All of these options prolong the pain by being better than a young player learning the ropes but not enough to succeed in the playoffs. They are all the path to mediocrity. The offense is terrible at so many positions that this season is a wash without immediate improvement. With that in mind...

I'd trust that fly on Mike Pence's head to do a better job protecting players than Goodell.

Cheers to Belichick. Protecting the team and families is the right thing to do. This season is pure chaos. While a Super Bowl run would be nice, keeping everyone safe and feeling valued as people can only be good long-term. Let's sign Newton to a long-term deal once the dust settles and we've...

You're right, I am someone who cares. I'm also figuring that the players, at some point, infect one of the owners or Roger Goodell. And if any of the higher ups pass, you know we'll have lots of talk of tragedies and so forth.

We needed the bubble, as tough as that'd be. Doing things so close to business as usual is remarkably dumb.

MAGA?

We also know he tends to be an "in your face" coach. I'm surprised Brady didn't end up with a pushover so he could be the de facto head coach.

It will be interesting to see if making these easier equates to success for Brady. I'm under the impression he became great -- and stayed great -- because he was constantly battling weather, fatigue, Bill being Bill, and Boston media. Where is the adversity in Tampa, other than 2020 stuff?

It seemed like the team's lost some of the fun offensive players the past few years. Brady has always been a moody guy and Gronk really helped keep things light when TB12 was getting too intense. The point is that team chemistry is a mixture of artistry and luck. We'll see if Brady recapturing...

With Cam's history of injuries, I wonder if BB is going to experiment with splitting time between quarterbacks. If Stidham is reasonably good with the first team, there is no reason to have him bench bound the whole season.

Does anyone know what happens with Cam Newton and his one year deal if there is no season? Would he become a free agent again, or would the contracts never honored just apply to the next season?

Agreed, Tommy Brady.

I'm not clear on how the big four can pay salaries at their current rate with both COVID-19 and the economic downturn. If things get worse with people unable to pay rent, won't the leagues need to shutter some teams altogether to remain profitable -- or bleed less for the next two years?

Competition can be a great thing when it brings out brother and sisterhood. For instance, the Olympics (without occasional nonsense) are a thing of beauty. Professional sports can also be intriguing much like a good movie or show. However, too often in America these events and media end up...

Yup, the guy running away only to get shot in the back by cowards.

100% agreed on this comment. What scares me about how you word it, though, is it almost feels like someone on these forums wants us still -- AFTER EVERYTHING -- to sign the beast. No 100%. No 1,000%.

How does Antonio Brown feel about kneeling? I feel like that is one of the strands we haven't unraveled yet. If that gets boring, maybe we can interview him via Zoom about his thoughts on COVID and rioting. If you guys didn't hear, a Wendy's got lit on fire last night after Hotlanta cops shot a...

Allen tries hard. That's about all he has in common with Brady talent-wise. Allen may evolve into a competent quarterback. But let's not go throwing him a parade for aspiring to mediocrity.

It will be interesting to see who the NFL purge as part of the great 2020 hate cleansing. If Brees isn't the fall guy for the NFL's past anti-kneeling stance, someone else will get fed to the masses to appease them. Hint - it won't be Antonio Brown this time unless he goes MAGA Kanye.

That Saints team was incredible on paper. It was shocking to watch the Vikings take care of them.
