Hall of Fame Game is cancelled

The NFL Hall of Fame game is cancelled. 

Officially it is the first NFL casualty to Covid-19 

 

The NFL Preseason will not start on time. This puts the on time start to the season in real doubt. 

 

If you want football, wear a damn mask in public. If we all do that, we can have nice things again.

I saw on the news this morning an "anti-mask" protest in Arizona, led by a Scottsdale city council member. Arizona has the fastest rising rate of infections in the US. I used to be skeptical that the NFL season would even be delayed. After see this level of stupidity, I will be surprised if there is any football played this year.

Why is the US having the worst pandemic experience by far despite having first world medical resources?

Draw yourself this Venn diagram:

three circles with heavy overlap.
One labeled high emphasis On personal freedom.

One labeled low emphasis on personal responsibility.

The third just labeled Amount of Stupid.

The area where they intersect label: Craptacular pandemic response.

Sadly it's the anti mask league all over. They will tank the economy and football will be another casualty of their stupidity and self righteousness. I think the saying goes 'opinions are like buttholes, everyone has one and some share the smell and view.'

Wear the damn masks and wash your damn hands.

I wonder when the Panthers will start issuing refunds?  At this point they can't make season ticket holders attend games against their will or else forfeit ticket money.  I know teams will hold out as long as they can, but it seems even if limited attendance is allowed, people that want refunds should be able to get them with no questions asked.

The ironic thing is that those same people were the ones clamoring the loudest for re-opening. Somehow they couldn't wrap their little pea brains around the idea that wearing masks was the fastest and surest way to re-open the economy.

We are short-sighted and selfish people.

They will probably handle it like some of the ticket agencies my friend has been dealing with.  She had tickets to several different events.  When it was clear the events weren't going to happen, she requested a refund.  They basically told her until the day the event doesn't take place, she's not due a refund.  Then the date would come and go, and they'd issue her a refund several weeks after the event didn't happen.

I never thought there would be a season to start with. But how does this effect next years NFL draft? Do we all pick in the same spot as the last draft, or is there a lottery?

Who will there be to draft though? NCAA won't have a season and schools might not even be in session, lol.

They aren't self righteous. They are ignorant, lazy, and spiteful.

    • The Panthers did a great job of countering the Falcons' pass rush in the run game. They utilized veteran wideout David Moore, a good run blocker on the perimeter, as the motion man to help with crack-toss plays and trap blocks. It was also interesting to see more Sean McVay wide zone concepts in Canales’ version, especially with the “insert” concept that is a table in these systems.   Second-year cornerback Chau Smith-Wade didn’t come out of the gates hot, but settled in and put forth a fine performance. His spacing in zone coverage tightened up and it began to have an impact later on—like on his pick-six of quarterback Michael Penix Jr. He also showcased good matching capabilities while having some impressive man reps and tackles in space. You have to appreciate how well Ejiro Evero’s defense rallied to the football. Some runs that would, in the past, go for chunk yardage were contained. Tackling was improved on all three levels of the field. Wide receiver Tetairoa McMillan was once again the leader in receiving yards (48) on Sunday, but he struggled away from the box score with a couple of drops. As head coach Dave Canales noted Monday afternoon, the Falcons did a great job staying in phases on McMillan, especially at the top of routes. Rookie safety Lathan Ransom showed more flashes of control as a tackler. He continues to show the physicality that is needed in Evero’s defense while having the athleticism and downhill burst to click and close sideline to sideline or north/south. https://pantherswire.usatoday.com/story/sports/nfl/panthers/2025/09/23/panthers-film-review-falcons-week-3/86308214007/
    • Horn + Jackson + Smith-Wade might be the best CB trio we've had in a minute.
    • I think we would have had a good shot. I believe at the time we had already traded for the first overall pick, so Baltimore could have then immediately get whatever replacement they wanted for Lamar in the draft or trade for someone else. I still am baffled we were one of the teams that put out that ridiculous statement about not pursuing Lamar.   Yeah, let’s not trade for the franchise carrying, mvp winning, all pro top 5 qb in league to help take this franchise higher places. They should have at least tried. They were willing to go all in on Watson but not Lamar, I don’t understand Tepper.
