COVID concerns continue: Browns to be without head coach Stefanski on Sunday

.

This is their first playoff game in two decades. lmao.

 

17 years, I believe? 2002?

I meant two DECADES. I've edited my post.

 

so..wouldnt Tomlin be considered a "close contact" before and after the game... what about all the other Brown's coaches..?

 

If this happens to the Ravens, the NFL moves the game to accommodate.

 

Even though Alex Van Pelt is the Offensive Coordinator, doesn't Stefanski call the plays? This will cause a big disruption in both preparation and execution.

I hope everyone on the Steelers have remained in their own personal bubbles. When Denzel Ward tested positive, the news about Joe Haden quickly followed.

 

Some of us could only hope Tomlin would be a close contact. LOLOL (only half joking) Should hurt some of the play calling since he handles most of that.

 

From the CDC: What does close contact of a person with COVID-19 mean?

Someone who was within 6 feet of an infected person for a cumulative total of 15 minutes or more over a 24-hour period starting from 2 days before illness onset (or, for asymptomatic patients, 2 days prior to test specimen collection) until the time the patient is isolated.

 

I sure hope none of our players caught it from the last game vs those idiots.

What is it with teams having these outbreaks right before they play us. Getting ridiculous.

 

Not a big Tomlin fan either but that's pretty low.

 

Could hurt then...Why that Idiot runs Chubb as little as he does is beyond me

 

When do they announce the players?

 

Agreed. Anything that makes the Steelers overconfident is bad. Almost lost to half the Ravens' team, lost to Cincy, yada yada yada...

 

They can't set him up with a booth to himself so he can call the game from upstairs?

 

don't wish covid on anyone

 

They will just conveniently move the game to some other day, some other month at some odd time to enable a fair competition. This will be our bye week. We will play the Rats next so that Benny Lava's head can explode, SDOT will protest the playoffs and in the 4th round of the playoffs we will revisit those previously ailing Brownies or be eliminated by Buffalo or KC before then. Superbowl will be postponed to a nice March afternoon where Marsha will feel comfortable in his new home stadium.

 

No serious health concerns but just maybe test positive till Feb 7th....

 

It's Pittsburgh. You can't even go into a bar without being forced to eat hot food. The rules are incredibly strange to say the least. I guess you can get Covid but once you eat some fries it magically goes away, even if you are 6 feet apart drinking a Corona.

If he tests positive they probably will ban him from the state altogether.

 

What they doing over there playing kissy face!!!

 

It's a joke

 

It's all a joke, and our leaders remind us of that every time they flout the rules they set for the rest of us.

 

Have him zoom coach, get him an on the sidelines robot.

If has to throw a challenge flag make the robot shoot out Red Power Steering fluid

And if the Steelers lose he can have the robot can come out say to Tomlin, you have been Terminated.

 

That's tough for a very good Cleveland run game... Bitonio is Heyward's man, so he should eat.

 

Me either. My cousin's husband's brother has asthma and is likely about to die because of it. Most people may be fine but it's still something to take seriously.
