    It will be interesting to see if they throw Cam into the opening game, or hold him in reserve for a while until he gets to know the system.

    With the virus, training camps will be curtailed pretty severely. You think they would be tempted to stick with Stidham at the beginning at least considering he would be familiar with the O-line, plays etc.

    Newton at his best could take this team a long way. Pats had no receivers or RBs to speak of last year, so an X-factor QB could work well. But who knows how healthy he is.

    @barbarian if he gets on a roll, with Bill's brain scheming with him, that could be just amazing.

    Frankly, I think it was disgraceful the way the league treated him a few years ago. The non-calls on him being hit was horrific, and had to contribute to his current injury state. Always enjoyed watching him play.

    I absolutely loved this exchange:

    You've been watching film huh? Watch this

      @nzzp the way he likes to play, and the way they structured the offense didn't help. It will be fascinating to see how Bill and he go, I'd get him starting for sure

        $1.3 million, per week, for a decade.

        Mahomes got paid y'all

        Chiefs probably fucked now though.

          Yeah - should cost them too much, but the way he's been playing, who the hell knows? What a talent - would be delighted to see him and Andy Reid forge a dynasty together. Reid's coaching tree is amazing, such an innovative coach without the championships (until reecently)

                Speaking of Washington Redskins.

                The word is there is a bombshell report due to come out tomorrow in the Washington Post about the team and a heap of allegedly illegal acts the team have been involved with - up to and including the owner.

                I think Washington could be getting a new owner very soon.

                      What is it?

                      I made a bet with my wife that it would be something like windtalkers or something (edit: perhaps codetalkers?).

                      I'm sure they said they would try to"honor Native Americans and those who've served" so the names for Native American units would be a good starting point (whether you agree or not).

                        The new team name hasn't come out.

                        The article that came out was 15 former female staff accusing the Washington organisation of sexual harassment and abuse - including senior executives.

                          My dog's Indian name is "barks at fairies". Make of that what you will.

                            NFL superstars are coming out on social media questioning how the season can start safely in its proposed format ie just like normal. I can't see how they can safely play a high contact sport without having set up a bubble, or a few bubbles. Fanciful on the part of the league really

                              Yeah the NBA bubble has been incredibly difficult to set up, and that's just with 22 teams and 15-20 man rosters.

                              Not sure how a contact sport with 32 teams and 53 man rosters is going to manage.
