Motorin' Posted January 2, 2021 Share Posted January 2, 2021 All I know is if Josh, god forbid, tests positive, the Bills should have a plan in place to force a rescheduled game. Not sure what it would take, but maybe 54 guys saying there were close contacts. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CorkScrewHill Posted January 2, 2021 Share Posted January 2, 2021 Two things I wonder about: 1) will they stop the needless hand shaking after games .. it is bizarre how they have all these protocols in place but then after the game they are hugging and otherwise getting close to the other team. Simply maddening. 2) will players who already tested positive be exempt from the close contact protocol? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just don’t understand why it’s ok for a mod to contribute judgement towards a player for getting Covid. This is unnecessary imo. I’m admittedly touchy about this topic, but it just doesn’t across good, and I’m genuinely not trying to be difficult. Just voicing my opinion, and I’m done.

Rocky Landing Posted January 2, 2021 Share Posted January 2, 2021 (edited) On the bright side, all players use a proximity recording device to facilitate contact tracing while on the premises, so we would probably already know if this affected other players availability. I would hope. Edited January 2, 2021 by Rocky Landing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean you lose 2-3 stars and that could be your season. There’s a few weeks left (hopefully) so just get it together and follow some rules it’s not that hard I’d bet that Kroft WAS diligently following all protocols. You don’t just get Covid from hanging out with crowds. He is a stand up, hard working, follow the rules to a T kinda guy from all we’ve seen. Your thoughts here are pretty short sighted 2 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your thoughts here are pretty short sighted Yeah we don't know ***** I mean this thing is everywhere people are going to catch it and not for nothing but we've been pretty fortunate on this team. If we're randomly speculating I'd say Kroft was much more likely to catch it from family coming over the holidays to see that brand new baby than he was out partying in crowds. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since1981 Posted January 2, 2021 Share Posted January 2, 2021 Millions of $ at stake for players etc How hard is it to isolate for a few more weeks? Do a TRAINING CAMP style competitive advantage? take an already closed St John Fisher style college and stay in TRAINING CAMP style bubble for a few weeks or even until FEB! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ironically, Kroft was our one active TE for the 2nd Jets game after Becker, Sweeney, and Smith were all considered close contacts of Knox. He was also considered a close contact of someone else who got it - Josh Norman? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
