I determine danger as the possible effects or results of the injury to the injured players health. Most of us are not doctors and cannot make that determination based on a quick visual.

Then why give the offense 1 chance to score?

Because the rules tell you to?
R5-8-2NOTE- This says that the officials can suspend play after the ball is dead, is in control of the injured player's team or "when the opponents complete a play". It goes on to say that a play is completed when a team loses control, including throwing for goal, or stops trying to score.
Iow, if you think that the player isn't seriously hurt, go by the procedure in the Preacher's first post above.

That's nice, but Daryl told us he will "...determine danger as the possible effects or results of the injury to the injured players health. Most of us are not doctors and cannot make that determination based on a quick visual."
If he believes we can't make a determination from a quick visual why wait at all is my question.
iow why go to the procedure?
