I really don't get why the NFL thinks moving the game one or two days is going to do anything.

Just kicking the can down the road is all.

we may be in this situation with the bears next week

How is this sustainable? Titans game looking like it could get rescheduled again. Seems like some teams are likely playing less than 16 games. Can't really pull double headers like they did in baseball to make up for all the missed games early.

Playing whack a mole isn’t going to fix this issue

"The Denver Broncos at New England Patriots game scheduled for Monday, October 12 at 5:00 p.m. ET has been postponed," the league said in a statement. "Details on a new game date and time will be announced shortly. Both teams will now have a Week 5 bye. This decision was made to ensure the health and safety of players, coaches and game day personnel and in consultation with medical experts."

Really wonder if Tennessee is going to be forced to forfeit at this point, I mean the NFL keeps threatening it.

Agreed, nature needs to just run its course, name one, just one professional sports player or coach that has died or been hospitalized from this? It’s time we realize that these are extremely low risk individuals and need to stop the hysteria. 
Its only a matter of time before the NFL realizes this approach won’t work and will just say screw it and just let nature do its thing

They can add weeks 18, 19 and 20 if they need to.  
 

when the playoff start they will go to a bubble.

And if everyone In their sphere were young and didn't have any pre-existing conditions you might have a smidgen of logic there. But with 1 out 4 Americans with pre-existing conditions and them not living in a bubble, your line of thinking is irresponsible and dangerous. If everyone got infected and 1% died that is 3 million deaths. Crazy thinking and most people would be afraid to share such a ridiculous and caulous statement.  Crazy times we line in.

Wrong, it’s not 1%, cdc estimates that up to 10x more people have had Covid than what is reported, that equates to at 0.22% death rate give or take. It’s simple, if you test positive, stay away from those that are older and at risk and let everyone else develop herd immunity. Sweden took this approach and guess what, it worked!

Ah the ignorance of youth and the belief in invincibility. And the desire of millions more to bury their heads in the sand and pretend if they ignore the virus it will simply disappear.  All these selfish people only care about themselves and think as long as they are fine nothing else matters.  If this was more deadly then natural selection would do its job and eliminate the weak and stupid much like in the wild where the gazelle who is too slow to avoid the lion or too stupid to avoid the obvious danger get eaten and taken out of the gene pool.

Fixed so now you sound at least rational.

It is hard to believe that people like you still debate these issues and act as if your rationale makes even a modicum of sense. You are either a troll or really believe what you say which in either case is a waste of time to debate since nothing to this point has educated you to the dangers so I doubt anything will. If you get Covid I hope you are asymptomatic. Stay safe.
