[Bob-Lillys-War]

and yet the entire reason for the shuffle was to not have the ravens have to play on a short week yet the DC and the PB steelers are forced too , who has the C issues and caused a lot fo the issues now have the advantage. The NFL did everything they could to stretch this out so they could get back LJ and the ravens stars more of the year and it looked bad as other teams played undermanned..

Primetime to see our 3rd strings team take on the ravens..right..it was to get the ravens superstars back

hint we have no star power right now no dak 3rd string OL and a team ravaged with injuires..id rather we played 6 straight noon games on Sunday and out this year to death..

ok you do realize the nfl is the 32 owners right?? lol
Why would they play favorites with any one team?
Why would ravens get preferential treatment? which it does seem that way.
And Broncos did get crapped on.

But it is about pleasing the tv networks, who give the nfl owners billions of dollars, the networks are their real customers, and they will do whatever
to keep them happy.
So do you think fox wants to air cowboys and ravens early monday with no lamar, or would they rather go forward to tue, and have lamar and primetime game?
That is all about making fox happy so they can make more money off the better ratings and time slot.
It has nothing to do with the teams.

The nfl also doesnt want to air a game where half a team and its coaches are all gone due to the big c, they are trying to make things look ok and normal.
So they will delay the games until things look better.
They dont care what is fair, or who wins these games, they care about image and money and keeping networks happy.

the nfl blew this one they coddled to team that caused the issues let Denver and earlier in the season the titans play shorthanded yet the ravens and Steelers get pushed and caged so much we have to play 2 games in 5 days but the ravens couldn't?

they should have told ravens send your best for the kickoff you are playig like the rest or forfeilt and its a L, shorthanded, instead the ravens threatened to not show up and forced RG to make this crazy shuffling that hurt every one but ravens who began this mess being irresponsible ..ughh

horrible shuffling that ended badly..

Yes, they should have been told bring your best 53, or you lose.

Is this the longest time between regular season games for the Cowboys?

 

[Aviano90]

Is this the longest time between regular season games for the Cowboys?

"RG3 to Dez! Touchdown Ravens!"

Baltimore wins by a lot. (I know, Lamar will be back.)

What a bunch of crap. Didn't the NFL make a preseason statement about how Covid issues where not going to be an excuse for teams to manipulate the schedule?

Broncos got crapped on because they don't have an owner to stand up for them. The team is owned by a trust fund since Bowlen died.
