D. L. Hot-Flamethrower Posted October 7, 2020 Share Posted October 7, 2020 I think they'll shut the Titans down. If they can or need to make up the game, deal with it down the road. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The game gets played this week, in a Week 18, or not at all. Or hey pause the season and come up with a new plan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigvinny Posted October 7, 2020 Share Posted October 7, 2020 “Protocol violations that result in virus spread requiring adjustments to the schedule or otherwise impacting other teams will result in additional financial and competitive discipline including the adjustment or loss of draft choices or even the forfeit of a game,” Goodell said in a memo sent to teams on Monday Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YoloinOhio Posted October 7, 2020 Author Share Posted October 7, 2020 (edited) I think, regardless of if or when this game is played, it won’t he played this weekend, and the Bills will have a bye week ahead of TNF game against the chiefs and that is decidedly a competitive advantage. Chiefs play raiders Sunday, then short prep time for Bills. Throw in a week of rest for Milano... Edited October 7, 2020 by YoloinOhio 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Giuseppe Tognarelli Posted October 7, 2020 Share Posted October 7, 2020 Am I the only one concerned that the Bills might get punished because of the McKenzie video? Am I missing something? Why were McKenzie and Barkley maskless in that video? Aren't they required to wear masks inside the facility? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MAJBobby Posted October 7, 2020 Share Posted October 7, 2020 10 minutes ago, Realist said: Don't think they can forfeit, basically because that's not fair to the Steelers. Steelers are forced to play them and Bills get a free win is really not feasible. Personally think week 18 should be added to play any games that are forced to move and can't be worked out to play during the season. I believe, back when they started the offseason, NFL said they could move the Superbowl back as far as March if they absolutely had to. At some point they can toss Fairness Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Richard Noggin Posted October 7, 2020 Share Posted October 7, 2020 I'm sneaking in a quick vacation in Ithaca, so the game being moved or otherwise not played Sunday works in my favor. Selfishly speaking, of course (which is the U.S. native tongue). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CEN-CAL17 Posted October 7, 2020 Share Posted October 7, 2020 Why they didn’t add 2 bye weeks to the schedule is beyond me. As well as pushing the SB to mid Feb.... 4 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldmanfan Posted October 7, 2020 Share Posted October 7, 2020 I will be stunned if we play the Titans game anytime soon. Way too many positive cases there. I’d also be stunned if we don’t see positive later this week given that Hurst from the Raiders was spreading virus during the game Sunday. I thought when this started we’d see the beginning but not the end of the season. Hope I’m wrong but it’s heading that way 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So its possible these two players didnt interact with others this whole time right? Correct. It's also possible their positive test still could stems from exposure at the team facility.

Move the Super Bowl back a week and have a week 18 for all COVID impacted games that couldn’t be rescheduled during the season. The only issue with this is some playoff teams will get an extra week rest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
