The Concussion Blog

Please excuse the two posts, as my computer decided it was a good time to die.  Recovering files and spending money gave me a severe headache, however I can now bring you the stats up-to-the-minute.

Last week was the most reported concussions thus far, and if you include the Oakland Raiders report of Tyvon Branch, the total was 11 reported concussions from Week 9, surpassing Week 6’s seven reported.  There still remains some questions as to whether Zack Follett and Joseph Addai sustained concussions during Week 6 as well, so take these numbers for what they are worth; as accurate as the media and reports allow us to be with them.

74 concussions during regular season action.

• .55 Concussions/game
• 8.22 Concussions/week (up from 7.66)
• 140 Projected concussions
• Current Epidemiological Rate (Total Concussions/Total Active Players) – 8.24%
• Current Incidence Rate (Total Concussions/Average Players Playing per team) – 13.24%
• Current Chance to sustain a concussion on a given play – 2.34%
