It almost looks like the league is helping out the Ravens and Schefter is the broom sweeping it under the rug huh?

I didn't saying anything at all about the Bills and this has nothing to do with Singletary or Allen.

Shirley you can't be serious with fines as a "punishment". And if the NFL was rule bound as you state, we would already know the specific potential punishments based on findings. But we don't, do we? Does that sound rule bound or arbitrary to you? "Big" fines and undisclosed draft picks is vague, not specific. I think the Broncos messed up by not giving a QB the Fromm treatment. It is unfortunate that this could result in an injury to one of their players today. They are primarily culpable because of their mistake, but the league is holding their feet to the fire. Baltimore, who is egregiously in knowing violation of rules, has been afforded more leeway by the league than Denver. They were supposed to play Thursday. They were responsible for their own inability to do so. They should have been forced to forfeit. Instead they have put their opponent's schedule into disarray and have a better chance to win than does Denver. The league said violations of protocols would be harshly punished and that has proven to be false. 9 players positive, 13 more close contact? Or the Occum's Shaver solution that the league is making up crap on the fly and disseminating it through mouthpiece Schefter.

Dude nothing I have said here has anything to do with the Bills one way or another. I simply said that I believed that even in 2020 that there is a home field advantage, even if smaller that usual. Somebody pointed out that the overall league home record is below .500 effectively stating there is a home field disadvantage. I just disagree with that.....that's all. Strip out the Jets, Jags, and NFC East home records and voila. Home field advantage. At no point did I make any statement about the Bills. I am very happy with the way the Bills season has gone and think we're a very good team.

How were the Titans punished? Since you used a plural, what other teams have been punishedand how? How will the Ravens be punished? The NFL has been highly arbitrary. If they were consistent as you contend, we would all already know the Ravens supposed upcoming punishment because it would have been prescribed ahead of time. Instead it will be similar to the Pats taping the Bengals. Double secret probation nonsense. The Ravens punishment is only "outside of this discussion" because it makes your argument of the league being rule bound look completely absurd. They are making things up as they go along. The Broncos, who did not have coaches breaking rules, will be physically punished this afternoon. Players may end up hurt as a result because they are blocking for a WR playing QB and that will certainly have them improvising. Had the Broncos broken more rules there would be no such risk. And it is still not certain if or when the Ravens will have to play.

What? I pointed out that the Jets, Jags and NFC East are bad. Because they are so bad, their records skew the overall home team W/L record. Of course the games should count I the real standings. I'm just saying they don't demonstrate anything about home field advantage.

Denver might actually get punished for that.....unlike the Titans and Ravens.

This was about team records not individual stats.

I thought I had it but the person I had in mind is a prominent announcer so no. I'll try Jackie Joyner.

The NFL stated they would harshly punish teams that broke protocol. I think they should harshly punish teams that broke protocol. How's that, smart guy? Don't forget to hit the passive aggressive Googly eye button on your way out.

But they are good teams. You have your math upside down. If anything, we should remove their road records. FWIW I agree with the premise that home field is worth less in 2020 but still think it is worth a little,. The numbers are skewed by the very bad teams losing home games.

Was the name change due to marriage/divorce?

Did this person have a famous hair style?

Take out the home games of the Jets, Jags and NFC East and the stats paint a different picture.

Dude that entire Tuesday broadcast was about how much the Titans had to overcome and what a heroic effort they put forward. Swept under the rug were the photos of practices in total violation of very well known rules and they went without any significant punishment.

You don't quite understand. Drink this Kool-Aid and think about it a little more then get back to us. Edit:. I read a little further after replying and see the Koolaid brigade has made its way into this thread too.

League is going to make up crap as it goes along. See 1000 other times it has done so over the years icluding the double secret probation warnings to Tenn and Bal who clearly broke rules everyone knew about. Teams containing the outbreak and following rules play short handed, teams ignoring protocols get their opponents screwed and get some players back. Seems legit. -- Anyone other than Dan Graziano or another mouthpiece Nocember 29 2020

Lots of words, but the policy still favors teams who screw up.

Eric Cartman's opinion of hippies is spot on.

Exacatickly. And we're supposed to believe that the Titans didn't know off site unorganized practices were forbidden. 93.7% of fans knew that but Talleywhacker and company had no idea. Right.

So you're saying the NFL's policies give Denver incentive to infect more guys so their game can move back and they can have a QB? The facts are that the Ravens massively screwed up and are being accommodated while Denver had bad luck so screw them. Classic.

I agree. I think they are nice.

Steeee-rike Correct. You are up. Famous connection was Pete Rose, famous relative is his actor son Paul.

He may be dead to you but he isn't dead.

No. Wrong sport,
