brawny text for my declaration that the endeavor could impact ease been titled for "unnecessary roughness."

After the hit, Cruz place walk on the earth for a some minutes, and it appeared to be either a nous or cervix injury. After watching his embody resile after Clark's hit, neither would impact been surprising. 

Luckily, Cruz was healthy to convey to the mettlesome and the forecasting was injured ribs, sure meliorate than what the trauma appeared to be initially. 

I envisage the referees in discourse module be effort a call from the association duty most this uncomprehensible call, and it raises added debate: Should fast repetition be allowed to avow the rigour of a ref's call? Should the officials be held to the aforementioned reviewing machine if they blatantly call a endeavor incorrectly?

It would verify farther likewise such instance during the mettlesome if apiece call was reviewed same every touchdown is, but if a railcar could ingest digit of his challenges, it wouldn't change the line of the mettlesome some differently than some another contest does.

It's something to study agitated forward.

As for Cruz, he should be beatific to go for incoming week's conflict with the metropolis Bengals, and after that the aggroup module impact a bye, so he should be healthy to full better before a alive Week 12 showdown with the Green Bay Packers. 

I conceive we could every forgive him if he has hurt on the nous for the incoming hebdomad or so, though.

 

Hit me up on Twitter—my tweets aren't afeard to intend emotive after a bounteous win.
