That's gonna be the problem. The good news is that this variant is like a more contagious cold (also a coronavirus). The bad news is that this variant is like a more contagious cold.

I wonder who else in the QB room is gonna end up positive.

Well, if Wentz winds up missing the Raiders game, I presume that the Colts would be "running the damned ball" a lot.

That's the good news ...... the bad news is that the Raiders would obviously be expecting it, and subsequently concentrating on stopping it (the run game) a lot more than stopping the pass with Wentz not being on the field.

Problem is, with our o-line still out, don't see how we run it anyway... if one or more of our RB's get tested positive, I don't know what the hell we're supposed to do.

I would note that two of the most vaccinated leagues in the world (Premier League and NHL) are both postponed their respective seasons.

Subsequently, perhaps we could throw in a few trick plays ....... something like pitching the ball to Jonathan Taylor as if running a sweep play, but instead have Taylor take a couple of steps backward and throw the ball downfield to a wide-open receiver.

We will miss Wentz’s ability to set us up for the run but the Colts liked Elinger a whole lot. I presume that given Wentz’s history everyone assumed that the backup had a decent chance of actually playing and they went with the rookie. Now we get to find out if they were right. If this keeps up, however, I have to think games will be postponed just like other leagues and bowl games have.

They test more often than just Mondays.

Unvaccinated players get tested every day of the week at the team facility or at an approved alternative testing location.

Next man up,

Get the shit outta the building for playoffs

Yep was just going to post that I was incorrect.

Per Adam Schefter a few mins ago.

NFL and NFLPA are getting close to adopting the new CDC guidelines that would reduce the quarantine time to five days from 10 days for all players, including those who are unvaccinated. Agreement could be done today, per sources.

Per Tom Pelissero 21 mins ago.

#Colts QB Carson Wentz's status for Sunday's game against the #Raiders remains TBD pending updated COVID protocols.

What we do know: Like all players who test positive, Wentz now gets a 90-day test holiday and thus isn't at risk of missing any more games through Super Bowl LVI.

And due to mandatory school vaccinations of ALL school children we are close to eliminating mumps, measles and rubella from the PLANET. No one has had polio or small pox in decades. Tuskegee occurred 70 years ago. Two major viruses have been eliminated since then. Its a nonsense excuse.
