    I suppose, but if more outbreaks are coming why not shutdown for 2 weeks, isolate everyone, ramp up the covid protocols upon return and hopefully be done with it?

    Shut the season down for 2 weeks.

    It happened before, it's not about teams being happy about it, it's about safety.


    -- Sept. 11, 2001 - Week 2 of NFL schedule postponed on Sept. 13 after 9/11 terrorist attacks. On Sept. 18, NFL re-scheduled those games, with second week of season picked up in Week 3, and original Week 2 games to be played on Jan. 6-7 as final Week 17 of season

    they arent gonna shut down the entire league for 1 team. when the next team has an outbreak they gonna shut it down for 2 weeks again? and then again? its not a good plan

    they are just gonna add weeks to the end of the season and fill in games as needed

    Disagree. There's obvious protocol in place for outbreaks that were anticipated to happen when the season started.

    As someone mentioned, enhanced practice squads were utilized this year FOR THIS REASON. So why is everyone acting like the league is burning?

    They'll use bye weeks if possible.
    They'll add games onto the end of the season (I believe the NFL has 8 weeks of wiggle room on the back end).
    Worst case they will cancel games and teams will play reduced schedules.

    They expanded practice squads but aren’t using them to play this week.

    I’m glad they did so the titans PS doesn’t get smashed by Sh***tsburgh, but canx it did kind of defeat the purpose of expanding it.
