NFL's Contingency Plan if a Team Suffers a Mass Casualty Situation (i.e. Plane Crash)
Morbid yes, but interesting:
http://www.usatoday.com/story/sports...lans/94610148/ The NFL has had a disaster plan laid out for more than three decades. "We do have a long-standing plan in the event NFL players are lost in a common accident," a league spokesman told USA TODAY Sports. "But today is not the day to discuss our plan out of respect for those who lost their lives." According to ESPN, the league labels the loss fewer than 15 players killed a “Near Disaster,” which gives the impacted team the right to be the first to claim players off waivers for the remainder of the season. That team would continue the season. If the quarterback was among those lost, it would be allowed to select a third-stringer from another team, The commissioner would decide whether a team would continue in a “Disaster” scenario where 15 or more players were killed. Along with the "Near Disaster" protocols if the team is able to finish the season, that team would get the first overall pick in the NFL Draft and there would be a dispersal draft where teams could protect as many as 32 players. |

Its an interesting, if horrible to contemplate, scenario that actually happens from time to time... the soccer team that crashed in the Andes and inspired the book "Alive", the Marshall football team, the soccer team in South America yesterday
Man, what a terrible thing that would be for the NFL |

If the entire Donkeys team went down in a plane crash, I wouldn't shed a tear......
unless I found out John Elway wasn't actually on that flight. |

If this happened to the Chiefs, well we know Christian Ponder is who they would take as the Chiefs QB.

Yeah. And if the refs had, they would've called holding on your Oline all night and the score would've never even been that close. ☺️

I wonder if Elway is working on his disaster plan because he ain't got no Peyton Manning 0.00 no more
