Will the NFL's concussion problem ever go away?

Marvin Lewis and Mike Brown are not worried about the new policy of the NFL that will punish teams for violating concussion protocol. But is the league on the verge of solving the game's most worrisome problem? Or is it inevitable that the game must change drastically?

Marvin Lewis does not think the new agreement on concussion rules reached by the NFL and NFLPA last month will adversely affect the Cincinnati Bengals. Going forward, teams that violate the NFL's concussion protocol can be fined from anywhere between $50,000 and $100,000 and can even lose draft picks.
