Waiting for A2 to stand up to Goodell? Good luck with that.

Rog: “Hey Art the Buffalo Fart, we’re moving your game for a third time and you’ll get nothing and like it!”
A2: “Thank you sir, may I have another?!?”

If we weren't undefeated and in a dogfight for home field, I'd give the top-30 players the week off and dress people off the street for WAS. It would look like preseason #4. That's how I'd tell the NFL to go screw itself.

And let me tell you this: I’ve already heard from multiple members of the #Steelers organization about having to play the #WashingtonFootballTeam on three days rest. (These are not happy hunky dory messages.)

Every #COVID schedule change is made w/ containing spread/health as the priority, not competitive balance. But the ? I’m hearing now is: what happens when the collateral damage of a 3rd schedule change ruins any chance of the #Steelers’ competitive balance in its NEXT game?

They probably should cancel the Ravens game. Play it at a later date or not at all.

Ravens should be fined 7 figures and have to forfeit 1st round draft pick for this shit.

This is the NFL's roundabout way of saying the game is going to be moved to week 18.
DRAMA

What the NFL is signaling is if you lose a couple key players, figure out how to rule out a bunch more players so you get an accommodation. Lose your entire QB room and you get the shaft....but lose half your starting offense and they'll give you a pass!

Maybe Harbaugh is a lot smarter than we thought. Lax enforcement of protocols KNOWING a small outbreak could be more devastating to your season than a major one, because you'd rather have a game canceled or postponed than play undermanned.

Let's just play a double header next Sunday.
Howard Griffith had to resort to chop-blocking him during the 1997 AFC Championship Game. An incredulous Kirkland asked Griffith, “Why do you have to use cheap tactics like chop-blocking?” Griffith replied “Why do you have to be a 300-pound linebacker?”

But everyone who was ruled out this week is still ruled out for Wednesday, correct?

Believe so

But the NFL league office is asking the Steelers to sit:

Ben
Watt
Fitzpatrick
And Claypool

To make it even

when the hell is the NFLPA gonna start talking about player safety? Playing all these games on short weeks...Jesus H. Christ: I have a son who plays D3 football---w/ the Fall season cancelled, the coach laughed at the talk of a Spring season b/c of the short recovery time until the next Fall season...The NFL under Goodell really sucks...Where is Pete Rozelle? need him now more than ever...

So the Steelers will now play on short weeks 3 of their final 5 games. If Baltimore can manage to get one of their games cancelled it will trigger a week 18 game which would add another playoff team and cancel the #1 seeds bye. Baltimore could effectively earn themselves a playoff spot as the 8 seed and screw our playoff bye by milking covid.

At the very least, we should exploit their practice squat to run it up to like 40-3 by halftime. Then, sit everyone and turtle.

Wowzers. Now I do wish the Steelers brass would chime in (assuming they haven’t)z

Pretty sure the NFL would rather it wasn't, at this point.

Should have just played on sunday (thursday). At this point, I’m expecting an L vs. WFT, and hoping we can squeeze out an easy W in Friday Night Lights Football or whatever against the Ravens iron man football squad to soften the blow.
