That means no Titans coaches or players can be in the building.

Fuck here we go

Damn...and so it begins. Who had Tennessee as the first team with outbreaks...certainly not me. Hopefully the Vikings won't have any cases after their game.

Ha yes agree.

So I see a run first team, much like Cleveland. We aren’t terrible against the run, but we did wear down 4th quarter do too way too much time on the field and short ones. Keep the Ravens to 2nd and 3rd and longs. I think we can match their WR.

Haskins has to challenge them deep. We have to insert this into the offense...loss of Earl Thomas allows teams to go up top...we just have to do that.

It’s unlikely we will win, I certainly think we can. I think ground grind team plays more to our strengths. But we need Haskins to grow in the system.

I think our D is better than theirs and their O is better than ours. As usual containing Jackson is key, a healthy Young would help us. Should be an interesting game, I could see us winning if Haskins plays a good game.

SF I’m with you

The Tennessee Titans have closed their facilities until Saturday after three players and five team personnel members tested positive for COVID-19, the NFL announced Tuesday.

The eight new positive tests have been confirmed after additional testing, a source told ESPN's Kevin Seifert.

The Titans, citing an "abundance of caution," issued a statement saying they've halted in-person work Tuesday. The Minnesota Vikings, who played the Titans on Sunday, did the same, though the team said there were no positive tests through Tuesday morning.

"Out of the abundance of caution, the organization has decided to work remotely today as we follow NFL protocols related to the COVID-19 virus," the Titans' statement said.

Titans OLB coach Bowen in COVID-19 protocol

For the Vikings, league contact tracing identified 48 close contacts with the eight members of the Titans who tested positive, sources told ESPN's Dan Graziano, and the Vikings will not return to their facility until all of their test results are in. Contingency and rescheduling plans are being discussed, sources told ESPN.

The NFL issued a statement saying both the Titans and VIkings are working with the league and the NFLPA and medical officials "to evaluate close contacts, perform additional testing and monitor developments ... with health and safety as our primary consideration."

The Titans were without outside linebackers coach and defensive playcaller Shane Bowen for Sunday's game against the Minnesota Vikings due to the COVID-19 protocol. Bowen was placed in protocol after getting test results back Saturday before the team left for Minnesota.

The team was already without offensive tackle Isaiah Wilson, who was placed into the COVID-19 protocol earlier this month. Coach Mike Vrabel had said he hoped Wilson could return to the practice field this week.

No decision has yet been made about Sunday's game against the Pittsburgh Steelers in Nashville, a source told ESPN.

I heard on a MNF or Sunday night game that everyone wears these bracelets that detects and logs who you came in close contact to. Pretty cool stuff.

Well .. lets see what happens.

The logistics Of travel is the challenge. These fools need to be bubbled up when they out of town.

lol Punch ... im actually very negative of the Skins. Before this season I probably picked us to go 4-12, think we have the worst O line in football, worst secondary in football, bottom 5 WR corp and think Haskins will not be a long term starter in this league. After the eagles win when I said our success was not repeatable, our ints were more from luck .. i got called a poor Thanksgiving guest who sticks his dick in the mashed potatoes.

But knowing we will suck, knowing Haskins will struggle, knowing we wont be able to run the ball, knowing OCs will be able to game plan around our front 4 .... allows me to enjoy the small nuggets.

Geron and Wes are not long term solutions (maybe Wes) but me being happy that at least they are identifying their assignment and not get beat .5 seconds after the snap is a win ... bc I thought they would be beat off the snap repeatedly. Im happy to see the O line sometimes push back a DL and seal some lanes. I did not think that was possible.

Low expectations + enjoying the small individual player successes = a good mindstate to have in a dead year.

Now next year, if they dont spend cap on actual starters (LT, CB1, FS, WR2, LB) I will be much harder on them. This year, with covid, new HC and everything .. I understand. Its a lost season before the first snap was taken.

Next year .. lets go. I will have raised expectations.

Agree with all of this. Except sticking your dick in the mashed potatoes. One because i knew the win was fools gold also and two because i love mashed potatoes.

At this point I'm going for 0-14, or how many ever games count for regular season. Go big or go home. They're still pretty sensitive.
