Thank God they conduct meetings virtually or we’d likely have a whole position group out.

I agree. 10 months of this and still going strong. It's a serious situation but I'm really tired of it.

I agree. 10 months of this and still going strong. It's a serious situation but I'm really tired of it. I'm to the point where it seems that the Browns are totally out of sink compared to how the rest of the NFL is handling the Covid-19 situation.
Just looking at the NFL's news for Jan 2...
Latest News...
1. QB Aaron Rodgers aims to rewrite own Packers single-season TD record.
2. Titans RB Derrick Henry could make NFL history vs. Texans.
3. Vikings WR Justin Jefferson looks to catch rookie record in finale.
4. Tom Brady has 'totally exceeded' Bruce Arians' expectations as Buccaneers quarterback.
5. NFL players react to College Football Playoff Semifinal matchups.
6. NFL Power Rankings, Week 17: Steelers back in top 10, Patriots hit new low.
7. QB Index, Week 17: Aaron Rodgers reclaims No. 1 ranking.
8.Next Gen Stats... Joe Burrow, Tua Tagovailoa or Justin Herbert: Which rookie QB's in the best position to succeed?
AND NOW, THE NFL'S NEWS FROM "CLEVELAND"...
9. Cleveland Browns facility closed after positive test on coaching staff.
QUESTION...Who the hell is in charge of the NFL's "COVID TESTING PROTICAL?"
Maybe it's just me, but it sure seems that the Browns have been getting 'A BUNCH' of Covid-19 "positive results" when we compared to other NFL franchises.
Either the Browns franchise is pee poor at keeping the franchise's facilities clean, disinfected and free of Covid-19...OR..
..THE NFL'S standard for "Covid-19 testing" of anything to do with the Browns is at a higher standard compared to the other 31 teams in the NFL.
It just seems that something is not quite right when it comes to the NFL's Covid-19 testing protocol. Maybe they could explain to the Browns fans?
FOOTBALL IS NOT BASEBALL

Jeremy Fowler @JFowlerESPN · 12m Steelers corner Joe Haden has been flagged for a Covid-19 situation, and though not finalized, the Steelers are planning to play without him vs. Cleveland, per source.
Steelers wil be without Haden tomorrow
"First down inside the 10. A score here will put us in the Super Bowl. Cooper is far to the left as Njoku settles into the slot. Moore is flanked out wide to the right. Chubb and Ford are split in the backfield as Watson takes the snap ... Here we go."

It's really quite simple,test positive you're out,test negative you're in. But of coarse there are many Ancient Astronaut theorists who see something way more complicated.
Indecision may,or maynot,be my problem

Jake Trotter Retweeted
Brooke Pryor @bepryor · 55s Joe Haden has tested positive for COVID-19 and won't play tomorrow, source told @DanGrazianoESPN .
Updated COVID-19 protocols mandate a player who tests positive must isolate for min of 10 days, even if asymptomatic -- meaning Haden will likely be out for first round of playoffs
"First down inside the 10. A score here will put us in the Super Bowl. Cooper is far to the left as Njoku settles into the slot. Moore is flanked out wide to the right. Chubb and Ford are split in the backfield as Watson takes the snap ... Here we go."

Brooke Pryor @bepryor Contact tracing with Joe Haden testing positive is the next concern for the Steelers. Close contacts would have to isolate and miss practice time, but could still be available for playoffs.

That's what they get for having someone who spent time in Cleveland on their roster.

Maybe we don't run as tight a ship as other franchises do. I remember years back when we were having all types of problems with Staph infections.

The only thing that remains from that era is the owner. I fail to see any connection there.
Intoducing for The Cleveland Browns, Quarterback Deshawn "The Predator" Watson. He will also be the one to choose your next head coach.

Alvin Kamar tested positive Friday, they say on ESPN if he stays a systematic he can play next week, how is that possible? Because he doesn't play for the browns yeah, they’ve already said he could play Sunday ... so that means Ward should be good Saturday or Sunday given the timelines .. we’ll see Right, but what would you bet that ward wont be allowed to play Sunday but lamar will

That's good news for our safety group, figure to see Harrison maybe taking some snaps at FS with Redwine...or at least hope so.

So ward positive, then Johnson positive, I would assume Mitchell will be the next to test positive. Even if he doesn't and we win, we would be headed to the playoffs with no ward or johnson. So just Mitchell and a bunch of practice squad players...

5 players with covid 2 coaches but the nfl refuses to call it a outbreak. Why cant goodell just postpone the playoffs for a week? Let all the teams try to get most of thier players back?

It's getting to the point where I refresh my yahoo page and there's a new positive case/covid list case. I don't want anymore news heading into this game. Nada!

No. You are not spot on.
Actually you don't know a thing about infectious disease.
If you look around then everybody has done a bad job.

"The NFL has applauded the Browns for the handling of their COVID-19 crisis over the past two weeks. The league has told the Browns that most of the positive tests were beyond their control and that they’ve been going above and beyond the call of duty with adhering to protocols."

lol, I was about to post that too. I think "technically" you're suppose to put a link, but that is what I just read myself. Anyways... Can anyone confirm the following (approximately): CB1: Money Mitch (better ball out!) CB2: AJ Green (ouch) Slot: Tavierre Thomas (ewww) I think that would only leave MJ Stewart (yuck) for depth FS: Ronnie Harrison SS: Karl Joseph w/ Redwine likely platooning in as possibly the 5th or 6th DB Moffatt and Tedric Thompson for depth?? If any QB can't put up decent numbers against that, they deserve to be released. That has to be the slowest secondary I've ever seen. Redwine is our fastest player

With their 1st pick in the 2021 NFL Draft the Cleveland Browns select... a cornerback? Perhaps?

I would guess Stewart over Green. Green is on the practice squad for a reason.
