Detroit falls to 4 & 7

Washington has won 3 of their last 5 to improve to 4 & 7, good for 1st place at the moment in the NFC East

Dallas is 3 & 8
The game scheduled at Pittsburgh between the Baltimore Ravens ( 6 & 4 ) & the Steelers ( 10 & 0 ) last night was shifted to Sunday afternoon due to coronavirus issues with Baltimore.
That game is in further jeopardy after the Ravens closed their training facility until Monday at the earliest after 4 more players tested positive for COVID-19 yesterday.
Quarterback Lamar Jackson is among those who reportedly have been hit by the coronavirus.
Cards Dealt Setback
Arizona Cardinals wide receivers Larry Fitzgerald and Trent Sherfield were added to the reserve/COVID-19 list ahead of Sunday’s game at New England
Arizona now has just 4 healthy receivers on the roster heading into Sunday’s game against the Patriots.
Betting
Federal Justice Minister and Attorney General David Lametti introduced Bill C-13 – “An Act to amend the Criminal Code (single event sport betting)” in the House of Commons.
The proposed changes will give provinces and territories the ability to offer single-event sport betting products and the discretion to manage single-event sport betting in their respective jurisdictions. In provinces and territories that choose to offer single-event sport betting, Canadians would have an opportunity to engage in this activity in a regulated environment, either online or in physical facilities.
The only exception to this is horse racing, as the Bill would maintain the federal government’s role concerning pari-mutuel systems of betting with respect to horse racing.
