Vikes and Titans suspend activities

[MinnesotaFats]

Covid positives 10+

[johnnyvegas13]

Saayyyyyy whhhaatrttt

Good thing neither plays Thursday. If protocols are same as MLB, they should play Sunday if no more positives BUT with no onfield prep before Friday at the earliest, so could sneak in one practice that day.

[Buckandadime]

Smh

[stake1]

How can the Steelers at Titans happen? Their facilities are closed, cannot practice at all

[Chi_archie]

this will make this an interesting week for fantasy football

[MinnesotaFats]

Have to assume they've already done the 2nd test here so there's going to be some dudes sitting Sunday

Post #3, COULD open Friday, but if not, they will just have to play with no practices assuming all clear by weekend. MLB teams have resumed play after 4-5 days, so not impossible. Plus pretty sure there will be some Zoom prep in regards to gameplanning

[stake1]

If the game is played, what intel it would be to know the 3 Titan players? Heritage has Pit@Ten "OTB". If it is Henry, Tannehill as two of their guys? It would be like winning the lottery if you are holding Steelers +2'

[Mac4Lyfe]

NFL: 3 Titans players test positive. Shut down facility

5 personnel also tested positive. They play Pittsburgh Sunday, which I was really looking forward to watching.

Look for "Undisclosed" on Injury Report

Understand about what Mlb did. But for a football team not being able to practice at all in person and prepare for their game? That is way different than not being able to take grounders and shag fly's. If the game is played, even if the Titan players lost are not premium players? The Titans are still screwed. Steelers are a team you need to have a good week of practice for to have a chance to beat them

[Mac4Lyfe]

Without a bubble, we are going to continue seeing these cases in NFL and CFB. The NFL should really consider a bubble for the playoffs. Stakes are too high for a team to get decimated a few days before a big game.

[stake1]

So outside linebackers coach Shane Bowen tested positive before the Titans flew to Minnesota, and they flew to play anyway?

[MinnesotaFats]

Shag flies lol

Love old school baseball talk

[lakerboy]

Why can't they just move the game to mnf?

Oops...

[MinnesotaFats]

Oops...

Yup

And given it's in suspended mode now I'm assuming they've sent the more intrusive 2nd test in now for both teams

I'm betting 50 plus dudes test positive

[Bostongambler]

Wow... Just when it was going along fine.

[Sam Odom]

Wow... Just when it was going along fine.

just in time for the debate tonight

[jjgold]

Fuk!!!

How many players on either team are 60+years of age? Isolate in a smart way off the field between games and PLAY BALL!

[Brock Landers]

bye week, reschedule the game for later this year

[shocka1212]

damn. hope they all recover well.

[Bluehorseshoe]

They're not getting a full season in with the second wave starting up. No chance.

[LT Profits]

Tough to do in NFL without shared bye week, it would require schedule changes

5 coaches tested positive.

[Sam Odom]

if no gm and no make up

all props with them are dead

[stake1]

Great point there Sam Odom. Team win totals would be scrap

Florio reporting the Titans are now closed until Saturday at the earliest. I think it is a matter of time before the game is cancelled. Do not see the Steelers even wanting to play them

[Unrivaled]

I bet none of the players or coaches have any symptoms.

[pologq]

not good. this could really snowball now. for the vikings hopefully no one caught it.

You’re missing the point of this. It spreads very quickly so you have to stop action in order for it to be contained. By stopping action you are possibly delaying or cancelling games. This isn’t mlb you can’t just have 30 doubleheaders.
If they just “play ball” like you say then I’m betting there would be over 500 cases in the span of 2-3 weeks and then at that point the season is over.
