I haven't read to the end of the thread but this is what i think ..meaning question mark off Forfeit Yes if more positives come to bear beginning tomorrow..am I right folks?

 

Not sure I understood that sentence. But no, a forfeit is not the forgone conclusion if the Titans game can't be played Tuesday.

This seems absurd. You may be playing on Tuesday vs Tenn and then Sunday vs KC. But also be prepared to play just next Thursday vs KC. So if your prepping for a TENN game how can you also still prep f

okay thanks. My sentence was trying to reply to a post that questioned wether it would be a forfeit with questions mark like  this (?) so I was trying to say remove the question mark I thought they would forfeit if any new cases come to light. It was badly written my bad.

So out of market Sunday Ticket subscribers get screwed?  They would have shown the Sunday game, but I don’t think they show non-Sunday games?

 

The Titans game with be on national TV.

 

My guess is, so will the Chiefs.

dont get me wrong i understand the sentiment but the "Tuesday" contest is technically Primetime  and yet a day noone expects to watch football in primetime so likely (maybe) (Likely) smaller audience

I get that, but it was home in Buffalo vs on the road. You’re basically rewarding the Titans with a primetime game because they failed.

If this game goes off Tuesday. Suspensions and fines need to already be in place. No Vrabel in the building. No illegal practice players on the roster. 

 

Illegal practice players? You think they would bring in ringers that aren't on the roster?

I think that means a lot less without fans. They are going to have, what, 7k I think

Depending on how this whole crap-show ends up being scheduled, would it make sense to start playing around with some of our practice squad players-- considering how loyal I believe the majority of the Bills team to be, and how loose the practice squad rules are?

 

For example: if we end up with a short week between Chiefs (which will be "all hands on deck"), and the Jets (who will not be competitive but will be playing to injure), would it be wise to elevate some of the bruisers on the practice squad: Duke Williams, Trey Adams, Brian Cox Jr., etc vs. the Jets, and sit some of our more valuable players to be fresh the following week vs. the Pats*?

 

Idle thoughts...

No. We were gonna have short rest (3 days). Now we'll either get 4 or 10 days.

The disadvantage, if we play Tuesday/Sunday, is that instead of both bills and KC having 3 days like it would be with TNF, Bills would have 4 days (they play on the road at night on Tues and have travel back) and Chiefs have 7, playing Sunday at 1. Although, the Chiefs need to travel for Bills game and Bills dont. 
 

I just think we are going to see a lot of “unfair” stuff this year

As to no Vrabel in the building - that’s what I’ve seen floated a lot today online. And he deserves it 100%

Well played. I meant the guys who attended out of facility practices. 

 

 

Actually it wasn't well played. I just didn't get it. My bad, as in retrospect it was pretty obvious. I just didn't put it together.

And, of course, the flip side is: If the Titans game is cancelled/postponed further, the Bills will essentially have had a bye week, giving them the advantage.

Do we have an exact list of Titans players that won't be playing? 

 

Honestly this game should be cancelled. Its likely only going to happen because the Titans had a game already rescheduled...

 

Edit Titans should forfeit

The snark in me wants to say it would help them. But he didn’t hire a DC, and the LB coach who has been the de facto DC has Covid. I assume the OC would coach the game... people say he’s a hot HC candidate so

There is a list of guys on the Covid reserve list but it doesn’t define who will or won’t play because they can come off based on whether they have symptoms or test negative twice, 24 hrs apart.

Fair enough. Do we have a list of all the players that have tested positive?

You correcting my capitalization or implying it should still be Oakland? If the latter, I agree wholeheartedly.

I currently live in Vegas and prefer the Oakland Raiders out of tradition. That and I live 5 mins from the stadium and missed probably the only chance I’d see the Bills play here.

Don't worry, I imagine they'll be hosting a super bowl soon.

You can catch them then. :devil:

On the plus side Titans should be without a lot of starters/core players. Now this is a prime time game.  The Joe blow NFL fan will get to watch the Bills unleash a thrashing. There will be a lot more believers after Tuesday night league wide. Which only helps build the hype for a match up vs KC.
