scine09 Posted October 4, 2020 Report Share Posted October 4, 2020 (edited) I feel like there's 3 legit scenarios for the Buffalo game next week. Which one do you want? 1. Play the game on time, assuming that this all stops by, say, Wednesday, with whomever is on the roster and with limited practice time? 2. Forfeit the game and take the L? 3. Move this back to a week 18? 4. Cancel the game and just have the Bills/Titans play 15 games. I'm guessing that won't go over well around the league since one less game is also one less period that players can get beaten up and have injuries. I really hope that we don't have to have this same discussion for the Houston game but until this all stops who knows how long this could go on. Also note they can't move the Buffalo game till Monday or Tuesday as the Chiefs have a Thursday night game with the Bills. Edited October 4, 2020 by scine09 Link to post Share on other sites
IsntLifeFunny Posted October 4, 2020 Report Share Posted October 4, 2020 It would be great to move it back to week 18, but I don’t think the NFL will allow us to do that and have two straight bye weeks. Maybe I’m wrong. I think we either play on time or we forfeit. Link to post Share on other sites
Guts Posted October 4, 2020 Report Share Posted October 4, 2020 Forfeit at this point. Playing with a very limited roster will only increase injuries, especially with very little practice time over the past two weeks. Link to post Share on other sites
titanskick8851 Posted October 4, 2020 Report Share Posted October 4, 2020 I would say push it to week 18. I think many coaches/GMs will push for the league to add an 18th week to the schedule to allow for any make up games that can’t be made up during the bye. Link to post Share on other sites
oldschool Posted October 4, 2020 Report Share Posted October 4, 2020 Forfeit lol. The NFL will do everything they can to avoid that. The most likely scenario is that the game is played with scabs filling in for Simmons and Jones. If they win great if not og well. The fallback will be to move the game to week 18 and delay the playoffs a week. There will likely be more games that need to be made up and week 18 makes perfect sense to do that.

headhunter Posted October 4, 2020 Report Share Posted October 4, 2020 The season should've been shortened to 12 games but have the length of the months remain the same so games could be postponed if needed Maker84 1 Link to post Share on other sites

StephenIsLegend Posted October 4, 2020 Report Share Posted October 4, 2020 I’d hope to move to week 18. Link to post Share on other sites
abenjami Posted October 4, 2020 Report Share Posted October 4, 2020 I think the easiest thing to do is show up to the field at game time. The Bills likely won't show up since they don't want the virus and we'll be 4-0 after their forfeit. prometheus 1 Link to post Share on other sites
