So Burrow has looked decent?

Jets are gonna put up another trash bag season. My Sunday's will be free for other activities, at least.

Not sure who is worse between them and the Browns

And of course he throws a shovel pass interception. 

Bengals 🤦🏻‍♂️

1st down on the 3 and lose

Lol kicker won’t have a job tomorrow. 

It is hard to shake traditions!

Why did they spike the ball, then call time out?  If they were going to call time out, don't spike the ball.  Because they blew the time out they couldn't run from the 3, because if they got stopped the time would run out.  Bad clock management, but not by Burrow.  At least that is my impression from listening without benefit of video.

Wish the Bengals would have taken one more shot to the end zone with seven seconds left.

Chargers called the timeout. Bengals called their last timeout way before that. So still bad clock management.

Yeah I feel like they could have got something in the end zone at least once.

Thanks, I didn't realize that.

13 seconds 1st down on the 3....have Joe scramble to his right 3x...throw away if needed, maybe run if there....win game I bet

Zeke’s tattoo is going to be awesome in 50 years when he’s old and fat. 

The LA stadium is pretty cool. $5B is fucking insane, though.

Yeah it’s sweet

Silly they can’t have 5,000 or so fans in these stadiums

Indeed. They can easily accommodate fans, though it sounds like more stadiums will have fans for the next game (Saints, at least).

WTF was that? Down 3 and you go for it well within FG range?

Good on Aldon Smith for apparently getting his life together and having a great game after 5 years out of the league.

KC had about 20% capacity something like 16k people.  Looked about like groups of 4, reasonably distanced.

To go with no fans (like MLB) is basically just completely lazy.

:40 seconds left and still down by a FG. Again. WTF are you doing going for it when you're down by 3 and deep in FG range?

KC had 17,000 I thought they said....capacity is 76,400

Yes I was rounding.

The math is pretty simple - 4 people with a row of seats in front and behind, and then two seats to the left and right of the group works out to about 6 feet between groups....roughly 1/6 capacity.  But that's just back of the napkin, and before any other optimization.

If you wanted to be ultra conservative, you could go groups of 2 and still do better than 10% capacity. Supply & demand - jack up ticket prices and maybe you get 25% of revenues (maybe up to 40% revenues with 20% capacity).

I bet if nothing gets drastically worse with Covid by the end of the year theyll all have plans to pack the stadiums in as much as possible.

Each week the percentage allowed in will increase.

Seems like masks actually work really well.  Outdoors and/or with good air circulation should be pretty safe.  I'd eliminate beer & food vendors because otherwise people will have their masks off for half the game.

Browns are bad as the Reds

Don't insult the Reds.
