Wallyhorse Posted October 7, 2020 Share Posted October 7, 2020 The NFL needs to announce there will be a Week 18 if necessary to make games up with the playoffs other than the Super Bowl pushed back one week and there being only one week between the conference title games and Super Bowl. I also wrote the "pandemic realignment" that I would have done this year that would have had the Eagles in a division with Washington, the Ravens and Panthers for this season only (Giants in AFC East with the Jets, Pats and Bills and Cowboys to an NFC South with the Saints, Texans and Titans). In this format, teams would have played the others in their division four times (and where possible, road games in back-to-back weeks against the same team with the road team not traveling back between games, including where the second meeting is their Thursday game) and against the corresponding division in the other conference once (also to reduce travel).

EaglesIreland Posted October 8, 2020 Share Posted October 8, 2020 I’d be fine with the Titans forfeiting their game with the bills this weekend because at some point a marker needs to be put down about this stuff. It’s a situation of their own making by their players holding private workouts when their own practice facility closed because of a covid outbreak. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they held a workout while they should have been quarantined they should absolutely forfeit this game. Otherwise, the whole league needs to pause 1 week for this.

You want to skirt the rules and have workouts when a sizable chunk of people in your organization have tested positive for Covid-19, then screw you. Forfeit time. The Bills would likely beat them down anyways, but a message needs to be sent and an example needs to be made. People can debate lockdowns and masks and everything else Covid related till they're blue in the face, but everyone knew it was going to take some special protocols and a whole lot of discipline to make it through an NFL season with minimal interruptions. This is reckless stupidity. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
