Does this season's SB champs already have an asterisk*??

going AToM.
No. Every team plays their games under the existing circumstances. Just so happens that a regular feature of life which we have not seen in a century, that being plagues, occurred at this place and time, and we're all dealing with it. Unfortunately the 49ers suffered a tremendous volume of injuries that most teams did not experience which had the effect of knocking us out of contention very early on. Whomever wins Super Bowl LV it will be the legitimate champion at the end of the 2020 season.

are they in a bubble right now?

all of that pre sb game interviews and media..the undercover hoahs'....... what happens if a big name like Merhomos or Brady gets the Covid?
We're in a panaramics right now. No need to do all that extra bs.
Lol Chiefs C Kilgore and WR Robinson got a haircut from a barber that had the corvid'.


Test results are pending but they are listed as high risk.

The answer is yes. A lot of lopsided obstacles.

Answer is no.

Brady literally had to go through 3 future Hofers at QB on relatively healthy rosters on his way to #7.
A ring is a ring.

Washington third string qb
brees is playing at an average level at best
GBs D had 3 ints in 7 pass attempts but good for Brady's defense for bailing him out
KC probably had the we worst OL in the history of the SB

relatively healthy rosters? You realize GB was without it's all pro LT as well as KC without their pro bowl LT (along with the rest of the line).

this was an incredibly easy year to win a SB. As always health was key

Meh. If we'd won it, it'd suddenly be called "incredibly hard" around these parts.

The Niners may have suffered the most with injuries but all teams had problems this year because there was no training camp. Some players weren't in playing condition early on. The problem with injuries is it's not how many you suffer it's who gets injured. Big difference between losing your best pass rusher and leader in the secondary than losing a backup DB and a rotational lineman.

How ironic that the Bucs were just healing up in time for the playoffs eh? They got their NT Vea and rookie safety budding star in Winfield back whereas the Chefs were out both starting tackles for the big game as everyone knows.

I remember lots of people recommending to bet on the Packers because Winfield was out .
Why should it? It's harder to win this year than it is any other year. They literally had to get tested everyday, hide in the house and wear all kinds of protective gear going around. That's horrible and creates extra stress. Every team had the same opportunity. They all played the same season. No excuses for any of them. Some people don't like it because Brady won his 7th and want to try to downplay it. But it's just not true. It's legitimate and a very hard fought and earned accomplishment.
