Maybe the NFL should reschedule the Tuesday game a few more days so the Titans can get more practice time in and you won't have to worry about them pulling hamstrings

They had a bye week plus 2 days, after playing 3 games. You guys go ahead and worry about the Titans conditioning level.

I'm not buying what you're selling about the Titans, they've been holding workouts

I seriously doubt they are out of shape and not getting treatment for injury

How so?

There will be no more positives boys.

You think this place is a cesspool, the Sabres site makes this place look civil. Cursing, name-calling, pontificating you name it.

Yep and that's cowboy upping by the NFL

This actually happened in baseball because of the 1972 baseball lockout. Tigers finished 86-70 and Red Sox 85-70....guess who made the playoffs

It gets to the point of really impacting competitve balance for other teams

Maybe the NFL should fine the Titans the amount needed to pay the Bills

Well we know you're not Tim Graham

Hated across the league like the Astros. and they did originate in Houston

I disagree, and I'm no apologist for the league, Baseball had a problem with the Marlins and Cardinals. How they handle the Titans is the biggest question yet to be determined. Still salavageable as one team of lunkheads caused the problem.

Yeah they don't need to make a decision at this point. The biggest question is where does it go for the Titans?

I think the NFL will postpone the Bills game for now, on to Kansas City, the league will figure out the Titans situation. As for any final conclusions about the Titans game, they'll postpone and see where it goes, may not even need to make it up or the league assigns a forfeit at the end to have the games add up to 16.

Oh Really

I think they'll shut the Titans down. If they can or need to make up the game, deal with it down the road.

I'll say it again, don't overreact, the NFL world has one team that was cavalier about following protocol. Why are the other 31 teams forced to accomodate their screw up? Send a message, violate protocol and have a breakout, and we aren't shuffling the whole world around for you. The protocol seems to work for everyone else when followed, remind everyone that to have a season this is what we need to do. Ridiculous to shut down for 2 works unless there are multiple breakouts. Don' t reward where there is no reason too. Rest of league: no postive tests. Titans SIX days in a row!

wtf Is that a beak or a mask?

If it isn't already the case, and with many other NFL teams.

How about forfeiture of the Steelers game? you?

Instead of moving teams/games around to accomodate the Titans the NFL needed to take a stance. Somehow the other teams in the league have managed to stay "clean" or close to it. With 15 people testing positive it's not as simple as someone contracting it by going home to child/spouse. They had to have either violated protocols of been cavalier somehow. Take a stance, set a precedent, and make teams/players realize that there are consequences. Instead they do the usual and treat them as victims and accomodate them. This isn't draconian, its simple common sense. How did the other teams manage it so far without problem?

This a really good point! Yes he had heart, but he also had a ton of talent and a tremendous lack of experience compared to most high picks. What that says is he had a lot of room to get better, thus a really high ceiling.

I'm not sure who the draft experts who said those things were, but I know they're out there. Not everyone missed, Mel Kiper had him as the number 1 pick potentially the year before. Others like our very own Bandit as well. One group who completely got it wrong and continues to qualify anything good about Josh Allen, such as calling him a unicorn, is the stats model crowds. They're lost if they can't look at a guys a stats and see who fits the model- Baker Mayfield anyone. Allen had no such numbers and requires thorough old-school evaluation and imagination as to what he could be potentially. Film work and getting to know the athlete and his makeup are important. It is not a simple as a model.
