Argument of fact solutions

I believe that the way that technology is taking off today, the football helmets worn by players in the future will get rid of the concussion problems. There has been many models of new helmets that has lowered the concussion rates. Then again helmets are just protective gear, so we can't fully rely on them.

I believe that the rules should remain the same, but no further tackling rules should be changed. Video evidence should be used to determine if the player making the hit attempted to avoid injuring the player. If the tackle is nothing more than an accident then the player should not be ejected or fined. Players should be warned often of the consequences of making a illegal hit.

Players should be checked up on regular by team doctors to make sure there are no traces of CTE. If team doctors see that there are any chances of a player getting a concussion they should notify the coaches. Players should recover until their chances of getting concussed are slim.
