Jets have presumptive positive test, have sent players and coaches home (update - False positive)

Did someone inject Gase with it?

I guess this gives new meaning to Just End The Season.

[Process]

In 5 week span bills play the raiders, titans, chiefs, jets and patriots.

 

That's a schedule from covid hell. Hopefully we make it though without any major outbreaks.

at some point, the NFL will realize the need to just treat the sick and play on

[Nextmanup]

I feel like we are going to see more of this type of thing, and soon.

 

I wonder if the season is going to get shut down for a week or 2, restructured, and then re-started in "bubbles" like they did with the NHL or something similar.  

 

Presumably there would be a ton of player opt-outs, but it still might be the path they take.

If this is isolated, they will play the game as scheduled like they did in Atlanta with AJ Terrell

That is the best way I can think of to spread covid through the entire league, and quickly.

I don agree, did you expect to have no positive tests?  Other than the Titans situation, I think everything else is status quo and predicted.

If it isn't Gase on their list, their fans are going to be upset.

This will obviously come off as insensitive, but the fact is that most of these players seem to not even know they have it, and the ones that do, seem to have cold symptoms and that’s it.  
 

Of course there’s a Von Miller, but that seems to be an outlier.  
 

NFL has to be vigilant and responsible, so we’ll continue this charade throughout the season, but if COVID wasn’t a “thing”, none of these players would have missed any games. 
 

Just a strange, strange time...

Everything is going smoothly with two exceptions: 

 

1- the Titans- ***** them. 
 

2- there seems to be some inconsistencies on what the reaction is to isolated tests. We saw Atlanta play quickly after a +, but NE has had two games postponed due to isolated +‘s and I’m not entirely sure what the distinction is? Maybe I’m missing it.

Same lab that did the testing for the 'no fat yogurt'?

The distinction was Atlanta was playing at home and NE had to travel. They had to run another round of tests before putting team on a plane, thus the day delay. They put close contacts of cam on a separate plane. 
 

this week, I think the delay was due to practice time for Pats

I think the # of +'s is the key. One? You shove him in a closet for a week and move on. Two or more? That's possible proof of spreading.
