So, all thoughts on personal choice aside, it is definitely a possibility that Sweats personal choice can maybe cost us wins and or the playoffs. Makes me wonder why, if you know a player is unvaccinated that u allow him to be around the team and possibly affect others? I mean with Rodgers it’s obvious. They would lose without him. We don’t exactly need sweat to win games. Just a shitty situation if he took down others with himself. Nobody can force him to get vaccinated but couldn’t they have just kept him away from the team? We could really use those other d linemen.

Edit: fyi im trying to be as cordial as possible and leave my thoughts on personal choice / vaccines out of the equation before this conversation goes south. Hope it comes across that way.
It does, and I'm not interested in taking the conversation south. I just think it's pointless to try to pin this "outbreak" on one person, and then blame him for costing the team games / potential playoff berth. They lost to Dallas because Dallas was the better team for 50 minutes of that game. Sweat wasn't going to change that. Hell, people have been going on and on here about how the defense has played better without him and CY. The defense wasn't even close to the reason why they lost that game. We don't know who is playing on Sunday yet, or who is going to win, but the loss is already seemingly Sweat's fault...

To me it's like blaming my wife for causing my daughter to miss her choir solo, because she tested positive for COVID - which required my daughter to to quarantine due to being a close contact. It wasn't my wife's fault she contracted COVID. It's just our world right now.
