You'd have to have all the TV crews do it. All the officials who have regular jobs as well do it. Food prep, training crews. It's just a massive overhaul for 7 months. Then you have to actually have the place to do it. There's not a place I know of that could handle that. |

Shit, he needs to be getting experience. Sitting a year for a rookie is not good

1. Continues to spend time with her, but also practices 6 days a week with 60 other dudes, travels to other cities, stays in hotels, plays against ~30 other dudes who have been practicing with 30 other dudes, all of whom who have been traveling, staying in hotels and playing against 60 other dudes, who have been.... x16? OR 2. Goes to the grocery store once a week so he can feed and spend time with his dying mother? I think Logic / Reality weighed in on this one. |

Who was the shortish kid with mauler strength/technique we picked up out of the SEC as a UDFA? C/G prospect. Might give him an opening. I guess Durant could steal a gig as well. The coaching staff has a damn tough job in front of them separating the wheat from the chaff here. Fortunately we have arguably the best in the business and Andy himself has an OL background. Anyone ever watch the films of him coaching linemen? Jesus that guy knows his stuff. It's just incredible seeing him teach out there. Andy Reid is just a damn near perfect head football coach. |

Maybe he just realized his hip needs a year to get right, had other concerns, and the chiefs said **** yeah well push your cheap deal another year down the road because you were gonna red shirt anyway.

Yeah, it sucks to see that he is out. It feels like this is hitting us hard...but other teams have to deal with it too. Did you see what happened to the Pats? The real question is how are we compared to the other teams?
It's really hard to fault these guys for taking an option that is given to them by their employer. If they were just abandoning the team in the middle of their contract, then I could see the vitrol....but this is a legal option that is endorsed by the league and by the NFLPA. |

It would be understandable if it were killing 23 year old professional athletes. It's not. The equipment guy making $40k is going to work... There isn't a mandate to play sports in college or the pros. Give up your scholarship or your job if you want to. Fans that are going to work, and have been going to work the entire time have the right to think you're a bit of a tart if you opt out of going to work. |

No going out to restaurants? No traveling/going on airplanes? No going to gyms? No getting a haircut? Unless he plans to go on a complete self-lockdown, the risk of spreading the virus to his family is still present by going about his daily life outside of football. And at least in a football setting, he'd have access to daily testing and top of the line virus prevention/mitigation protocols. |

The best linemen left now after Warford opted out are guys like Demar Dotson, Cordy Glenn and Josh Kline, basically Jags.

Also, his job has provided an option for him to sit out, so he doesn't need to quit. |
