Pandemic and Game Attendance -MERGED

#77

Some good info in this article:

Quote:“Attendance will be a state-by-state, county-by-county thing,” an NFL source told Kaplan. “It will not be a one size fits all. I wish they would push back the start of the year to October to give us more time to learn from these other leagues.”
  ...


A loss of at least $3 billion would hit the NFL if fans could not attend games all season, which has prompted the NFL and NFLPA to discuss how to handle the 2021 salary cap. Around a third of the league’s teams have had someone test positive for the virus. This remains a delicate, fluid situation that has coaches uncertain on the logistics of the season.

A push back to a later start has been my suggestion/recommendation since April. 
Unfortunately, the TV deals may prevent that. Networks may not be willing to shift other programming schedules to 
accommodate - and the league will not sacrifice that money. ($5billion)
If they drop fan attendance revenue from 3 bil to 1.5 bil for distancing - they can live with that, but they won't give up that TV money.
