Having half the kids playing full speed while the other half hears the whistle is gonna hurt more people than COVID. Crank it tf up if you gotta do it this way

OR JUST USE frickING WHISTLES.


Of all the precautions being taken, not using actual whistles is the most retarded.

They are going to have to abandon this fantastic idea once they get to bigger stadiums with more fans. It’s already proving not to work with much smaller crowds

Not using a whistle has to be the most idiotic Covid precaution ever. And let me tell you, some stupid precautions have preceeded this one.

You clearly haven’t been watching games. There’s multiple issues in EVERY game.

For those of us not watching, what’s the deal with whistles?

They're using electronic whistles, and apparently they're not as loud.

And why can they not use real whistles?

Please tell me it’s because they have to blow into it and it could contribute to Covid. In layman’s terms, they are virtue signaling

real whistle, fake whistle, electronic, virtual... Idgaf....just make sure certain players aren't put at risk because the whistle wasn't lout enough.

On a lot of pre snap stoppages, maybe 4-5 players hear the whistle while the rest run the play. It’s resulted in a few unnecessary hits on guys going half speed. The viewer can hear them most of the time, but it’s clear most players can’t.

They just made the Miami tight end run 70 yards because he couldn't hear the whistle.
