If we're going to have an outbreak (makes sense with where Ohio is at right now), then thank goodness for the bye.
There is no level of sucking we haven't seen; in fact, I'm pretty sure we hold the patents on a few levels of sucking NOBODY had seen until the past few years.

It seems like we are one of the most cautious teams when it comes to going virtual.
Have we even had a confirmed test yet in the season?

I hope that a lot of those meetings today involve trying to figure out all the ways they are failing and how much of it can be corrected this year, and if any of it can be corrected by trading for assets before the deadline tomorrow.
Hell, even IF Delpit comes back, we're still weak at Safety behind him. We really need to get someone in here that will be around for a while.

Good time to have it ... hope everyone stays smart and safe over the next 10 days

Great insight, especially on safety, Purp. Are you free and available;able to run those meetings? Because we don't seem to have a handle on these situations in-house. I agree with your priorities. This status quo could leave us at .500 at best if we remain complacent.

Hopefully he remains negative and the team does as well over the bye

Appreciate the clarification. Thought he could have it and still test negative later. Regardless, I wish everybody all the best fighting this.

Listening to Pittsburgh media, sounds like Ben was a precautionary thing

This is real bad news.
Contact tracing could sideline many.

This wasn't a surprise given Ohio's performance the last two weeks. Obvious that the politicized COVID issues and our measures haven't worked well enough. Hope all are well.
Really not certain what our game options are, especially after Buckeyes game cancellation.

We would be at a competitive disadvantage if we're quarantining without a lot of positive tests. Canceling the game would come into play, imo, if we start racking up the positives.
Guys getting added to quarantine without enough time to come off with negatives tests would really suck.
There is no level of sucking we haven't seen; in fact, I'm pretty sure we hold the patents on a few levels of sucking NOBODY had seen until the past few years.

Possibly reschedule the game to Monday or Tuesday .. we’ve seen the league do that a few times thus far

Pardon my ignorance, is it true that players can be forced to sit because of "contact" even if they test negative?

I think they have to test negative an X amount of days...I think it's 3 but perhaps I'm wrong....but they def. go through a protocol just being in a certain contact with that identified someone.

Hmm... almost seems as if you would have to extend game time if you're going to exclude players simply because of their proximity to an infected individual.
