    So we are going to get the Washington Football Team on a short week when they are coming off the mini bye. Steelers get screwed again because other teams can't follow the protocols.

    Not sure what added time gives the Ravens beyond getting control of their outbreak but that shoots my weekend to shreds

    Maybe the Ravens will be disciplined. Maybe it will actually be a penalty with some real teeth, like being stripped of a high draft pick. Unfortunately, I don't see the league doing what it should be doing, which is compensating the Steelers. They did not get a true bye. They didn't even really get much extra time off this week because the decision was made so late. Now they have to play Washington on a short week and battle through the final six games of the season on less rest than every other team.

    Seriously though what do you want them to do? Forfeit was never a realistic option as much as people want it to be. The NFL is never going to do that.

    First, I don't want the league to lie and say that a forfeit is an option if they really aren't going to do it. Then I want the league to strip the Ravens of a high draft choice and award it to the Steelers as compensation for ****ing up Pittsburgh's schedule with their carelessness.

    My first response would be no especially Jackson since he has to be quarantined for 10 days starting last night but the way the league has handled this, I'm going to say everyone plays.

    So you think the NFL should transfer a draft pick from the Ravens to the Steelers? Somebody isn't living in reality lol. By that logic every victim of Spygate should have been receiving Patriots picks.

    What if a Steelers coach did something stupid like that? What if Joey Porter was still on the staff? Would you feel the same way then?

    I have a superstition of drinking coffee out of a Steelers cup on days that we have a game. Now I have to use one on Tuesday?? You're killin' me Smalls!

    That was my thought as well. Those guys tested positive. There is no way they should be able to play. I'm also wondering about Calais Campbell and Brandon Williams. I'm not sure about Campbell, but Williams is on the COVID list due to close contact with Dobbins and Ingram. He and Campbell both missed the game against the Titans with injuries. The four extra days gave them a much better chance of being able to take the field against Pittsburgh. Even if the game is played on Tuesday, the delays have helped the Ravens and hurt the Steelers.

    Yes, I would feel exactly the same way. The Ravens have been caused this and they should pay for it. Also, you should learn to read more carefully. I never wrote that it would happen. In fact, I wrote that it wouldn't happen, but it should.

    So how will this affect fantasy? I have both Conner and Claypool on my team. If they decide to move it again after Sunday's games are played, am I screwed?

    I know that Jackson cannot play, that was in the Espn article. I think with the other 2 it comes down to the results of their next test.

    The NFL has completely messed this season up and they could have used other sports to try and get this right. Too bad the Steelers are having an awesome season and have been the most affected team.

    Would happen or not, you're still the one suggesting it. And maybe blame, you know, the actual virus for causing this. Can we penalize Covid?
