1ManRaid Posted October 7, 2020 Posted October 7, 2020 Still no word of the secret practice on NFL.com, trying their darndest to not hand us another win. 1
Coffeesforclosers Posted October 7, 2020 Posted October 7, 2020 The threat of forfeited games, vacated trophies and blown seasons is something no owner ever wants to face. Which is why no team will ever be penalized in these ways. Expect the same garbage of lost picks, wrist slap fines, and a "suspended" coach that can use any one of about a million messenger apps/social media platforms to keep tabs on his guys.

The legitimacy of a championship starts getting put into question IMO. Costly fines, draft picks, to me this is a better way to get serious IMO. Is more to the point they violate protocols after they were shut down and told to isolate. They broke the protocols after breaking the protocols basically saying the rules don't apply to them. No other team with positive players are having anywhere near this type of issue so it's worth making an example of them. 2 1

It’s being reported that some front office execs are furious and pushing for a heavy handed response from the league. 2

If players see the Titans hit with a forfeit you can bet that there's no way in the world they will be "the guy" who costs their team a loss by being stupid. the peer pressure would be incredible. 1 1

If you're talking about people wearing masks, fine the team. If you're talking about willfully organizing a practice when directed NOT to meet, yeah you deserve a forfeit. You're directly going against an explicit order 1

Your talking about events that did not affect the owners bottom line. Things like this could kill the season. Something significant will come from this.
Rochesterian Bills Fan Posted October 7, 2020 Posted October 7, 2020 My pitchfork is still sharp over this. Tennessee is derailing the season. Worst yet against serious Playoffs contenders two weeks in a row. Anything less than a or forfeit or Tennessee having to field a bunch of PS players is unacceptable to me.
Worstcaseontario Posted October 7, 2020 Posted October 7, 2020 I was looking forward to watching bills football this week, oh well.

No other team with positive players are having anywhere near this type of issue so it's worth making an example of them. I think this is a tough situation for all NFL Teams and players to be in IMO. Depending on location some have it tougher then others. I for one do not want a Buffallo Win from another teams forfeiter. I mean how far would the league be willing to go with this because I'm sure the Titans organization would like to defend themselves. If the league starts handing out game forfeiters for violation of safety protocols what does that do to the integrity of the game.How many more teams are going to run into problems? I get where your coming from. I'm not totally against game forfeiter as a last resort.
ndirish1978 Posted October 7, 2020 Posted October 7, 2020 By holding unsanctioned practices these morons put the entire season at risk. They should lose ALL their draft picks for the next draft, face heavy fines and should forfeit this and the steelers games. 2

whatdrought Posted October 7, 2020 Posted October 7, 2020 Is there still a chance it gets played Sunday? They’d have to be free testing today and tomorrow so in building Friday?

Usually they require 2 practices so I don’t know what will happen. It could be waived like the day-of travel was for Pats
