More NFL Covid nonsense. Players must now isolate for 5 days even if they test negative if they had “high risk” contact

So first we isolate players who “tested positive” but feel completely fine (Cam Newton) but that’s not enough, so now it doesn’t matter if you have it or not, you must isolate if you came in “high risk” contact with a positive player. In other words, just another virtue signaling Covid measure to just try and make a statement that you take it seriously but it actually doesn’t do anything. Kind of like people who wear masks outside when they are all alone.

Can’t fault the NFL. The titans forced their hand to tighten their measures. 
 

Too much money involved to have players going rogue. 
 

With that said, we will see how strict this policy is when Mahomes, Wilson, or Rodgers is required for five days of isolation Three days before a big game.

Yes, speaking of the Titans. They all get Covid, two weeks later they come back and blow out a very good 3-0 Bills team like they were a high school team. Wasn’t Covid like super dangerous? Hmmm

It’s killed 210k+ here in the US. So far. Yes it can be dangerous. And no,  not every titan got covid. The ones that had it didn’t play.

Really hope you aren’t trying to simplify and downplay a virus that has killed over 210,000 people, more then 9/11, more then Vietnam

It 100% is what he is trying to do. It should be in the Tinderbox though. Not here in the main section.

      Can we get to 9-8?

      By Mike2.0 · Posted

      A winning record would be nice, but I still have us winning around the 6 to 8 game mark. Realistically we should beat the Jets and Saints, that gets us to 5 wins. After that, we have to face a lot of potential play off teams and our divisional opponents. I think we’ll win 1 or 2 of those games to take us to 6 or 7 wins, perhaps 8 wins if we can spring a further surprise.  Is that enough progress for head coach and QB? I’m not sure, it will depend on performances and output. That said, it’s nice to be back in a position where we are thinking about the play offs.

      Eight of Bryce Young's nine wins have come off game-winning drives

      By Mike2.0 · Posted

      I would tend to agree about not falling into the trap and paying a below average QB, but sometimes situations can “force” a team to pay that QB. For example, if we play ourselves into a 9-8 like record, then what options will we have in the draft? Or do we avoid the draft and trade for or sign someone in free agency?  I’m not convinced by the 2026 QB draft class. There’s some intriguing prospects but no one that really screams “draft me”. I’m not sure we’ve got anyone really that stands out as a trade candidate or free agent signing. So although we might not want to commit a big money contract to Young, him playing well and showing progress might force the team’s hand.

      Trade Chuba?

      By Mike2.0 · Posted

      Realistically we would be looking at no more than a mid round pick for Dowdle or Chuba. Are we really that desperate for a mid round pick? Not really. I would much prefer us utilise the two RBs in a 1-2 punch similar to how we used D-Will and Stewart. After all, Bryce is not Drew Brees. He won’t throw for 300+ yards and carry the team consistently as a passer. So having a strong running game with a 1-2 punch will be beneficial to him, and it will also be beneficial to the RBs because we can spell them and not overwork them.
