Good news that it is only because of contact tracing and not a positive. Bad news that it is the 3rd OL on the list(though none starters) which kills depth and a kicker at a time when it is very, very difficult to bring someone in on short notice due to testing protocols. I did read that Hurney has had a backup plan in place for kicker for exactly this scenario.

The article was pretty ambiguous about that.  It said the team didn't have to specify if it was for a positive test or contact tracing, but being that there aren't any separate reports about new positives, I guess we can assume it is due to contact tracing.

Where did you see that? That's possible but they don't disclose those details.

Yikes.  And this following a report that we re-opened the facilities today.

EDIT: Also didn't realize Slye was leading the league in FGs made this season.   Sounds like Charlton will be kicking if he can't get back in time for Sunday.

I thought we had Kai Forbath on the practice squad

We also probably kick more FGs in the red zone than any other team.

      We won, but Bryce and Canalas still blow

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      Do you honestly believe this is a team that will even be in contention for a playoff spot this year? To me, if you're not at minimum a genuine playoff caliber team, every win you get is a meaningless win in the end.  This is the NFL, it's not peewee league where you just want to win a few games and have fun, you want to get into the playoffs and have a shot at making a SB run. We haven't had a winning season in how many years?   Does "enjoying" a small handful of wins every year really make for an enjoyable season for you? I said it months ago and I'll say it forever, I don't care about winning or losing this year, as we don't have a playoff caliber roster yet and I'm a realist about where we are as a franchise.  I'd enjoy watching the games so much more if the team and Bryce in particular were just showing marked improvement, even if it came in losses.   Because THAT would give me hope for the future of the franchise and the direction we're going. Bryce was complete garbage in Week 1, in Week 2 he was terrible until the Cardinals went into super soft prevent defense and then collapsed gain when the game was in reach, and he was a serviceable game manager today, but didn't make any throws that any college QB couldn't make. This game was a perfect chance to let Bryce go out there and play loose because of the lead, just let him be himself and see if it sparks his college self.  But instead, we went unbelievably conservative with the play calling to help ensure the win, when actual wins and losses are the least of our worries this year, it's figuring out what Bryce can be (fans may be decided, but the team obviously has not yet).

      I’m pretty sure Baker requested to be released.

      Pretty fair assessment overall. I can’t say a lot since I didn’t watch but going by the comments I am betting he (Canales) was very conservative and a large reason would be to prevent Bryce giving it away half the day.
