As of right now, the TL is the same as the Titans
Last Friday, one player tested positive bit nobody else did. They proceeded with the game against Minnesota. Then this week, some 20+ other members of the org start popping up positive including some as late as yesterday I believe.

Newton is huge, we don't need a third of the team out.

They won't shut it down as long as the TV money keeps flowing in. Do you think these billionaires care about the players? It's about the cash and only about the cash. They'll squeeze every dollar out that they can. If they have to extend the Super Bowl out to March, they will. Just bring in the cash.

Might as well just cancel the season - it’s not like this isn’t going to keep happening Baseball and Basketball showed you can do it, it's on the players and coaches to make it work. The league also, shut things down for a week and stop the spread. You'd hope they learn from the Titan's. They should have added a few weeks to the year to allow make up games, instead of trying to do what they are doing.

They should have added a few weeks to the year to allow make up games, instead of trying to do what they are doing. Basketball is a bad example as they played in a “bubble”. They also started during a time most of the country was shutdown. Baseball is better but it’s basically a no contact socially distanced sport. Also roughly half the number of people. My guess is the social circles of football are a lot larger than baseball. It’s easier to do nothing when you have a game every night. I only said might as well shut down the entire season, because if you are going to close it down for 1-2 weeks every time you get some cases like this, the season will take forever and it’s going to get worse this winter. Buckle up.

I only said might as well shut down the entire season, because if you are going to close it down for 1-2 weeks every time you get some cases like this, the season will take forever and it’s going to get worse this winter. Buckle up. That's on the players. They need to limit that contact, especially close to game day. An early week positive like on Monday could give you enough time, ones on Saturday just don't. It's like Baseball if players are going to go out partying it will never work. Hopefully like with Baseball this gets the league to enforce stricter rules and it's a wake up call for the players. It only gets worse if people don't take it seriously and don't limit contacts. You opted in, in my opinion that means you've signed up to do just that. Going to Thanksgiving and Christmas with your family, get them tested and tell them to limit contact before hand. Got friends that aren't taking it seriously, you need to stay away. Crap can still happen, yet Baseball showed that you can really limit it if you want to and the players buy in. One week is fine if your smart, not talking that week can turn into the Titan's and you don't want that. Baseball isn't a social distance sport either, they are close in the batter box and on the bases. They are close in the dugout and club house. It's not Good or Tennis. The total players were actually fairly close when you add in the other training site. Along with the fact the Red Sox brought in a bunch of people and cycled through them.

Not sure what to make of them planning on going with Hoyer over Stidham... That isn't surprising given the limited Camp, no preseason and the fact Stidham got injured and didn't even have a full camp. I would expect that they will sprinkle him in though. Allowing them to use plays when a QB runs. Stidham certainly fits the current offense better than Hoyer, he just needed preseason games to get ready. Reports have been very good, with McDaniels praising his progress and work ethic.

Pats are 11 point underdogs.
I think we'll get to finally see Harris. Good time to throw him in.
Chiefs are expecting to see the Pats run a lot. Will structure their defense on that. BB knows that. So...

Michel is one of the most injury prone RBs ever. He finally looks good and healthy, then gets injured again.
I can't wait to see if we just get Hoyer or they sprinkle in Stidham.

Gunner traveled with the team and Harris' IG account (it was tweeted out by Mark Daniels. I dont stalk players) suggest he could be activated. Should find out soon.

He's had off-season surgery for three straight years. When healthy like his rookie year after surgery or last game he looks like the guy we drafted. Yet you don't get that guy every week. Just when it looked like he was 100% from foot surgery, he's not 100% again. If he could stay healthy or close to it, he's a good RB. We just rarely see it and it seems to be getting worse.

Bill O'Brien fired. I think I picked him to be first coach fired last season. Guess I was off by a year. He failed upward until now. (College coach, head coach, GM, playcaller). Wonder where he lands.

No Mason... why are we even playing... also, The fact Ference is starting at center and not Froholdt now makes me worried about him

Refs are such pathetic excuses for human beings. Literally the biggest scum on earth.
