2020 NFL Week 3 Thread: Do I Gotta Stab Tyrod Three Times?

[Serra]

8 cases in the Titans org, 3 players and 5 staff. None positive for the Vikings at the moment but they just played each other.

Would be interesting how it played out if this news broke on a Saturday instead of a Tuesday.

a source told ESPN's Chris Mortensen that there were positive tests with the Vikings.

Problem there is the Eagles didn’t do a good job of acquiring talent to begin with and the 49ers did, but they are all hurt.

the eagles have talent but they are also hurt

this isn’t an excuse, im well aware the eagles are bad

[archibaldcrane]

Wait, what?

[Serra]

They changed it, it said there were positive tests when I quoted it!

The media's out here spreading panic!!

[Weltall]

I wish they would delay our Steelers game so 2 of our best players were actually back from injury and able to play lol. Won't be that lucky.

[archibaldcrane]

I doubt an exposure on Sunday could lead to a positive test on Tuesday anyway

[Mertron]

sucks to be the steelers but the easiest solution is to move the game to monday or even tuesday i guess, unless they want to do that thing where they add it to the end of the schedule

[Weltall]

Per PFT:

"There’s a fairly easy schedule fix, if the game is postponed. The Titans have a Week Seven bye, the Steelers play the Ravens in Week Seven, and the Steelers and Ravens have Week Eight byes. So the NFL could move Steelers-Titans to Week Seven and Steelers-Ravens to Week Eight, with Baltimore’s bye coming in Week Seven."

I'm highly rooting for this option lol. We cannot beat the Steelers without AJ Brown / Adoree Jackson back. Lewan may miss 1 week too with that stinger.

i guess it'll depend on when these tests came back, the number of positives, and if both teams can get their practices in

[Weltall]

Titans' facilities are closed through Saturday. They won't be getting practices in, unless it turns out quickly these were false positives (most of the NFL cases have been thus far).

After Hurricane Katrina, the NFL forced the Saints to play without practicing though.

yeah that's what i mean

[Serra]

ESPN says they've already done additional testing and were confirmed positives.

[Weltall]

Yep, and the Steelers just announced they were told to continue game day preparations. Sounds like they will play ball without the Titans getting to practice. Glad I got on on that line early. Super easy $.

Chris Godwin has a hamstring injury and is likely going to miss multiple weeks

I got on the line the second it was released and the Titans were 1.5 pt favorites. HYPE :D

so the eagles are missing their starting LT, LG, RG, second string LT and RG and RT, two starting WRs not counting djax who has been dinged already this year and missed time, a starting TE, the starting RT and starting RB missed week 1 and are playing through injuries, and our qb has a reputation for being made of glass

but jason kelce is okay i guess!
