I really, really don’t want a forfeit.  I honestly can’t emphasize how much I’d hate that.  
 

I think the Titans need to be dealt with by the league, but I’d rather add a Week 18, then get a cheap win. 


yeah once you start dabbling in forfeits you can go ahead and just slap that Asterisk Symbol next to the 2020 Season as a Tainted Season.

 

Although I have seen enough evidence over the years on MBs to know that many fans would rather play every other teams backups and third stringers...win...and then puff out their chest that they are a great team.

So the Titans are going to be the downfall of the NFL lol

 

First they have to buy votes to win a poll, than they didn't have enough money to go to the game and the Bills took that game over.

 

Now they trying to kill the NFL season by getting Covid.

 

Time they forfeit a game from this, the NFL shouldn't have to pause b.c of one teams problem.

Move Tennessee to Tuesday. Move Kansas City to Sunday night.


This is the move.  If Titans stay a dumpster fire, make them practice virtually and play with whoever they have left on Tuesday.

“Really ugly?” I mean, yeah, it’s not good, but 4 players out of 2,000+ isn’t exactly “really ugly” territory—because if it is, then what would we term, say, 200 players testing positive?

Super ugly?

Assuming that there will be other teams heavily impacted at some point, the league should just add a Week 18. Using the bye week for insurance is not enough. What happens if Pittsburgh, for example, has to have another game postponed or changed even though they had no positive tests?

I think we may be headed that way. It’s the most “logical” thing. It may not be fair that some teams need to play the week in between the playoffs, but this was never going to be a “fair” season

I reject that if only because I believe Tennessee is at fault here and cancelling the game makes them appear to be a blameless party to a tragedy.

Right, if the league finds they weren’t following protocol they may hand them an L. Not sure if they did indeed find proof of that

As much as I’d like to play this game if they can find an alternative date. Barring that what else do you do?  it should be forfeited, cancelled . It keeps the league moving forward without going crazy. It seems that even one or two positives per team has shown the ability to continue to play on..I mean if we are  talking  about an asterisk season well the pats already down a game as their starting qb couldn’t play. It’s just the reality of this year. . Right now this whole mess is pretty much a half a roster on one team.

I would hate to win a game by forfeit but a simple cancellation is unacceptable.  No matter how you rationalize it, the bottom line is that the Titans continue to keep having players come back infected.  A cancellation could have playoff implications that put the Bills at a potential disadvantage.  I'm sorry, but if there is a choice between the two it has to be a forfeit.

 Bet they are not happy in KC right now either...  

 

 

 

 

Ei-chi-wa-wa..  Pretty soon we are going to progress to the place where  teams just leave the field. No hand shakes or fist bumps or fights..

At this stage, it doesn't matter if they are to blame or not.  It's their players that continue to keep getting infected and a cancellation potentially puts Buffalo at a disadvantage in playoff scenarios.

Why is it so hard to play the Titans on Monday or Tuesday, then move the chiefs to Saturday or Sunday? That seems like an incredibly easy fix, as long as all other tests are negative

It’s certainly an option. If titans can get in facility to practice by Saturday.

 If the game is cancelled they have no choice but award a forfeit...    They are going to try everything to get the game played though...  the chance that it get cancelled and not rescheduled is almost zero.    

   Don't see how this puts at us a disadvantage??   they cant let one team play 15 games and the rest play 16.  NEVER going to happen.
