NFL: 2020 NFL season news & notes discussion thread

Can always trade to get Mike Davis back. When McCaffrey comes back I fully expect us to continue to run him into the ground despite Davis showing he's fully capable of 10-15 touches per game.

All of Seattle’s guys will return at some point in the near future from all reports. Penny tore his acl in like game 13 or 14 in LA last season in December. So he should be close now that we enter November this weekend as well.

Russell will find a way to be okay. He always does lol

Two depleted teams match up on Sunday.
Seattle at least has their best player healthy and they need him to play well.

have to win your home divisional games. The rematch with AZ is on Thursday night so any lingering ailments from the prior Sunday will put anyone’s status up in the air for that one.

for Seattle, I’d load the box and make Jimmy G beat me. Double Kittle and trust the corners to play Man.

Wonder if we’ll see the Bears release Javon Wims today after his little outburst yesterday. Pretty easily replaceable player.

Packers, Ravens, and Cardinals all reporting positive covid cases this morning. Packers play on Thursday

To steal from someone else, Baker Mayfield seems stuck in this cycle:
10 Play like shit
20 Get criticized in the media
30 Adopt an underdog mentality
40 Play better
50 Fire back at the doubters
60 GOTO 10

Another week of The Nooch......hmmmmmm does this increase the odds of the annual "Mike Tomlin Special" making an appearance earlier than originally thought?

I guess Cooper is a better option than Ben but recent reports where Andy Dalton maybe healthy.

Dalton got moved to COVID/Reserve list

Nooch sounds like a combination of noodle and the euphemism for vagina molded into a two syllable word.

Kaepernick is still better than anyone on that roster not named Prescott.

....Happy Birthday, Colin, BTW. Birthday on election day, apropos.

COVID-19 test results lead 49ers to close facility Wednesday - ProFootballTalk

 

[Quid Pro Clowe]

It was wr Kendrick Bourne. Which means sf likely won't have more than 1 regular receiver to go along with their 5th string rb.

 

[JeremyTB]

Niners have added Trent Williams, Aiyuk, and Deebo to the reserve covid list. The Niners #1 WR for tomorrow's game is Trent Taylor. He is also their #2, #3, and #4.

 

[Marc the Habs Fan]

My god. Who is even left on the 49ers offence to play the game? And it's not being moved.

 

[member 157595]

They're 1 step away from giving Jerry Rice and Roger Craig a call.

 

[Quid Pro Clowe]

Pats miss a cb and they give them a bye. 49ers entire roster is out, make 'em play.

Eat shit, Goddell

Same treatment the Raiders got with their OL against TB. Their guys managed to play without practice but still.

with Covid nfl not pushing games around now it seems. Did it earlier in the year but now that they say that they have tightened up protocols if your guys contract it they will just sit out the game.

 

[Blitzkrug]

Just add an extra week to the schedule you f***ing morons. This could backfire majorly if a team gets a bad enough outbreak they might literally be unable to field a full team.

It's what I expected. Say all the right things about player safety and protocols before starting up, then deviate when it predictably hits the fan.

They should have done the extra week of byes just in case. Only so much depth that they added to the practice squad.

My guess is that the Networks pushed back saying that we want the game played. if this was a Sunday game, they could push it. Seems like going forward no more of the TNF, SNF, MNF will get pushed. They took LV/TB off SNF to put SEA/AZ instead because they were concerned about the Raiders. Can't do that with TNF or MNF.
