Commence meltdown.

I will say if the Steelers have any more to complain about this, especially after we've lost our star QB for the next two(?) games, they have lost their skulls.

obviously the even bigger point here is that he will be missing TNF against the Cowboys too

a big clash the NFL thought preseason but both teams will be basically playing practice squads and missing their star QBs lol
I thought there was a 5 day window?

it’s longer than that ?

if they keep complaining i say we put Marlon in at corner only on juju and bully juju and just bear hug him every single snap - who cares about penalties lol - teach him to stop running his mouth

At this point, what's Ryan Mallett doing these days? I can't see us beating Dallas without Lamar either, this is some BS.

5 days for close contact tracing but 10 days minimum for anyone who actually tests positive - right now everyone except brandon williams is a positive test so out for minimum 10 days - JK and Ingram are lucky enough with the timing that they might be able to be back for Dallas and potentially mcphee too (that might be touch and go though)

everyone else is 100% out for the cowboys game

Steelers game is getting canceled , that’s a positive for us. They won’t be playing starters in week 18.

We can absolutely beat the cowboys without Lamar. They are absolute garbage

And now reports that 4 more players tested positive today

Just make us forfeit. It’s appropriate. One guy messed up and it’s on us.

the problem is if the league do that then the ravens probably have a great case for litigating - the titans breaches were clearly systemic (not one idiot) and then they continued to disregard those rules and they were not forced to forfeit

the ravens would be able to argue that the league did not treat them in line with the precedent they set with the titans early in the year - it doesnt matter that it's less convenient to postpone at this point in the season - they made this bed with the lack of schedule flexibility and by not punishing the titans with a forfeit

forfeit seems like the logical option but for the NFL it would be a nuclear option unless the ravens basically agree to it (which is unlikely)
