Somehow, this is not considered an outbreak. Keep in mind this is just players, there's several coaches on the list too. These aren't all positives, but this is all close contacts requiring extended quarantines and positives, so still quite a few people involved. Wrong week I guess and NFL won't list this as a outbreak unless someone dies, and maybe not even then.

So basically their practice squad will be taking the field? What a mess.

Time to change that Wildcard weekend prediction. I had the Steelers but at 20 points. No way they are not favorites now by 20+ points.
As you say, Jazz, the NFL will not call this an outbreak until somebody dies in the locker room.

FYI, it is the Saints vs. Bears game on Sunday that will be simulcast on Nickelodeon. So in particular, if you've got kids or you're a kid of the 80s or 90s looking to be nostalgic about slime and cartoons, make sure to watch that feed.

Not super clear on what the focus of the Freeform simulcast will be, just that it will be targeting a younger audience, but more tween/teen than young kids in line with the channel's demo. That is going to be the early game tomorrow, Ravens vs. Titans. Also, in addition to Freeform, ABC will have it too, so using the entire Disney platform basically.

Indy just went super greedy. You are up by three, the game is young, and you go for the TD over the FG.
Maybe too much.

And now Seattle just lost to a QB with a broken thumb, because Russell has gone for 20 attempts of which he has made 8.
He has got to be injured. Is this the same guy that was throwing for a minimum of 4 TD's in the first 5 games of the season?

If I may continue to complain...

Had I known ahead of time that Alex Smith wouldn't play, and Jared Goff would, not only would I have switched my game picks, I would have had at least 2 different, but possibly 3, players than I submitted for my first week team in the Decimation Playoffs. In serious trouble and not even finished with the first day of the first weekend of the payoffs. A winning start for sure.

Separately, @ponchi, I have no idea if the sites will work for you in SA, but I can give you a link that has great NFL streams here since you don't seem to be getting much in the way of coverage down there. Let me know if you want it.

So I'll write it out so it doesn't become a link. Go to NFLbitedotcom and click on the game you want to watch and it'll take you to a list of options. It is the site that originated from a group on Reddit, the feeds are excellent quality, a problem every once in a while, but there is always another several working well. When they give me like a Jets vs. Bengals game, I stream the game I want to see instead,.

Will this be evidence A that coaches are overrated? 21 points for a team with no head coach and that barely practiced all week?

Doubtful. They probably got more coaching this week than they ever have to go over every scenario with Kevin that they could.

21 points? That'll be 28 points in under a minute.

@ponchi, what happened with watching games yesterday? Were you able to use the site or watch all 3 games some other way or were you stuck with what they gave you down there?

I watched the first game with the local broadcast, but the second was nowhere so I used you link.
Super useful, as otherwise there would have been no way :)
So, very thankful to you. ESPN has already said they will show no games from the NFC, so I will lose those unless I use your links. Txs :)
