This ruined my weekend.

Cam is having a great year thus far. Now he'll be out until week 7? If they postpone week 4.

On the flip side having an extra bye week this season is crucial for this team.

Realistically if you have this many players starting to test positive then the season isn't going to last to week 7. Always look on the bright side of life.


NFL had 6 months to build a protocol. The protocol at this point is just push through as best you can. They can't even get the teams to agree to not have fans in the stands. Or to get the coaches to wear a mask for a couple hours straight.

Pats-Chiefs will be moved to monday at 7:05 PM ET on CBS.

Sucks for the Pats to have Hoyer out there. And also for ESPN because their MNF game is moved to 8:50 PM ET.

NFL really missed this thing up, should have been played later in the season as a marquee match up and to avoid colliding with MNF.

Guess they have no respect for ESPN at all, nor the Patriots for that matter.

Sony Michel is out Tonight (quad)

James White will be back
Damien Harris might be re-activated off IR

Brian Hoyer will start...ugh


If to believe reports everywhere basically. Could be a Belichick mind tricking Andy Reid to come up with a game plan for Hoyer. He is a known commodity and lots of game tape on him while there’s almost nothing on Stidham other than Auburn.

Patriots 11 pt underdogs, I think they beat the spread.

Chiefs 27
Patriots 20

Hoyer is def starting. Stidham has been inactive all year. Maybe if Newton were out for the year they'd look at Stidham, but for a game or two, it's Hoyer.

So is Cam going to be away from the training facility for 2 weeks so he would be out 3 weeks?

Could be back for Broncos game week 5, if he tests negative later this week.

Hey guys, if you can, take a gander over on the Patriots Board.

I thought that it was like a 14-day Quarantine?
Then you have to test negative a 2nd time, 24 hours after the first negative?

tom pelissero tweeted something yesterday or saturday, it was on NBC sports Boston but cant find it now. Basically its the best case scenario.

https://www.nbcsports.com/boston/patriots/how-much-time-could-cam-newton-miss-patriots-covid-19reserve-list

symptoms of COVID-19:

1• If Newton is asymptomatic, he can return five days after his initial positive test IF he returns two consecutive negative PCR tests at least 24 hours apart. This is the one scenario where Newton could play next Sunday against the Broncos.


2• If Newton is asymptomatic, he can return 10 days after his initial positive test. That would mean he'd also miss New England's Week 5 game versus Denver.


3• If Newton is symptomatic, he can return 10 days after his initial positive test IF at least 72 hours have passed since he last showed symptoms.

All three scenarios require clearance by a team physician and consultation with the NFL's Chief Medical Officer before Newton's return.

Hoyer is like plucking a random fan out of the stands and making him throw. Lol

Hoyer is so bad. So bad. So **** bad. McDaniels is a lot of the time too.

Terrible refs. Terrible QB play. Only down 3. But just awful offense.

They should've just kicked the FG at the end and tied it up.

Lots of missed opportunities that quarter.

Defense is going to need to carry

mcdaniels got too greedy, just Spike the ball and get 3 pts, then get the ball to start the 2nd half.

all in all, im sensing an upset tonight..
