I don't understand why it can't be a MNF game. League certainly has a love of Mahomes right now and considering that MNF Week 6 is Dallas vs Arizona I doubt anyone would object to Fox having a lead in to that stinker 

I don’t know for sure, but this is my guess. Fox owns that match up. I am assuming contractually, Fox can’t just go ahead and air another Monday night game against ESPN or a Sunday Night game against NBC. Fox is basically locked in to Thursday night or Sunday at 1 or 4.

I'm less worried about the advantage to the Chiefs than I am the punishment for the Titans. I hope they bury their asses.

I mean you might be right but CBS just did that so I fail to see the issue. Have Bills/Chiefs kick off 90-120 minute before MNF is scheduled to start.

Let KC have their extra practice day. I hope they practice poorly, and leave the practice field with a sense of disappointment and shame.

 

May they miss their throws, let the fumbles hit the dirt, and I hope their lunches are described as "uninspired and lacking direction" from the chef.

The league should force the Titans to hire Adam Gase as their next HC once he gets canned from the Jets. It should be a 20 year contract and the Titans will not be allowed to fire him at any point.

Does anybody else feel like this game is the NFL's Fyre Fest? 

Can we get our airport and tempo guys to make sure that Goodell stays off his knees around customs officers?

So tennesse will be without a good chunk of players if we play Tuesday?

This is where I'm getting confused. I know the ones on IR for covid are out, Humphries and Davis are the biggest names on offense, Simmons and Corea(sp?) on defense. But as I asked before, what happens to those caught on camera i.e. Tannehill, Brown etc

[Greg S]

If this game is played on Tuesday then will another game be moved to Thursday or just no TNF next week?

I would have to guess no TNF game.

The Chiefs get extra rest/prep time for the Bills because the Titans screwed up.  That sounds pretty fair.

 

It's an absolute joke and there is no justifying it. 

 

 

we’re in the midst of a pandemic.  Not everything is going to be fair this year. Some teams will get screwed.  In this case, we got screwed.  Maybe we’ll be on the other end next time

[Brianmoorman4jesus]

I wonder if we would get romo and nance on a stand alone cbs primetime Tuesday?

I heard that they can’t be identified in a court of law, so they can all play.

It's more like the NFL's wheels of justice grind slow.  Finish an investigation in a week and take prompt action? 

 

UN-possible!

If they don't test positive they can play. But a confirmed positive test means you sit for 14 days, symptoms or not.

I doubt it; announcers prep all week for one game. They'll probably keep who we already have.

Mango, did you ever think all the problems associated with wrangling this stuff out (even forfeits and lengthening the season) aren't as much to do about football, but rather everything to do with contracts and lawyers?

Will this game be national televised or just shown in local markets?
