I foresee it going like this -- forge ahead, postpone and reschedule as possible, rinse and repeat until either a 2 week total league suspension happens or complete shutdown of the season.

The arbitrary rules (coaches mask up, players don't have to, players contact during game but can't post game) and impossibility of enforcing the protocols outside of the league offices and stadiums are really going to turn it into a [BLEEP] show.

tacks might not be able to play for a 2nd straight week... how's that gonna work out with bye weeks. Do they forfeit? It's a mess.
A multi billion dollar business should have had a better plan in place I think. More contingencies. Instead they assumed thousands of players and coaches and staff would all self bubble and do all the right things all the time.
Contracts are all guaranteed now across the league iirc. Bunch of players probably don't care if the season is canceled at this point. Especially players on bad teams.
