NFL fines three head coaches $100K each for not wearing masks on sidelines

Funny sight regarding masks in last night games. All refs had a mask on, they run together to all conference, and immediately lower their masks when huddled in a group of 4.

Not sure they understand the purpose of the masks.

Yep. It's also pretty common to see people with the mask covering their mouth but not their nose. Might work for mouth-breathers, but....

Refs, umpires, managers, coaches, etc wearing masks outdoors are all just PR moves.

Next to impossible to get it outside. (Masks in domes, maybe?)  But optics and stuff.

Yep. Especially when they are tested daily.

When you are huddled close together in a circle and yelling at each other, not hard to get it at all outside. If you do that with an infected person, I promise you will have it too.

Now Sultan's point of them all being tested is valid, and I agree it is largely optics. But poor optics when the only time the camera is really focusing on them, they remove their masks while in a group.

Is Foles in due to injury or ineffectiveness?

The entire staff should be. Quinn should have never been retained.

Falcons stink worse. Much worse.

A whopping 4 points worse. Yuuuuge gap between the teams. More worse than any two teams have ever been separated by. We've never seen anything like it. The biggest gap in history.
