Who would really be surprised if, a generation from now, football was displaced as the premiere sport in America and basketball took over? There's just no way to change the NFL without fundamentally making it a different game.

This is classic overreaction ..6 months from now the NFL will prob be breaking ratings records as usual.

A generation from now the face of America will have much more color. I imagine it won't matter as much how white people feel. Or maybe their feelings will turn. Why not both?

Football is going nowhere.
However I could see ANY type of helmet/head contact being disallowed way down the line.
NFL is a financial juggernaut. Certain CFB conferences alone are juggernauts.
Beyond that the game is deepy ingrained in America's social fabric in many parts of the country.

It's going to be a trend this offseason with guys retiring due to concussions thinking about they health over riches not just with the 49ers. What good is the money if you can't enjoy it in the long run...

This sucks but honestly you have to respect the decisions these dudes make when it comes to their health.
If you do have concerns as a player though, don't enter yourself in the draft.

It's going nowhere, yet you think it'll survive with the lineman playing patty cake?

NFL should move some of that Billions of dollars of revenue over to a helmet innovation program.
And like others have said we got tons of football players who can't even make it in the NFL willing to replace players right now, NFL ain't going nowhere.

Replacing NFL caliber players with NFL Europe caliber players will not keep the league afloat.

There's no technology that can negate the impact of helmet to helmet contact. The force has to travel.

I'd imagine more emphasis will be placed on skill and technique. Yes, lineman utilize those things too.
