Did they say that on the NFL Network?


 

Want to see that verified... Sunday means not only ignoring the previously given warning, but ignoring the League wide mandate that included forfeiture language... that changes the entire narrative big time.

I just want the Commish to get off his butt and announce what is going on with the game.  Week 5 starts officially tonight, you would think they would have an idea of if, where, and when this game is going to go on.

Wow if this is true they put the entire NFL at risk. Maybe they should have to forfeit the rest of their games. This goes beyond one stupid mistake.

 

That's about where I am at. They are already 0-3 3-0.

 

Just wipe them from this season, suspend the entire franchise, give all of their opponents Ws.

 

Go nuclear and make sure this crap doesnt happen anywhere else again.

 

edit: oops got that backwards!

I agree with this. I would also not award those as wins to their opponents but rather leave the Tennessee week as an extra bye week for each of those teams. They would all play 15 games and win percentage would be used. Further, I would have the Titans forfeit their 1st Round draft pick in 2021 and 2022 and have them draft last in every round that they still have a draft pick in 2021. 

 

Just like a forfeit, it is not my prefered option here, but if it happened it would be difficult to complain about. 

Another option is, that Tennessee gives up draft picks to teams that have cancelled. Start from the bottom and move up. 

Pitt gets a 7th. 
Buffalo gets their 6th. 
Keep it up and Houston gets a 5th. 
If they still cannot get their shirts together for the Pitt make up game, Pitt gets their 7th and 4th. 

Tennessee gets credit for the losses, but the innocent team does not get the wins.

In actual football news:

 

 

 

I have a strong conspiracy theory belief that Tre doesn't have a back injury and he has told the team he won't play in Tennessee. He almost opted out for the season because of COVID concerns. I don't blame him either, I wouldn't play this game.

We are wearing matching tin foil hats on this one man. I can't blame him either.

is there any other way?

I don’t know. I think they will move the game until Monday or Tuesday and then also find a way to move the chiefs game back to Saturday. But a lot of people are saying that can’t happen. There is very little precedent for what is happening right now. The titans are legitimately scumbags for doing this to the rest of the league.

I have a strong belief that maybe Tre's back has been bothering him for a while and he's just finally telling the team about it because that's the type of guy he is. The dude is a competitor and wants to be out there helping the team win.

To be fair, NOT believing something even when presented with clear and absolute evidence, is pretty common these days.

 

For example...

 

 

and this is after someone bought a laser gyroscope(reallly ***** expensive) because if the Earth is rotating there should be a 15 degree drift and low and behold what do they find, a 15 degree drift. Can't end the documentary on that better try some other experiment.🤣

@YoloinOhio @Hapless Bills Fan

 

at this point, do we have any clue if it’s even possible for the game to go as scheduled on Sunday? What would have to happen? 

They would need to have no positives tomorrow, And no positives Saturday (they get the results at 4:30am), then Open facility and have a full practice on Saturday.

On that second tweet, I thought it was very telling that through all the Season Hype videos the different teams put out this summer during Training Camp, the Bills were the only team I saw who were 100% following proper protocol in EVERY shot. Like it was noticeable how strict we were being. Masks on and covering the nose in every shot. No other team was 100%, and they were selectively edited videos!

 

That is all culture and Sean McD.

 

We are in very good hands.

Because what we should definitely do for the Titans is lessen the restrictions to get to play on Sunday because this makes so much ***** sense.

No I haven't.  In theory there should have been no one in there.  But at this juncture, can anyone really trust the Titans?

 

Call me credulous, but I hadn't thought of that. 

Hmmm.  Aren't there surveillance cameras to which the league has access?  In a memo that now the recordings must be kept for 30 days?

 

So we wouldn't need to trust them on that?

I wonder if this became a thing because of issues they had with them.

I would say at this point there is no way this game happens on Sunday.

 

We aren't hearing the plan because I'm quite sure THERE IS NO PLAN as of right now.

 

All parties involved are probably working feverishly to find a way to make this work.

 

I think there is going to be some type of huge sanction coming to the Titans organization for creating this mess and not following protocols.   But for now, that's a side issue relative to the scheduling complications.

Does anyone actually believe that Meat Head Vrabel didn’t know his players were getting together to practice? 

 

Hey!  I can't hear you!  I got a banana in my ear!

If there's one thing a veteran of The Patriot Way knows how to do, it's get rid of tape.  Or make the tape so damaging the league trashes it for you

Titans are scumbags. They should 100% forfeit these games and the NFLPA should negotiate to get the Steelers and Bills paid. These are not unforeseen circumstances, this is morons not following rules and screwing up the season for everyone else.

Folks here should be aware that the NFL isn't looking to "punish" any specific team at least in terms of scheduling.

 

I'm not sure folks here understand that all parties involved want ALL GAMES TO BE PLAYED NO MATTER WHAT.

 

They will continue to stall and debate until they can find a way to play the games.

 

Forfeiture is the absolutely last possible alternative for the NFL.

Sounds contrarian just for the sake of it. We disagree.

I heard that Meat Head gets a new phone every 6 months and conveniently his new one came in 10/1

I’m not totally discounting that. I find it a bit odd that he was not even stretching. Literally hasn’t been seen since after the game on Sunday. Maybe that’s normal for back injuries.

My god... Norman hesitated like he just rounded the corner at Tops and saw that girl he ghosted last month... 

Dare I say, Stefon Diggs has the sweetest moves in the NFL.  His footwork is unmatched. He may not be the biggest or the fastest receiver in the league, but he is simply UNGUARDABLE...
