One of the less-important details of the apparent murder-suicide involving Kansas City Chiefs linebacker Jovan Belcher this morning is that the Kansas City Chiefs and Carolina Panthers have a football game scheduled for tomorrow afternoon.
There doesn’t appear to be any evidence at this point that the game will be delayed, cancelled or otherwise rescheduled. All we know for now is that the NFL has advised the Panthers’ team plane to travel as scheduled:
Panthers interim GM Brandon Beane says league has advised team to travel as planned. Team charter leaves at 1:15 pm.

Panthers’ travel plans staying on schedule doesn’t mean the game will go on Sunday for sure, but it appears to be headed that way.

How the league handles this game is sure to be heavily scrutinized. Stay tuned to Arrowhead Addict and FanSided.com as the story develops.
Zac Snyder got hooked on the Lions after his dad took him to a Monday Night Football game against the Los Angeles Raiders in 1990. The show put on by Barry Sanders and Bo Jackson that night was only surpassed by what Zac could do with Barry in a game of Tecmo Super Bowl.
