Any chance there is some grievance then can file with the NFLPA about a hazardous work condition? Putting myself in their shoes, I wouldn’t have any interest in being around the Titans facility or players right now. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Look, I'm not saying it's been easy, but all this kerfluffle could have a positive side for the Bills as well, don't over look that. There's a chance the Bills may get a "questionable" player or two back who wouldn't otherwise play or who would play more hindered We have a few extra days for everyone to heal up, and we get an extra day for the KC game Perhaps most important, while people point at the Titans as a revved up motivated team with something to prove, having to go through the wringer on scheduling and actually prepare and study two game plans is more or less unheard of, and surly a point of adversity that our coaches will turn into an extra layer of motivation for us. And we really don't know yet what happened in Tenn. that was improper or against the protocols and how it contributed to the outbreak. 18 minutes ago, Motor26 said: I could care less about the Titans conditioning.

I care because it is a player safety issue respectfully, Hap, it has nothing to do with the dates of these games for me right now. The s*** show of how the titans organization has been going about this and the NFL’s efforts to accommodate them (and it is to accommodate the sinner) is. as far as dates do go I am one of the people who was pressing hard that the chiefs and bills game should be played on Monday.

This is exactly why IMHO the NFL ought to open up and be transparent. It may all make sense given details of timing of the positive tests and the known exposures.

Yes the time off may help them recover from some injuries, but not the same as true team practices. A few sessions in shorts isn't the same particularly since players were without a pre-season and mini camp. If I were the Bills I'd run the hurry-up as much as they can and test their conditioning. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PromoTheRobot Posted October 12, 2020 Share Posted October 12, 2020 (edited) And now for something completely different... The Sabres pulled a coup tonight signing Taylor Hall, the consensus top free agent in the NHL. They were the last team anyone expected to sign him. They were the last team Hall was expected to join because he said he was looking to play for a winner. But apparently two things attracted him. 1) Playing with Jack Eichel, and 2) Playing for head coach Ralph Krueger again. He played for RK in Edmonton and he was his favorite coach. It was an incredible move by new GM Kevyn Adams, who just this morning Mike Harrington in the Buffalo News declared was D.O.A. based on day one of free agency, were he basically signed a couple depth players, while letting 2 players Jason Botterill traded for just walk out the door for nothing. A real mic drop moment. Let's hope Kevyn Adams pulled a Brandon Beane and got a Diggs for his Allen.
