Asymptomatic case describes someone having Covid 19 without displaying symptoms. Trying to test someone who is not showing any indication they have Covid 19 is a test and time better spent on someone showing symptoms wouldn't you agree? Coming into close contact for over 15 minutes with someone who now has Covid 19 from a testing stand point is not enough reason IMO.

Kelly has 10 career fumbles https://www.nfl.com/players/jim-kelly/stats/career Where are you even getting this stuff from? Jim Kelly did turn the ball over excessively. Do you think because JK turned the ball over allot Fitz gets a free pass for all the games he lost? As I already explained. Jim Kelly was a finisher and won many football games. Yes, he had a better supporting cast then Fitz. Kelly also had a cannon throwing arm compared to the noodle arm of Ryan Fitzpatrick. Apparently you like Fitzy and I could think of a ton of good things to say about him. Deep down as with many departures I will always be a fan of the bearded one. I think Fitzpatrick would make for a brilliant OC in the NFL one day. Myself personally, knowing where the football needed to go and the balls to put it there has never been a problem for the gunslinger. Fitzy normally ends up knowing the playbook as well if not better then the OC. I hope Fromm does well and eventually takes over the backup duties for the Buffalo Bills. I also hope Barkley does well and eventually moves on to bigger and better opportunities as a starter in the NFL. (like Fitzy) Never understood a fan wishing bad results upon their own players in an effort to prove themselves right. Oh well...

From a fairness standpoint it probably should be universal. I'm not sure how the owners or players feel about it. At 25% stadium capacity or less to allow for social distancing along with mask wearing its not like the twelth man is going to help much anyway IMO.

Troll? I think I've been very polite explaining my position. What stats refute my claims of Fitzpatrick being a career turnover machine? 29 career fumbles. More INT's (161) then games played.(156) Fitzpatrick started his career throwing 17 INT's in his first 15 Game starts. ( won 4 ) Been doing it ever since. What stat refutes Barkley having very little game experience? Or playing for multiple teams and OC's? Myself personally, it takes some continuity and actual game experience to get better at the QB position in the NFL. 14 game starts is less then one season. Its not enough IMO. Especially when the 14 games is scattered over 5 seasons. Fitzpatrick on the other hand has been turning the ball over at the most inopportune time his whole career. Never accomplishing anything other then what hes doing right now. ( filling in until the right guy comes along) I concede JK and RF do have somewhat similar career numbers. ( good point) Different Era For perspective 2nd year player Lamar Jackson 2019 season TD to INT 36 : 6 The difference between Fitz and JK is when Kelly threw INT's early in a game, he finished the game with TD's. /Wins. Fitzy, not so much. Jim Kelly also accomplished something in his career IMO. When I look at Barkley I see potential. You evidently see someone that has already failed. I don't feel that way. Its doubtful our coaches feel that way in my humble opinion. We have a difference of opinion.

My point is Barkley doesn't even have one full season of game starts ( 16 games ) playing for multiple teams and OC's. I don't know of many QB's who succeed without continuity or having enough previous game experience they also sucked at before they got better. 14 game starts suck and If McD and Co. didn't think Barkley could win football games he wouldn't be backing up Josh Allen IMO. Anything Fromm does is frosting on the cake...

Fair enough, Myself personally, I feel like Barkleys ceiling is still a bit of an unknown and I like what I see from him so far here in Buffalo. To me Buffalo has a backup in Barkley that our GM might be able to do something with via trade when the right situation approaches them IMO. For this to happen Fromm has to step up...

This is an example of the kind of pressure Tom Wolfe is under from state Rupublican leaders as the PA Governor rolls with the punches of Covid 19. https://www.foxnews.com/us/pennsylvania-gov-wolf-coronavirus-restrictions https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/us/governor-wolf-imposes-new-mitigation-efforts-in-pennsylvania/ar-BB16Mwwa Myself personally, in comparison to other states in the US I feel fortunate to be living in PA.
