First the NFL takes away our bye week because another team canβt get their Covid situation together, now they take away our Thanksgiving primetime game for the same reason. Smh.

Whoa, no Ravens Steelers tomorrow? I was looking forward to that.
Yeah, sucks.
Only good game on the slate.

Kid is a great ballplayer. But I'd like to know what the league is supposed to do. Quite a myopic comment on his part.
Welp, it appears the #Steelers won't play on Sunday against the Ravens. Ravens not allowed back into their facility until Monday at the earliest. The Ravens should be forced to forfeit and the Steelers would be paid in that event.

I heard Lamar Jackson has the 'Vid....That is not cool

Baltimore Ravens QB Lamar Jackson (illness) has tested positive for COVID-19, according to sources.
Wrote this about NFL priorities when Packers-49ers was played with infections on both teams. If they play Ravens-Steelers with continuing infections, more true than ever:https://t.co/qqX9z3B8UK

Lions game now moved too....
Packers-Lions time change
The Detroit Lions remain in perpetual disarray but the Packers are fighting for the No. 1 overall seed in the NFC, so Fox elected to flex their Dec. 13 game at Ford Field to 3:25 p.m. CT.
The Packers are typically network darlings, and spiced by a prolific offense, they are now playing four of their final five scheduled games in front of a national audience despite Philadelphia, Detroit and Carolina being a combined 10 games under .500.
Sundayβs game against Philadelphia is at 3:25 p.m., then the game in Detroit, and the league scheduled the Panthers game for 7:15 p.m. on Saturday, Dec. 19. The Packers then host the Tennessee Titans on Sunday, Dec. 27 at 7:20 p.m.
If the season finale in Chicago remains a noon kick, the Packers will have played six prime-time games and four games in the national 3:25 p.m. time slot.
