  1. What the hell happened to this defense? I haven’t seen a regression like this since the Ryan brothers came to town.
  2. I don’t remember any false positives, but I do know that the testing technology has improved significantly in the past few months, and I’m pretty sure NFL’s is state of the art.
  3. Just read that Colts-Bears is being moved to the late slot, so you might be getting that one instead.
  4. Realistically, this kinda stuff is probably going to happen every week. The good news is that, from what I’ve read, the NFL is using the very best testing technology, and false positives are pretty unlikely. Hopefully after all these players make fast and full recoveries, the fear factor will start to recede.
  5. I would think that’s made easier by the fact that there are few, if any, fans at these games.
  6. I agree. It’s not going to be a normal season, but so far it has been as normal as one could hope. We need to understand that this virus is highly contagious, we don’t really know how it spreads, and testing positive is not a moral failing. The good news is that it’s highly likely that all these players who get it will recover quickly.
  7. No one watched the games, and the players absolutely hated being in the bubble, so much so that certain teams may have tanked just to get home early. I’ll grant you that it was a different situation, in that those leagues were hit mid-season. I think we can all agree that MLB is a joke.
  8. Agreed. Unless it’s a full-on outbreak, like in Tennessee, it should be treated just like any other illness or injury. Luck of the draw...
  9. So what? Not sure what their complaints were. They wouldn’t be very happy in a bubble, I’ll tell you that. I think the NFL’s Covid plan is by far the best of the lot. So far it’s actually worked really well. There were (and are) bound to be problems along the way, it’s worked better than I expected.
  10. Chiefs-Pats now off the board. Would be nice if they switch us to Bills-Raiders for the CBS afternoon game tomorrow.
  11. As much as we gripe about Roger, NFL is by far the best run of the major sports. Not really close, either.
  12. Not feeling great about my NE +7 play right now...
  13. Well, they were tested again this morning and still zero positive tests on the Vikings....So what’s your theory?
  14. This one really should not be close. Raiders are without their top 2 WRs, their best CB, and their best OT. Bills, 34-20, with the Raiders adding a garbage time score or two.
  15. How many of those games were played in an empty stadium?
  16. The difference is that you have to design a specific offensive system for Lamar. You can just drop Josh Allen into pretty much any NFL offense that’s ever been.
  17. Raiders are really banged up. As the injury news comes out, the line is likely to move even more toward the Bills... This looks like a Bills blowout....
  18. It's going to be a late first round pick. At that spot, it's unrealistic to expect to be able to find a difference-making pass rusher, regardless how much we might need one. It's likely that we use that pick on a safety or a cornerback, which will also be a position of need. I really want to see us spend a third or fourth on another TE.
  19. Unless Josh gets hurt, 9-7 should land some folks in the hot seat. That would be a very disappointing season at this point.
  20. Maybe we should ask “What did so many of the draft experts see in Sam Darnold?” Or “Why did the Giants draft a RB?”
  21. Vikings fans probably aren’t too upset with the trade either. Justin Jefferson looks like an absolute beast. Win-win!
