I certainly hope so, because it is pretty ridiculous.

Move Titans-Steelers to Monday night to give them more prep time, and move Falcons-Packers back to Sunday. Everybody wins.

We still don’t know enough about this novel virus to know with any certainty the incubation period. There was some evidence of people not showing symptoms until 14 days after exposure, hence the current guidelines. The CDC is trying to stop community spread of the virus, it’s not ridiculous to be cautionary on the NFL’s part

It would be a PR nightmare for the league if a major city wide outbreak was traced back to a team

League source confirms that the Titans' eight positive COVID tests today are CONFIRMED positives. The chance of false positives have been ruled out. So this is the first NFL's first team outbreak


Looks like Steelers-Titans is canceled then. Media will have a field day with this.

Just imagine if their coach didn't wear a mask on the sideline, then everyone would be dead!!!

If you're testing negative and aren't symptomatic the likelihood of spreading this virus is REMOTE.

Test them every day, take temperature before practice, make them attest to not having symptoms, and clean ones get to play/coach.

It isn't that hard.

So people who tested negative don't get to play because 5 people tested positive. What kind of bullshite borg like bullshite is going on? If you test positive don't play, test negative you play. This is not computer science guys. You are not upgrading the motherboard, CPU, RAM and Graphics Card. you are throwing pigskin around you goofy fricks.

I ignore all messages that start with "out of an abundance of caution"

What usually follows is drivel.
