Ain’t that stupid?

Last year, the NFL staged a "game" between the broncos and saints wherein the broncos had no QB on their roster for covid-related reasons.

It was an embarrassment.

And this year, the saints (in a moment if karma) had a similar problem. All of their top QBs were unavailable, but due to a rule change they were able to get a rookie QB with no experience in the NFL (and apparently no skills) to play against the dolphins.

And the results were similar. It was a embarrassment.

There was no reason for this to happen in either year; putting on these exhibitions strictly for money is just dumb.

But at least they kinda, sorta realize it's a problem.

So after the game, they "tweaked" the rule again. Test positive and you can return to the team after 5 days, without showing a negative test. As long as you say you feel okay.

See? They fixed it.

You probably won't see dumb games like that anymore. They'll be dumb in other ways.

And pro'lly you'll have more players test positive.
