Not necessarily about catching it, but not dying from it. As far as football it is a lesser time away if you are vaccinated. So it seems to help in every way imo actually. Whether we are talking about life or football.

First big covid news of the day, sure there will be more coming

@AdamSchefter
Browns’ QB Baker Mayfield has tested positive for COVID-19, sources tell @FieldYates, @ByKimberleyA and me. Unless he produces two negative tests between Saturday, he’s out vs. Raiders.

Initially i was upset because it seemed like our d-line was the first big outbreak of the season, but this is crazy. Seems like it's gonna get a lot worse before it gets better.

Time to let vaccinated asymptomatic guys play. Otherwise this season is going to turn ugly really quick.

I would go even further than this, but this is definitely a start.

As others have mentioned DT Matt Ioannidis being added to the Covid list, per source. DL decimated.

NHL and NBA have both had to postpone games. I hope that doesn't happen in NFL. That would be a CF

They made the Broncos trot out a WR at qb last year - ain't no way games are getting postponed.

Behind the scenes the league and the union have to be scrambling. Imagine the playoffs with a bunch of stars sitting due to covid, or how about a SB played with a bunch of backups. They need to do something asap.

This could easily be done if they had a vaccine mandate in the league. And before anyone bitches about this, they have mandated drug testing, so yes, this could have easily happened.

I hope we have a Blaine Gabbert vs. Brian Hoyer Super Bowl. I'm sure anti-vaxxer idiots are going to be screaming for players to be vaccinated.

I would have been all for that, let the unvaccinated sit out the year. Fuck em. Of course the players union would have gone apeshit over that proposal.
