Wildbunny Posted December 17, 2021 Share Posted December 17, 2021 Count me in the Spaceman camp here. It's not even worth it, let's go full replacements and ride with it. Doesn't matter much if we get crushed 90-0. Making rules easier just because it's becoming a real mess is not exactly caring much about player integrity and health. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think he's great, but he can be a decent backup. The NFL doesn't want to see some practice squad guy start a game in December for a game that has playoff implications. I don't think that's wrong. The NFL saw a guy actually start a playoff game who wasn't even on a practice squad but was on his sister's couch...the NFL saw a guy released on temp parole from prison to start, and saw him win... And for the record I agree with you actually lol... Edited December 17, 2021 by Califan007 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
88Comrade2000 Posted December 17, 2021 Share Posted December 17, 2021 I think we should just forfeit. Whoever does play is more likely to get injured. That doesn’t do well for the rest of the year and even next year. What if a key player suffers a major injury that takes him away in 22. Forfeit the game. We can’t field a Team this week and could do more damage attempting to play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gilbert's father, Gale Gilbert holds the record as the only NFL player to be on 5 consecutive losing Super Bowl teams. He was 3rd string quarterback on the Bills teams that lost 4 Super Bowls in a row. The next year he got traded to San Diego where he was on the bench when the Chargers lost to the 49ers in Super Bowl XXIX. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are sub 500 team and not a draw for tv or in person crowds. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BatteredFanSyndrome Posted December 17, 2021 Share Posted December 17, 2021 So what's up with the apparent hard line stance on not moving games to Monday or Tuesday? I heard Ron on Sheehan this morning and he came across like perhaps that was talked about but not in the cards right now. He said 80% of the guys out have zero symptoms and he's optimistic some will be ready to go come Sunday. Take that for what its worth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or was it several players getting exposed. I've got a theory. Dallas had all their positive tests & then came here. The next day our guys started testing positive. The Dallas Covidboys are a virus. 1 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Koolblue13 Posted December 17, 2021 Share Posted December 17, 2021 Maybe we gave it to the Cowboys last week and the eagles this week, so we'll get healthy when they go through this mess and we win the final 3. The roaring 20's sure are zany. What a time to be alive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's only 4 Teams the NFL would delay a game for: Chiefs, Pats, Packers and Bucs. Those 4 are most likely the teams that will be playing for a Superbowl. The NFL could care less about the other teams. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Conn Posted December 17, 2021 Share Posted December 17, 2021 @Spaceman Spiffidk man, the Broncos or whoever had to start a WR at QB last year when it got really bad. I don’t think they’re doing us any favors for the sake of one below average QB replacing a bad QB. He’ll either pass the protocol or he won’t but I doubt the NFL cares either way 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
