Here's the thing though - so far, transmission isn't occurring by playing the games. And that mirrors the experience in other sports. It's all about how teams enforce and adhere to measures within their own groups. I think it's highly likely, but the crazy part here is that it's all about the commitment teams & the NFL have to have local controls. I get it's a LOT harder with 90 players and 30-40 staff over NBA/NHL and even MLB - but it's pretty clear local bubbles are the only shot for a full season (barring a Disney NBA approach, but that ship has sailed). A pause and reboot with full local bubbles wouldn't surprise me. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they decide that players have to essentially isolate at hotels for the next 3-4 months, I think we'll see some players pushing for opt-outs again.

I wonder if we'll see meetings between the NFL and players union this week to come up with something Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
y*so*blu Posted October 3, 2020 Share Posted October 3, 2020 This is worrying. In retrospect it would've been safer to have a truncated Pro Bowl-style season: teams of alternating AFC vs NFC players in double or triple-headers, tested on their way in and out, playing at the same stadium every week. 32 full teams, each with its own staff and practice squad, traveling to different venues throughout the country may be unsustainable during a pandemic.
