Seems to me like everyone should still have to wear masks anyway since you can still get and spread covid after vaccination. 

What I’m saying is if a team has a player test positive during the season is there a set protocol? There are going to be players testing positive no matter what.

Yes, I am aware of that. But the protocols for unvaccinated players who catch covid are much stricter than for vaccinated players who catch covid. This is due to the fact that the vaccine drastically cuts down on severity of symptoms and ease of spread. Also, nice scare quotes around the word vaccinated. Do us all a favor and get your anti-vax nonsense out of here would ya? 

Nothing that I posted could in any way be misconstrued as anti-vax.  I’m sorry that my grammar triggers you.

My point is still valid.  If/when a team with a 100% vaccination rate has guys test positive during game week, will they still have to forfeit?  It’s going to happen... the narrative will have to shift.

If your vaccinated you probably won't even be able to tell they are sick. To the unvaccinated those are going to be the ones in the hospital and costing their teams games. If you want to argue vaxed vs antibodies I will listen but honestly what's so bad about having more protection. If you come at me with the I don't need a vaccine and its a government coverup I am not going to give you a second.

The first sentence in your post is absurd, and not based in science.  It is your hope, and nothing more.  As time goes on, you’ll see pllllllenty more breakthrough cases with symptoms.

There is a big difference between “symptom-free” and “not in the hospital.”  
 

Many vaccinated people show mild/moderate symptoms, and that would absolutely warrant a test during the season.

From the article: "Fully vaccinated individuals will not be designated high-risk close contacts, and only unvaccinated players are at risk of missing games without a positive test."

Since your statement includes "and costing their teams games" it puts 'the unvaccinated' in the context of NFL players (not the general population). So last season, pre-vaccine, how many NFL players who had COVID last season wound up in the hospital?

It's probably going to end up with contact tracing determining who was the source if there is a team outbreak. If it was an unvaccinated player, then it will be a forfeiture. If it was a vaccinated then no forfeiture. If a team has followed NFL protocol to the letter that shouldn't be required to forfeit a game if they can still field a team.

Vaccinated CP3 came back in the NBA playoffs in what 4-5 days? We only have 2 unvaxxed players so hopefully worst case scenario you would sign a couple vaxxed guys to the practice squad, you can activate 2 per week without cutting anyone on the 53 under the current rules. Not sure when vaxxed players test but I imagine it would make most sense to do it on Monday or Tuesday after playing another team

Most vaccinated people are dealing with Delta because people want get vaccinated. But yeah I'm crazy because I follow top doctors and the CDC. I'm sure what comes next out of your mouth is some Tucker Carlson paid docs words.Don't worry I won't respond because talking to you antivaxxers is like talking to a brick wall.

Asking that is a stupid question for many reasons. One being that its a small group of people, Two they are in peak physical fitness, and three they all were testing early and often. Besides the fact its not just about you. This is why we have Delta and MU. Because it keeps mutating from unvaccinated people. Who think well it didn't kill me who cares if I spread it to the kid who has cancer down the road. Screw it I'm fine.

      T-Mac Jerseys?

      By ImfromClayton · Posted

      When the panthers are bad, we sell a shockingly low number of jerseys, and options become limited. In the good years, we had a lot of different options. I think T-Mac is going to have to play well on the field for his jersey to get produced in the FUSE template.

      Panthers sign Hunter Renfrow

      By CRA · Posted

      it's not the only way to be a threat, it's certainly important for certain roles in an offense and for certain type players and offenses.  as is the ability to get open quickly and generate easy throws.   as far as Renfrow goes, I have consistently said he is sort of his own thing and not really in comp w/ others here.  It's a niche role/job.  Anyone talking about something else from him isn't me.  Just depends if we want to do what he does and if he can still do it.  as far as AT goes, yeah, he does lower our ceiling given the % of our offense that goes through him and his limitations at this stage in his career.    He should be a roleplayer, much like Renfrow should be if we want to insert what he does into the O....not an O being run through him.    Renfrow isn't going to lower the ceiling if used correctly.  Niche assignments to move chains.   It's like a short yardage RB that comes in to pick a random play.  Renfrow is best at that 3rd and 4 type scenario IMO. AT lowers the ceiling because we build the pass game off an old WR that shouldn't be the focal point of a pass attack.  Not to mention, Bryce Young is practically tailor made to get the ball in the hands of YAC players.   So you need those type on the field.
