    BS NFL. This shouldn’t be any different than an injury. If a team can’t, or won’t play, it’s a forfeit. This is why I’ve watched no NFL other than Steelers.

    You aren’t alone.

    I could be wrong here, but I don’t think so.

    I'd rather have the extra day of prep for the Bills game than the Washington Football Team game

    Its very different from a regular injury. A regular injury is not contagious and potentially life threatening

    You have your opinion on how it should be handled and what it is, and I have mine. My mind won’t change and I’m sure yours won’t either. Go Steelers . . . whatever day we end up playing.

    I don't know. Alex Smith is beginning to round into form and the have found a workhorse back. I can definitely see the Washington football team in the role of spoiler.

    Can a division champ be considered a “spoiler?” I think that’s where they’re headed.

    People were wondering why the Rats and Cowboys game was moved to Monday but the Steelers and WFT game stayed on Sunday next week. I'm just saying that I would prefer not moving that game to Monday so they don't have the short week the following week going up against the Bills.

    Are you saying Washington is going to be a tougher win than the Bills?

    They may be headed there but I'd say any team that's <50% could be considered a spoiler. BTW anyone know when the last time a team with a loosing record won their division?

    If it’s going to get worse, why stop now and start when it’s worse?

    In 2015, the 7-8-1 Carolina Panthers won the NFC South and hosted a playoff game of their own.

    It may depend on which Steelers are available. If Tuitt tested positive, that means he probably wouldn't be back for the Washington game, but he might be there against the Bills. Of course, we don't know how bad this is going to get for the Steelers just yet. Perhaps it will just be Tuitt, Hawkins, and Buggs. Perhaps it will be a lot more.

    They do seem to be the least dysfunctional of that division.

    The fact that’s it’s moved to Tuesday isn’t a major disadvantage other than us being out of a practice/prep routine. Having to play again Sunday against Washington on 4 days rest is complete BS. Not saying the league is purposefully trying to screw us but that’s the only way to look at that scenario.

    I wonder why they started the game without the covid test results.
    My daughter played soccer this fall and some of teams didn't have enough players to put a whole team on the field. Most the missing players were held out due to possible contact, not even positive test results.

    the Giants have beaten them twice already and will be tied at the top of the NFC Least division if they beat the Bungals this Sunday and the Eagles lose to the Seahags.

    Washington is playing much better now than it had been earlier in the season. I think they are more likely to keep winning than the Giants, though I'd have to take a closer look at the schedules.
