fantasy impact of coronavirus

[FantasyFreak]

Up to 8 players and 8 staff members positive in Tennessee. Speculation on missing Week 5 is gaining steam.

Don't think that can happen. They may have to forfeit, IMO. The NFL still says the game is on and feels good about it being played. We shall see, but the Bills may get an easy win, either way.

Cam Newton tests positive. Out Sunday.

As a Raiders fan, I would have preferred this last week. On a serious note, things are beginning to look ominous. Are we to believe Cam is the only one? Will the Pats have more positives starting Monday? What about their opponents?

I feel like if Cam is positive they have to assume other Patriots are and cancel this game. Not looking good for the NFL.

Doubt the game is postponed unless there are additional positive tests today or tomorrow.

Edit: or not lol

These are my thoughts exactly. It seems pretty obvious that others would have been exposed to Cam. Their tests might not be positive until a few days after exposure. But we don't have two days.

If they cancel/postpone every game due to 1 positive test, the season won't finish. All Pats tested clean today. I think the NFL is done if they don't carry on this week with that game.

This is exactly my point. The tests came back negative but it seems obvious there was some exposure. And now the flight is canceled with all options on the table according to Shefter. The season's prospects of continuing are looking bleak if they don't put something together fast.

The NFL will have egg on their face if they are the only pro sport that fails to finish, that's for sure.

They should just take this whole week and shift it to week 18. No game this week.

And test the hell out of everyone over the weekend and those who test positive go to the 3 week penalty box.

And let this be the kick in the bleep week for the NFL players, coaches, staff, production crew to get their crap together and isolate their home lives properly

It would be insanity to go ahead with the game. If Cam had it he most likely spread it to others.

What is in the NFL's favor is they have a natural 2 week period between games anyway (if they have to skip a game). I think they can easily weather this by switching bye weeks and they have a month set aside as extra time if the season needs to be extended. Seems the teams/coaches/players/staff are getting complacent though, if that continues then the season could be in trouble.

Add Newton to the list here, no other Patriots as of yet, but not sure how they still play tomorrow (without game day testing)

Not sure about this. They can't really bubble due to size of teams and there are significantly more players than on mlb teams.

They will have to really reconsider the methods in place now though if they intend to go through the season
