It's no different than playing a Thursday night game. Mon, Tues, Wed and Thur(Game Day). in this case, Thur, Fri, Sat and Sun(Game Day). hell they could move it to Thur and play the Wash game Monday. or They could move it to Fri and play the game Tues if they want to.

They should have had several days off, but because of the sloppy *** Rats they practiced, then got postponed to a 4th date. Thursday, Sunday, Tuesday, Wednesday. Pick a day of the week and come take this L ratbirds.
 
Ravens better be losing draft picks over this ****. It’s hard not to think they are trying to get the game moved. Broncos played with a WR at QB and the NFL said tough ****, but with the ravens somehow it’s anything they want.
 
It better be a 5 pm start. and they don't even no if NBC will be broadcasting the Pitt/Raven game. i'll be so pissed if I can't watch it. maybe KDKA will broadcast it

So the Steelers will now play on 3 days rest before Washington on Sunday?

And anyone trying to compare by saying it's no different than playing a Thursday night game after a Sunday game are out of their minds. Thursday games are played between two teams with the same amount of time off and the reward of a few extra days off afterward. We would have to play Sunday and again next Sunday against the Bills. Three games in 12 days.
 
Stupid ravens. Big Ben and DJ played in the MAC. Don’t they know Wednesday is all about the MACtion.
 
If the story I am reading is correct, the rationale for this move is solely so the Ravens have a chance to practice first.

They didn’t accommodate the Broncos when they didn’t have any QB’s. How in the world do you justify making accommodations for the Ravens? They created this mess. [emoji35][emoji35][emoji35]

Move it to Tursday and play three games in 11 days?

Well, they've got a lot of rest right now. they haven't played a game since last Sun. if they play Wed, they will have 9 days off. plus they did nothing Thur, Fri, Sat and had a practice Sun afternoon. I think the Steelers will be fine.
 
Here's the rub. If we allow a forfeit, the undefeated season becomes an asterisk. Awarding a win that wasn't earned. Sure it follows the rule of the league, but that asterisk will be there.

Also The Ravens Dallas game was already moved to Monday, so this means there will be 3 games on MNF? Just push us to Tuesday and at least give us a mild advantage.

This is what I'm gathering as well. The Ravens players didn't want to play tomorrow, but there were also no new positive tests today that would've impacted the game being played on Tuesday. It should've went on as scheduled.

The Steelers have bigger fish to fry than an undefeated season. An undefeated postseason is what matters.

The Steelers practiced last week. Those aren't days off.

NFL needs to come down HARD on the Ravens. They cannot allow another in-house outbreak like Baltimore just had. It's been a complete circus.

Cope, I would think they will come out with the Raven/Dallas game moving to Tues night. so Fox will still have a Primetime game

Always happens when you have a Thu game. Would have been Sun, Sun, Thu if we played on Thanks which is the standard 3 games in 11 days for thursday players. We just get it a little later.

Kick the **** out of them early and put the scrubs in for the 4th qtr.

This team has to actually get a good lead to do this.
 
Big Ben Rules said:
Yep, that exactly what I would do if I was the NFL. They have an open spot on Thur night.

I'm wondering if any team has ever played three games in 11 days, the pounding these guys take regardless of the rest before the first of three is played. I don't understand your reasoning for promoting this, for the players' sake I hope it never happens to any team.

Ok, so playing three games in 11 days does happen but two of those games are on short rest

I'm done not arguing with you about it no more. Go Steelers! kick there ******* ***!
