For the NFL fans here. Just because we've had no football to talk about for 10 months. The only thing we have is the NFL. I want to at least talk about football. The Chiefs look like the real deal again while the Texans look like also rans so the football world is unfolding the way it should. They had 15,000 fans at Arrowhead Stadium this evening & the social distancing & masking didn't look good. I think they should have played the games this season without fans in the stands. If anything derails this season it'll be Covid. If a lot of fans get sick the season will be over.

They're moving it to Tuesday, I believe. 

So a 2 day postponement? Given that COVID quarantine is typically 14 days, that seems completely useless.

Sounds like it's being postponed to later in the season now. 

 

Jets are terrible, Darnold doesn't have much help but for a top draft pick he got out played by Mark Rypien's nephew who I never heard of until this week

Thursday Night football for the most part are terrible games. I gave this game a pass. 

And on and on it goes...

 

I think games being postponed going forward is the new norm.

16 Titan players now testing positive.....Patriots and Chiefs reporting infections and cancellation.....Americans have not got a hold of this thing and if covid keeps rearing it's ugly head the NFL are going to have to do a re-think about this season

Either that or they keep postponing games playing them at a later date and we will a Superbowl sometime in March

.......or later....maybe by training camp 21

 

I think there will be no Super Bowl played...but the winner will be the last team standing.

I had thought the same thing about MLB when they had massive outbreaks in the first week. Everyone was saying they won't last. This will get completely shut down. But they found a way.... And I'm sure NFL will too. There's just way too much money at stake.

Players & coaches have to take it seriously. Coaches like Jon Gruden pulling their masks down constantly or Andy Reid using a face shield without a mask has to stop. Are players finding ways to sneak into bars after hours? Until everyone buys into the protocols this won't stop. 

Sounds like a Saints player had a positive test tonight

Second test on said player is negative looks like the game is a go.

I watched the first 2 'Hard Knocks' last night. A huge part of it is how the NFL is handling Covid-19 this year. With all that they are doing, people are still getting sick and games are being postponed. A really interesting show, give it a try.

That's a hell of team you have put together there Jerrah, my poor Cowboys have no answers getting blasted at home

The Strevellers.... lost two consecutive.boo.

Alex Singleton with a pick 6, really only plays special teams but was in a defensive package

Alex Singleton with the game winning Pick 6 for the Eagles tonite. Nice to see the former Stamps player doing well. Too bad it was against the 49ers but whatever I guess.

  I don't watch the Eagles much so I'm not sure if last night was an anomaly or not but he was on the field quite a bit last night (at least in the 2nd half).  

**Edit - the Eagles starting MLB got injured during the game and did not return which is why Singleton got in there as much as he did**

Little different in baseball where its easy to make up ppd games with double headers

It was nice to see him get more reps and play well.

I disagree. It was not nice to see him play well.
