The Bus driver for the Titans tested positive for Covid. 

Quote

 

The bus driver who drove the Tennessee Titans to their game last weekend in Minnesota, and who also drove MLB's Houston Astros on their trip for a playoff series this week against the Minnesota Twins, tested positive for COVID-19, NFL Network's Tom Pelissero reported Thursday per sources informed of the situation.

After news of multiple Titans players and personnel testing positive for COVID-19 surfaced, the Astros removed the driver, Pelissero added.

"We are aware of the situation and are comfortable that all of our health and safety protocols have been followed," Major League Baseball said in a statement.

 

I was wondering how on earth Covid spread to a NFL team out of no where. So difficult for it to spread outdoors and under the highly precautious protocols indoors at the stadiums. 

 

But the Bus. THE BUS. No better place for Covid to spread. Small, enclosed space with lots of folks for half an hour? Yep, that will do it. Covid's wet dream.

And this right here is why I say anyone trying to predict draft order 3 games into the season is fooling themselves. COVID is a random variable of far greater magnitude than any seen in the history of the game. This incident could be its greatest impact on the season or it could only be the beginning. There is no way to know for sure because the situation is without precedent.

They may want to consider extending that testing to pretty much anyone who will be in contact with the teams.

I would be throwing n95 masks and goggles on every player for every bus and plane trip. Pretty much take away any chance of this happening again at such a low low cost.

Not necessarily trying to go off on a tangent, but thousands of kids across North Carolina will be getting on buses soon enough. Moreover, according to a recent very thorough study in India, kids spread coronavirus essentially as much as adults do, so...We're about to enter a crazy situation.

      An honest look at Bryce Young

      By OneBadCat · Posted

      Cam was hitting his stride as a QB in 2017/2018.     This is why I think stats like completion percentage are overrated. As long as a QB is clutch and makes the throws to win the game the rest doesn’t really matter. What good is a check down stat padder if they’re a choker.  Until Norv Turner (and briefly Chud) got here we put Cam in high pressure throwing situations all the time. We also ran the ball on first down more than most teams in the NFL in the Ron era. Coupled with shitty WRs, all that is expressed in his stats. I also assume Cam took the ball in his hands on many occasions rather than trust Funchess to catch the ball.    It was also never Cams job to play the game like someone else. His presence on the field dictated the game in a way that is rarely seen.  He showed he could play the dink and dunk game just before TJ Watt. That didn’t suddenly make him better than his earlier seasons. He just got put in a legit under center  passing game again for first time since his rookie year with Chud.    Ron took the quickest path to success and abused the RPO because his ass was about to get fired.    Cam never got the credit for being the cerebral player that he was. I just think when you are legitimately a human Superman, sometimes the best play is having the ball in your hands. He was a better passer than Delhomme was.

      I don't think Canales has any problem benching Bryce or moving on if Bryce doesn't come out playing like the end of last year.  It's year 3 no more excuses for Bryce

      Yea Bryce was definitely a top half qb the second half of last season but I'm not sure Canales is 100% sold on him.  Like I've said in another post I think that's part of why we talked to so many South Carolina players in the draft process.  I think they are doing early due diligence on Sellers just in case.
