Now if we could just hurry up and get a dang vaccine.

The last thing you want is a hurried vaccine.

This is good but not as good as it’s made out to be. Considering it won’t be in a bubble like the NHL. So quick tests still don’t = people either being or not being sick.

It is HUGE because it should really limit outbreaks. Agreed that you do't want to rush a vaccine. Even one that isn't rushed will come with potential dangerous side effects. 

It’s just a test though. If there is outbreaks it doesn’t do anything to change games still being  called off. If there is an outbreak. It just says ok we know sooner. Without full bubble, there are simply too many variables. Young guys wanting to go out, family guys seeing their family who have come in contact with people at school, at the grocery store, etc etc. now add in the element of travel. Unlike the NBA and NHL, who have boxed their entire atmosphere in. You go to the hospital? That’s two weeks before you can rejoin the bubble, at the least. This is why I have no idea why the NFL isn’t doing a 4 stadium bubble.

50% effective vaccines

are still very helpful.

I’ll pass.  There has never been an effective vaccine for any RNA virus and this one will be no different.  Stop wasting time waiting on something that isn’t going to happen.

Where do you get this stuff? 
 

The measles and the flu are both RNA viruses. The MMR (measles) vaccine is quite effective.

The leading candidates arent all RNA vacccines. Of the 5 leading candidates there are 2 RNA type vaccines.

      Comparing a random stat to another rookie QB has nothing to do with the current subject.  Tom Brady had a 6.0 YPA his rookie year.  I hope you're not using one stat to define success of a QB? It's not a problem to want him to do better based on where he was drafted although I still contend it doesn't matter after the fact.  It doesn't matter if we're talking about Cam Newton, Tom Brady, Russel Wilson or any other QB.  It makes little difference once you're in the NFL.  Nobody gets a ring for where they were drafted.   Higher draft picks will get a little more time in most cases as teams want to make sure they've exhausted all avenues before they admit a draft pick can't play.  Other teams might pick them up thinking it wasn't the player but the organization and/or other coaches that caused the player not to succeed.  It's people's expectations that are wrong.  If we could go back and redo all the draft and put guys in the correct draft spot based on how well they played in the NFL, that would be nice.  Then your argument would make some sense.  People assume that where a player was drafted is a statement on how good that player is when the reality is there is a lot more luck than skill in drafting. If Coker turns into a pro bowl receiver and XL becomes a bust nobody cares except fans and the media. What we really should say is it's not too much to expect a player who has started at QB for a team over the last 2 years to be better than he currently shows.   Don't compare 1st round picks.  Compare starting QB's in the NFL.

      Defense is turning around?

      By electro's horse · Posted

      They’re gonna have to go up against a real offense before any kind of judgement can be made of them.  Tlaw looks like damaged goods, Kyler is completely washed, and Penix….well…. they look better compared to last season but that’s what you’d expect with a healthy brown and horn.  I haven’t seen anything that indicates they’ll be considered an overall good defense when the dust has settled. 2002 it is not.
