Ravens-Steelers Game Moved To Wednesday Night

Post by Greg Ambrosius » Mon Nov 30, 2020 4:40 pm

The NFL officially moved the Baltimore-Pittsburgh game to Wednesday night and that move now will have a ripple effect in NFFC leagues. Here's how that move affects the NFFC:

** If played on Wednesday night, those stats would still be counted for Week 12. The game that was moved from Thursday night to Sunday afternoon to Tuesday night to Wednesday night is still technically in Week 12 and all of those stats will still be included with this week's other games.

** If played on Wednesday night, the NFFC will move Week 13's FAAB deadline to Thursday at 10 pm ET. If the game is forfeited or canceled outright, FAAB will remain on Wednesday at 10 pm ET. We should know more in the next day, but plan accordingly.

FAAB needs to move back a day if this game is played on Wednesday night because our tie-breaker process for winning bids is h2h record from the previous week. We need to know the h2h records of every team through Week 12 to break these tied bids. Also, all Guillotine Leagues need to know which team was "cut" from Week 12 so that they can bid on all of those players from that team's roster. Guillotine FAAB can't run before a week is final.

This game will still count in the Turkey Day Bonanza as well and we'll name a winner of that $5,000 grand prize after Wednesday's game. Yes, it's six days later than originally planned, but it still closes out the third game in that slate.

It looks like two other games have been moved to Monday night, giving us three Monday Night games for Week 13. Plan accordingly and hopefully the NFL can push through this next week and through the rest of the season. Thanks all and good luck.

Sounds like a good plan Greg. I think this is the most fair solution. I couldn't imagine having two games to draw from in a given week. That just couldn't happen.

Yes please do the waivers Thursday night!!!!!!!!! I just seen the email. This is the best for everyone since no game on Thursday we could use an extra day to gather ourselves in a rough week with this being the final week of waivers.

This is going to be a pretty rough year to have no waivers for the final 3 weeks with covid and schedule changes we just can't carry enough players.

This has to be a 3 QB year, 3 TE year and a 2 K year and do you carry 2 DFs knowing a game can get wiped out. Does not leave much room for RB and WR's especially WR's when you have to start 3.

A 22 man roster would have been idea for the final 4 weeks since no one can do any more waivers.
