It would look stupid.
...I am not knocking you, my friend JJ, it is just the way I feel about it.
and I know there have been a lot of positive tests this week and last, but do you know who this effects the most?
the Bills...almost solely....last week’s team, this week’s team, Thursday night’s team.
there are 28 to 29 teams that don’t have anyone with covid. We need to pump the brakes a bit on bubbles and other options of that nature,
I get that but the thing is, by the time the number of infections are numerous enough to justify a bubble, it will be way too late for a bubble to save the season. You don't wait until the levee breaks before shoring it up with a storm on the way. I suppose the Titans situation could be an anomaly but everything this virus has shown us over the last 7 months belies that belief.

Yes it is speculative talk. The world could rebel and an asteroid could hit Titans facility.
Better talk would be as you wrote - state the possibilities according to new rules and which ones have been used in past.
Not exactly sure difference between cancel (other than season) and forfeit is.
Cancel the game: those two teams play one less game, post season based on winning percentage. Awful but I guess it would be possible.

Are they speculating or have a legit source?
Nonfact factoid. The only possible outcomes are play as scheduled, postpone, cancel or forfeit. None of these has been eliminated so it is true that the game "could" be canceled. They are not saying it will be or even that it will likely be forfeited, just saying it is within the realm of possibility. Very informative, no?

Ya but do we really want to have a free win on our record? I have mixed feelings about that.
I agree but I think we have to accept that this season will be filled with less than perfect solutions and a fair amount of unfairness. We gotta do what we gotta do.

Sources who aren't believable should be ignored.
The notion that we or other Allen fans concentrated on the wrong stats, being beguiled by Josh's big plays, is lunacy. It was they who were obsessed with the wrong stats causing them to miss what was right in front of them. Rotisserie Baseball enthusiasts should not be allowed to give opinions on football without first detoxing at a re-education camp for recovering arithmomaniacs.
Oh yeah, its a word:

Maybe the OP lives in Europe?? If so, the answer would be you for being awake to read it....
I blame my dogs. They go into a breakfast anticipation frenzy every morning around 4:00.

I don't know what makes me more sad, that you are starting a thread at 4:30 am or that I am awake to read it. 😁

A less than perfect season, in so many ways, is the price of playing the game during a pandemic. I accept that with no complaint. Roll with the punches my dudes.

No what it means is they ran into the critical flaw of basing things solely on numbers.
This.
Football is not Baseball, way more variables involved. Too many fans have seen "Moneyball" one too many times. Stats are far better at telling you what happened as opposed to what will happen. Completion percentage is a good example of how stats can be helpful but also deceiving. Unaccounted for variables abound. Is the play calling uninspired? Is the OL routinely terrible? Is the offensive system predictable and poorly crafted? Do the WR's get open? Do they drop a lot of balls or are they unable to make contested catches? Is the defense awful so that the offense is forced to air it out? Is their running game nonexistent? Do they play in a brutal division with lots of good defenses with top notch secondaries? Is the coaching staff lousy? Does the offense call for lots of throws that are high reward/high risk? On and on it goes.
Stats are very, very helpful, no doubt, but we shouldn't be blinded by them.
-
Does this mean that the Church of the Holy Completion Percentage, overwhelmed with apostates at last, is closing its doors for good? Or will we be assaulted with preachy sermons on high level analytics on Allen's DVOACRAP percentage from every street corner the second he has anything less than a perfect game?

Josh is a permanent candidate for this unless and until he wins a SB, league MVP and cures a major disease.

NFL Launches LGBTQ History Month PSA
in The Stadium Wall Archives

LGBT folks have money too. And they spend some of it on entertainment. And their numbers are not insignificant. And they have many supportive allies. And they are not the biggest NFL fans around. Seems like it is a nice thing to do and on top of that, it would be corporate negligence to ignore so many potential new fans. Marketing-wise, the LGBT community has always been hyper-loyal to brands they perceive as being on their side.
As for the grumpy grumpermeisters that are inevitably going to grump, grump, grump, their kvetching is added amusement for us all. Its a win-win situation. And if a bunch of them leave football over it, then its a win-win-win situation.
