Yep they really had no bye week because it was week 4 their game was cancelled and moved After they prepped and practiced all week. This was going to be a mini bye at least

Man - what a bad day of football it is now. I may not even watch one of the remaining games, which would be a first.

 

 

Liar.........it's Thanksgiving, and honestly the Dallas game actually means something.

Game must’ve been on NFL network.  There’s no way CBS, Fox, ESPN, or NBC would be cool with this.  

[nucci]

we were missing players yet still played the Cards on schedule

[BuffaloRebound]

How’s this for a conspiracy.  Ravens could very well be the 8th place team in the AFC.  If the game gets postponed this week and has to be played in week 18, the League goes to 8 playoff teams per conference.

Crap that probably takes the Bills off the national page / map / broadcast 

 

but as usual I assumed wrong 😑

Definitely works in the ravens favor as beat up as they are. Would of liked to compare inactive lists Thursday or Sunday.

Fair point, I get it. But it's a wonky year for everyone. Just gotta roll with the punches.

 

(I'd like to say more, but it's about Leadership through this time, and it might quickly devolve into the politics/COVID stuff which we are all rightly trying to avoid on the main board.)

For sure, I hear ya.  I didn’t think we would make it this far tbh.  It’s just strange how they pick and choose.  I feel fortunate that the season is still going

This just sucks. Any chance a good college contest can move up? Thanksgiving without football all day is like.. well, like Thanksgiving without Macy’s Parade!

 

Oh. Wait! 😳

[Punching Bag]

Steelers and Ravens were supposed to play on Thursday? 

Don't get NFL network (or ESPN) so unless it cross carried on broadcast station I do not see it.

 

Verizon FIOS put NFL network and ESPN into a sports tier network with a lot of other sports channels as package and then blamed ESPN/NFLN for price.  They could have separated them but then few would pay for that tier.  I rarely watch sports other than NFL so need for it other months.

My bad, Slim.......I thought you meant getting the Bills off the "national map" of conversation, not the broadcast.

 

Again, my apologies.

Yes there is always a thanksgiving night game on NFLN

It's never going to be "fair" this season.  The league will not only be taking COVID cases into consideration, but if/when it makes the most sense to move a game.  And they seem less likely to move Sunday games unless a certain threshold is met  (maybe 6+ active players?).  No one will really know other than the commish and the teams involved.

But the fact is,  it's very easy to move this Ravens game to Sunday since BOTH teams have it open.  And if more cases pop up on Baltimore, they can postpone it till whenever.  If this game was originally scheduled for Sunday I doubt they'd move it unless a bunch more positives come up.

The problem being, no consistency.  
 

why was this game postponed, but the Bills game last week not?  We lost 4 players.  The niners had a game where they were missing 6.  The picking and choosing which games get postponed is the problem imo.  

The Patriots could complain too when they lost Cam Newton due to Covid. Not that am siding with the Patriots but you're right that consistency is not there.
