The NFL did the right thing to postpone as these players are human and have emotions. They were visibly distraught.

Finish the game when you can. It didn’t have to be last night when hearts were heavy and all they could think about was another person’s life.

I’m willing to bet tons of mistakes would’ve been made on the field last night if they played on.

They can play the game when their minds are cleared.

You can go back to work in time, it doesn’t have to be that very second.
