I posted this elsewhere (and again, I'm not unbiased), but Matt Scott didn't even have a concussion in that game. He just threw up. It's something he did often. In fact, he did it in the preseason for the Bengals this year. He proceeded to throw a touchdown.
I get that Deadspin claimed it was a concussion thing, but Matt Scott wasn't concussed.
I am FAR from an unbiased observer (being an Arizona fan), but Matt Scott didn't have a concussion in that instance. He wasn't diagnosed with a concussion, and he played the following week.

I mean, he didn't look "shaken up." He just threw up. I agree the optics are bad, but really, it isn't the same situation.

In fact, you may have seen this same quarterback in the preseason this year for the Bengals. He threw up and then immediately threw a touchdown pass: http://espn.go.com/blog/afcnorth/post/_/id/80105/bengals-qb-matt-scotts…
