There is a safe, effective vaccine available, and there is no excuse not to take it for almost all people (some unusual medical situations excepted). Expand So, they're going to force teams to forfeit? What does that solve for exactly? Vaxed people (I am vaxed, my whole family is vaxed) can still get COVID. So what happens if a team is 100% vaccinated, and through no real fault of their own, has enough people get (a very very mild) case of COVID? They have to forfeit a game even though they followed the rules? Yeah, that's going to go over really well. I guess they think the intense shame it'll generate will make everyone double down and...get a third shot? 1

Beast Posted July 23, 2021 Posted July 23, 2021 My favorite Rick Dennison moment is when Nate Odomes beat him like a red headed step-child and blocked Davis Treadwell's kick that started 20 points in 77 seconds against Denver. He basically launched our AFC dynasty do go easy on the man. 1

Expand Vaxed people can still contract covid, and that's no surprise since no vaccine is 100% effective. Actually the covid vaccines are more effective than most vaccines, but still not 100%. My understanding is that the league will punish outbreaks if players are not vaccinated.

I know the players will NOT be paid if their team is involved in a forfeit. I think it would be only fair to reimburse ticket holders if the game is not played.
