If we lose this game we will never ever hear the end of it.....

I keep fearing that the Governor Is going to open his ******* philly mouth and ban them from playing it or some other ******* stupidity ...

Getting through this with a win is immensely important especially with covid threatening every week here on out...

Don't put it past him, for an MIT grad he is rather obtuse.

local radio station in Balt is saying 1 more player tested positive late this afternoon
 
My question now is what does this cost the Ravens draft wise... NO just lost a pick and 500k for a lesser infraction... if the Ravens don’t get The total smack down for costing the nfl the thanksgiving night game then the league is completely covering for them ala ray rice part 1 or RayRay getting stabby...

I’d like to see something with more direct consequences yardage, points, ineligible players etc.). Money and Future draft picks don’t seem to have much effect.

Is it wrong that i am more afraid of the rats finding a diamond in the rough That benefits them for years fielding a scrub team Tuesday than i was of them beating us when they were at full strength lol
 
The term close contact is for contact tracing purposes only so that everything doesn't have to be closed everytime someone contracts. The reality is you could get it easily from a tackle and a block. The NFL likes to say no one has transmitted in game. That is a load of ****. How can you possibly know that.

Really, Titans just played the Ravens. the Titans had no positive test. your theory would say otherwise, which pretty much proves the NFL point.

A good time to remind everyone Florio hates the Steelers. When reporting the Steelers had positive tests this week he termed it as "bracing for multiple positive tests." It was two and only one player. He wanted to make it sound more dramatic than it was and at the same level as Baltimore's failure to follow protocol.

Right, but it does tell you who is deemed to be at higher risk for exposure.

He overanalyzes everything.

It's about as accurate as 6 feet social distancing. And closing stuff at 11.

So a lot of plaguebird sympathizers are calling for the game to be rescheduled for”safety reasons”

If its unsafe to play, then forfeit, because:

A.) your organization is claiming all of this stemmed from a staffer that didn’t wear a mask... so by your own admission your team is at fault
B.) the Steelers positives came in on Friday so the game would have already happened by then

C.) you knew monday that you had cases... you elected to only put one player on the covid list as a close contact... since the outbreak was much larger either you missed something or the players lied about exposure

D.) the covid IR Rules gave you ample time to get players in and started on the testing path last week... you didn’t even have to sign them, just have them ready to go and started in the protocol in case of catastrophe...
Had you started prepping guys on Wednesday they could be practicing monday...

E.) eventually this will hit the Steelers.... they will take their lumps... hopefully they will prep accordingly and not be caught with their pants down like Baltimore....
