That is impressive. Need to get more production the TE's as the weather gets bad. Especially when the run game is spinning its wheels.

Well Claypool is a receiver big target plus Conner will come out of it he's on track for a 1000 yards on the ground.

This could be kind of a curious situation. The Pittsburgh Steelers might have a problem brewing and just may be trying to head it off. According to the official transaction report, the Steelers have worked out three players and all of them are the core of special teams. The Steelers have worked out punter Brandon Wright, kicker Matthew Wright and linebacker/long snapper Christian Kuntz. Let's hope this is not the next wave of covid-19 protocol concerns. It would make perfect sense if one of the Steelers three core special team players tested positive or had to be quarantined, the other two would be right there as well.

The Pittsburgh Steelers Friday injury report looks fairly clean, with only running backs Trey Edmunds, Jaylen Samuels and linebacker Jayrone Elliott ruled out for Sunday. Edmunds (hamstring) and Samuels (quad) were both injured versus the Bengals. Steelers head coach Mike Tomlin indicated on Tuesday that the back's availability would be dependent on practice participation, and neither player took part all week. Elliott (Illness) also has not been at practice this week. As anticipated, cornerback Mike Hilton will be back in action. He was a full practice participant all week after exiting with a shoulder injury in the second quarter of Week-6.

The Steelers kept it closer than the wanted for a period of time. From the end of the second quarter on just wore them out. This is the big game with the Ravens. As the Ravens need to save their season. With the NFL figuring out how to deal. Jackson's senior year at Louisville was mot that great as teams figured out more how to defense his skills. As the NFL seems to have done. Losing Stanley at OT really hurts the offense. This game looks like another bad weather game. Turnovers and injuries for both sides can be a big part of the game.

Some believed that the Steelers paid too steep of a price for Minkah Fitzpatrick. since he arrived, he is 2nd in the NFL in interceptions (9) and turnovers (12). The Steelers rank 1st in points and yards allowed. Minkah counts a total of 5.78 million against the cap over three years. It was a very good bargain. On Sunday, Steelers safety Minkah Fitzpatrick intercepted two passes to help the Steelers beat the Jacksonville Jaguars 27-3.

Steelers shouldn't have any problem now with Dobbins and Ingram out. Jackson really has a load on his shoulders now as the Steelers can just pin their ears back and come after him. Steelers should win by a couple tds easy.

The Steelers have placed running back Trey Edmunds on injury reserve. Edmunds injured a hamstring against the Bengals in Week-10. Edmunds, who was signed to the roster October 10th, missed last week's game against the Jaguars. Edmunds will be eligible to return after missing three games.

The return of multiple additional positive Covid-19 tests on Thanksgiving night has thrust the Ravens into even more turmoil. It also has created significant confusion regarding the status of Sunday's scheduled game against the Steelers. Per a league source with direct knowledge of the situation, decisions have not been made regarding whether the game will proceed on Sunday and, if not, when will it happen ? A decision, as of Wednesday, was expected to be made on Friday. There's an increasing belief within the Baltimore organization that the game cannot proceed as scheduled. Whether it's moved to Monday or Tuesday or it's shifted to an eighteenth week or the Ravens forfeit (unlikely, but possible) isn't known. Whether the game will proceed on Sunday won't be determined again, until Friday.

The Raven's are to play the Cowboys next on Thursday. So that will be part of the decision. Now with QB Jackson out.

The anticipated Pittsburgh Steelers versus Baltimore Ravens matchup will have to wait a few more days as the NFL moved it back to Tuesday. The game was initially scheduled as the primetime matchup on Thanksgiving night, but was pushed to Sunday due to positive Covid-19 tests on the Ravens. The Ravens had four consecutive days of positive tests. It will now be played on Tuesday at 8 P.M., which creates futher scheduling issues for the NFL next week.

While the Baltimore Ravens are certainly the big story right now, they're far from being the only team dealing with Covid-19. On a day in which the Ravens vs Steelers game was once again rescheduled, the Steelers placed three players of their own on the Reserve/Covid-19 list. Pittsburgh placed defensive ends Isaiah Buggs and Stephon Tuitt, and offensive lineman Jerald Hawkins on the Reserve/Covid-19 list Friday. Baltimore also added four players to it's Reserve/Covid-19 list, including QB Lamar Jackson. Players that test positive for Covid-19 are held out a minimum of 10 days, while those labeled as a "close contact" would be out for a minimum of five days.

Pittsburgh Steelers running back James Conner was placed on the Covid-19/reserve list Saturday. Conner who battled Hodgkin's Lymphoma while in college, will not play during the Steelers Week-12 game against the Baltimore Ravens. The Steelers did not say whether or not Conner tested positive for Covid-19. Players do not have to test positive to be placed on the Covid-19/reserve list. The list can be used if a player comes in close contact with a person who has tested positive for the coronavirus.
