Will the stadiums be half full because of social distancing?

I’m guessing it will but OTA and maybe TC won’t happen.

I think the NFL will try to brute force it to happen, but I can't imagine we'll be able to have 75k fans in one place this fall. And I bet the on-field product will be a little shite since all of the players are going to be very out of shape with no gyms open right now.

With the Olympics pushed off now, I'm leaning towards "no". At least not on time, maybe the season will be truncated. I'm hopeful though.

I wonder if they would try to have games in places that are not being affected very much. North/South Dakota, Wyoming etc where there aren’t many people.
Maybe play at a college stadium with no fans? Testing will be fully attainable by then so that would help. Just a thought

If this isn't under control by September we have bigger problems than the NFL season starting.
I think it'll be contained by then. Normal start, unless they cancel it out before we have it under control. |

It's definitely gonna happen, it's just a matter of when/how. I could see them cutting the season to 12 games and eliminating the 4 out of conference games.

My brother-in-law is a chief of police.
Based upon the briefings he gets, he doesnt think we'll be able to have thousands of people gathered in one area for several months (goodbye summer concerts). Will be interesting if that improves in time for September - but it's not looking good right now. Of course (disclaimer), the most important thing is getting a handle on this and preventing as many people from dying as possible.

if they do start the season on time I do wonder if they'll still try to do the international games as well, or keep them in the country.

I probably shouldn't reveal this, but Sandbox Simulations is in discussions now to simulate the 2020 season for the NFL.

Can we go back and simulate 2020 March Madness?
