'speck - After a T-Day disaster, I'm hearing a lotta footsteps.

The Steelers will be playing the Ravens practice squad the way things are going with them. Tuesday is most likely wishful thinking with a dozen or more players on the COVID list.

I was hoping to make a move this week .. I did ,just the wrong direction ..

Why is the NFL allowing any guests in team facilities? What happened to protecting the players and staff?

Still playing on Tuesday. That makes sense.

Not surprised about Patricia or Quinn.

That Steeler game at best is tentative.
Here's another WOW moment.. All Denver QBs are out...

'Improvise and adjust': Broncos won't have NFL QB in uniform vs. Saints

There had been no indication the league would be willing to move the game to another date with the Saints already in Denver.

This is over-compensating for Brees out with 11 broken ribs.

Where is Antwaan Randle El? He was on tap for the Steelers a few times.

 

[WIMUSKY]

Ravens
“At least 11 players have tested positive for COVID”
“Twenty players have been added to the reserve/COVID list”
“Ten staffers have tested positive.”

Redirect Notice

So far the game is still on, stupid. I'm trying to put a team on the field in Fantasy..... Good thing I'm locked into the playoffs.......

All I want to do is pick winning teams, not players. Things are bad for picking fantasy position players like QB's!

Thinking outside the box or player roster? No Zamboni drivers in Denver?

Sources: Broncos' bid to start coach at QB nixed

The Broncos are expected to start practice squad wide receiver Kendall Hinton at quarterback Sunday, but the team wanted to start offensive quality control coach Rob Calabrese, sources told ESPN's Adam Schefter.

Methinks we'll soon be seeing a similar story with the word Ravens before the word fined.

Sources: Saints fined, lose pick for no masks

The NFL fined the Saints $500,000 and took away a seventh-round draft pick because they didn't wear masks during their postgame celebrations after beating Tampa Bay in Week 9, league sources told ESPN.

The end of the first sentence shows how much the NFL cares - "Baltimore's game at Pittsburgh is still on for Tuesday night and the NFL intends for it to be played, according to sources."

Sources: Ravens-Steelers still on for Tuesday

Baltimore's game at Pittsburgh is still on for Tuesday night and the NFL intends for it to be played, according to sources.

It's time for the NFL to institute the Doomsday Plan, whatever that is. They are being selfish and aren't caring about people outside the teams. Like families, fans and the general population during a pandemic. This is bigger than football, NFL or NCAA sports. End of rant.

Wow, they sure nailed the Saints. I see the NFL not finishing the season. It's getting worse and worse each week.

On a side note, Homer, not this homer, was the only one who didn't pick the Vikes....
