What will a 2020 NFL season look like?


Jmac

Recommended Posts

With this pandemic dragging on without a vaccine in sight and a drug combo un-tested, will this season even happen? And if it does and the NFL is determined to play, what will it look like? Obviously they can't be having a stadium full of fans elbow to elbow. Is there anyway they can make it work without a delay or total cancelation??

 

Opinions and ideas please...

Impossible to predict. Maybe some of these early promising anti-viral trials turns into an effective treatment for this thing and a lot of the danger subsides. Maybe summer temps and humidity combined with social distancing measures largely curbs the wildfire like spread of this thing and then it doesn't come roaring back this fall. Then again, maybe it does.

We'll just have to wait and see. I don't think there's any outcome that would surprise me from season played out as usual to games played in empty stadiums to no NFL season at all next season.

If they played in empty stadiums with only TV broadcast, wonder how they would handle PSL holders?

Maybe the Season Ticket scenerio goes nationwide  as a stand alone streaming service with higher rates? Would you buy into this concept to have NFL football with empty stadiums to still have a season?

The GOAT. By the way the flu has killed way more people.

So let me get this straight...

You seek validation about a global virus that is in its early stages--one that medical doctors warn us to avoid---by quoting an NFL player?  Did you know that the rate of full recovery from the flu is 100 times higher than this virus?  Did you know that the flu stat is a quote that many cited after they spewed for weeks that it was a hoax?

While you tell us not to watch the news, I can tell you right now which news channel you watch.

    • Yeah and I am doubtful he can offer that consistently. I don’t have many years left at my age and in my view we have wasted two and this whole exercise with him was always a three year minimum.  I am out on that with a guy I don’t believe in, and never believed in, it has sucked. To me it is a costly detour off the right track. Years.    But I am not so rigid that I can’t see excellence. He needs to display it though, consistently before I change my outlook.  
    • No, when I said rage, I meant rage, which only applies to certain fans on this board. Your timeline of trying to assess whether he is the future or not is really tied to the discussions surrounding his second contract. If this team is going to commit to some monster contract while he has shown nothing but glimpses of brilliance would be deservedly worrisome, so the clock is genuinely ticking for him to settle into something resembling his final form. Perhaps a best case scenario is that he plays well, the team succeeds, but he does so with a more limited role that makes the rest of the league view him as a game manager, and his second contract value reflects that. Then he continues to improve and becomes a bargain comparatively while not handicapping the team around him, and we enter an era of consistent championship competitiveness that the fanbase has craved for decades and has never really experienced before. But that requires many, many things to go right and for Bryce himself to facilitate that if he ends up being the quarterback of the future.
    • Exactly. And the flame throwers as well, get location benefits from not going all out. But they have it in reserve.  Not sure how much Greg had but he was an artist.  There was a YouTube I came across last year or maybe even 2023 and I don’t how to even find now but it had two NFL QBs I want say one was Carr from the Raiders but I don’t really remember  The point of it is they stood side by side throwing identical distances to identical targets. Radar gun was used.  They threw the normal effort (not all out) and it was measured etc. Then they were asked to throw their ‘fastball’. They were missing and most often they were missing high. It demonstrated the same principle.    edit: and applying that to arm strength, give me the guy that doesn’t need max effort to have good velocity. The margins are so narrow with less velocity in tne NFL the defenders can Close on it and this is a league where they value down to the 100th of a second level. It is that tight
