I don't know how the NFL would bubble, but there has been a stark difference between the bubble sports (NHL/NBA) and non-bubble sports (Football/MLB)

Nothing to see here.

 

I fully expect the Falcons ultra modern medical staff get on top of this Corona issue over the next three days and completely handle the situation.

 

Of course on the fourth day the Rona will make an unprecedented come back and infect half the team.

Apparently all the Colts' tests were false positives and the retests were all clean. Good to go this week.

 

Then again, the NFL will do anything to get a full and complete season in so, who the hell knows what to believe anymore.

How do they know the first test was false positive, and the second test isn’t false negative?

I listened to a podcast a few weeks back and forget the exact details.... but what I recall is basically what they are doing is the first test given that would trigger a positive isn’t the most accurate but faster and done daily, when a positive is triggered off of that test they do a test that takes longer (2-3 days iirc) but is more accurate to confirm or not. All the players wear some sort of tracking devices too and if they’ve been around a positive test person they have to take the more accurate test too before being cleared and isolate/quarantine until results come back.

But they aren’t taking 2-3 days to announce the false positive was false.

They aren’t? Honestly I’m not paying that close attention to any of these individual announcements to track the days between positives and confirmation or whatever. Just that’s what I recall the protocol being from when I heard it. Not surprised they’re maybe skirting the rules.

I see Atlanta is setting themselves up for their biggest letdown yet.

 

They may blow that Trevor draft pick, though. I don't think Minny has it in them to come back

Baker Mayfield benched, Case Keemun in. Lol.

If you’re ATL, do you trade that pick? Matt Ryan is ok and they need a lot of help.

Yes. You trade Matt Ryan, eat whatever money you have to and have a (likely still pretty good) QB on a 4-year rookie deal with the best offensive weapons in the league. Then get help on D and the OL.

Mayfield was banged up coming into the game and was getting his brains beat in. It was to keep him from getting killed

I tend to agree. Guys like Lawrence don’t come around very often. Hopefully he ends up on the Jets or in Washington and not in the NFC South.

I was told the Bucs weren’t that good since the Bears beat them

The Bucs are not only good, I'll go out on a limb and say that will be the best team the Bears will end up having played this year. I could see them finishing 12-4 this season.
