Let’s get right to it:
For the second consecutive League Week, there have been postponements announced for two NFL games.
The two ballgames affected are the Denver/New England matchup and the Buffalo/Tennessee matchup.
What we know as of now, Sunday morning before Kickoff is the following:
Monday Night
Denver
New England 5pm EDT (ESPN Telecast)
LA Chargers
New Orleans 8:15pm EDT (ESPN Telecast)
Tuesday Night
Buffalo
Tennessee 7:oopm EDT (CBS Telecast)
HOWEVER
There is an important note regarding Tuesday Night’s implications if this game reaches Kickoff:
Tennessee’s COVID-19 outbreak impacts Buffalo, as the Bills were scheduled to play the Kansas City Chiefs on “Thursday Night Football” in Week 6.
If the Tennessee-Buffalo game is played on Tuesday, the Week 6 matchup against Kanas City would be moved from Thursday to Sunday. If Buffalo-Tennessee is postponed, the Bills’ Week 6 matchup against the Chiefs will be played as originally scheduled Thursday.

For the time being, the only difference for our purposes is the games affected simply won’t be reflected in today’s results. Those contests will be counted as they happen.
As for tiebreakers, I’m going to hold off on that until The League provides clarity on the Tuesday matchup.
Look for further updates as warranted.
Otherwise, enjoy the games and good luck.
