They might have a shortened season, but it's really hard for me to see it. Their plan for continuing the season is terrible. There are some people who think the NBA won't finish, and they're inside of a bubble with all of the players isolated from the world. The NFL has 53 man rosters and coaches for each position along with offensive & defensive coordinators and the head coach.
That's a lot more people they have to test on a regular basis while they are traveling from state to state.
They don't need to let all of the coaching staff there. Just the head coach, off coordinator and def coord. They don't need 100 people on the sidelines.
Trust me, the NFL is not canceling one way or another. The product may be crappy and have a bunch of players testing positive, but they will still get it done. When the pandemic started and everything was being delayed, they went right into free agency and the draft. They did not budge one second and found a way to work. They will do the same here. NFL is happening, bet your money on it!
What happens if Lamar Jackson and a bunch of lineman test positive in the middle of October? Will they just go ahead and play with backups and isolate those infected players for 2 weeks which could potentially be 3 games if a Thursday night game is involved?

They will go forward. LIS, the product may not be as great but the show will go on.
NBA has the best set up with the bubble and there is a lot of risk with the way the NFL is doing this. But they will still play. Too much money at stake.

We'll they'll just be out until they test negative.
Russell Westbrook tested positive last week. He just arrived in the NBA bubble today as he's now in the negative.

I hope you're right. I hope there isn't a major outbreak also especially among the older coaching staff.
All the coaches and equipment managers don't need to be there. Most coaching staff runs what, 50 people deep?
I don't think all of the NBA coaches are allowed in the bubble.
You might be right, but idk if the NFL has actually included that in their plan yet which is another reason why I'm not hopeful. I don't think they did a good job thinking this through.
We've all just seen SHO announce their fall schedule.
Will Fox follow suit? Fox got rod of the PBC news show. Will they lower their number of PBC cards as well?
Pac, Spence, Thurman, Porter, Danny Garcia and others still need dates (if they plan on fighting during the pandemic.)
Yes everyone else will be on FOX. They cant do an announcement like showtime did today because they will have to work around the mlb and college football schedules.
