    Gustin reads like a tested positive for Covid-19.. Chris Hubbard has *returned* from reserve Covid-19..

    And per this tweet... tracers were all clear on Gustin..

    #Browns offense practiced today. Defense was virtual as contact tracing was done. Identified no close contacts. Offense and defense practiced separately Wednesday. So haven’t had normal practice this week.

    A vaccine might be on the horizon...but they won't be giving it to football players.

    Don't bet against it.  (at least in regards to the NFL) they might be an "essential industry" 🙂

    Eventually they will   But not as a priority. Though money may will talk. 

    Let's be generous Gipper.  200 individuals per team X 32 teams = 6,400 doses. Not that much if we're looking at 10 million doses or so initially available.

    ... times 2 = 12,800 as most of the early contenders are in two shots weeks apart.

    Meanwhile there are ~18,000,000 health care workers and another 4.6mm first responders.

    The NFL can wait...

    They can, that does not mean they will want to, or in fact will.....

    While things may be more equitable in the near future,  I still do not see things changing so drastically in a short time where the wealthy and the privileged will no longer be given priority.

    And they can get in line behind in-person schoolteachers as well if we want a full return to the classrooms. Screw the athletes. Get in line behind the old folks too like every other able bodied 20-30 y.o.

    Sure....maybe this situation will tell us what "professions"  or statuses  this society truly prioritizes.   Nevertheless....would you want to wager  against these well paid athletes being among the first to receive the vaccination? 

  • You guys are getting pretty heated over what is obviously a liberal hoax. ?

    FWIW,  NFL players are certainly getting priority testing...

    I do agree healthcare workers, first responders, teachers, and then us old folks to the head of the vaccine line.... Just sayin' though- it wouldn't shock me if the NFL buys their way to the top of the list.

    Our defense is going to hell in a handbasket.  

    Guys are not making the smart choices once they leave the building and go home.  Perhaps COVID will not kill a healthy football player...but it can kill your team if enough players test positive and you can't field a good enough team to win a game.

    It takes a real effort to avoid COVID right now.  175k+ new cases in the US just about every day now.

    We're still in lot better shape than a bunch of teams- most notably the Ravens. 

    Yeah- this epidemic is spiraling out of control. There's no margin for error anymore to reschedule with the byes out of the picture. Why they're either going to have to add a week to the end of the season for makeup games, or possibly call the whole thing off until playoff time, and freeze the standings. Hey- in that case- we make the playoffs.  🙂

    shitty way to make the playoffs....but we have no control......steven a and the rest of the first take cast recommended a possilble bubble situation....i could see that happening or the season may be called off  if that does not happen........hoorta makes a good point with the virus spiraling out of control......

    A bubble playoff scenario might be the only way we see the season play out.

    It's bubbling folks... Steelers- Ravens delayed again ... Tuesday?  

    Lamar Jackson- OUT. This is starting to be a joke of a season. Too many teams with too many players on the covid list.

    ^^ Good Morning Curmudgeon'(s)!! ? and welcome back!

      2zM3.gif  ... As projected.. A peek in Covid cases were coming in the fall.. Even the games stars have no protection shields from Covid..

    To this point...I'd applaud the NFL league offices & players union having done some real right things... Can it Continue? ? Not with large Team* roster spreads of Covid.. another right choice imho...If we have to wait till a Tuesday night game to see a better roster'd team? So be it!!

    We might not see 17 weeks of NFL football? But, we'll see a great finish to this season (somehow) ...book it!!       

  • Gotta love a good "book it"... especially an optimistic one.

    Myles Garrett expected back for the Titans game next week

     

    Garrett, who’s tied for the NFL lead with 9.5 sacks, is expected back for the Titans game next week from his two-game absence after testing positive for COVID-19.

     

    Garrett is feeling much better, but must first pass a cardiac screening and then work out for three days under the supervision of the Browns medical staff, with increased intensity each day, before he can participate in a full practice or play in a game. Ideally, he’d get the three days in and then be able to practice at least a few days before heading to Nashville for a game that will have AFC playoff implications.
