Basically, the Ravens now have to consider "will this game ever be played? If not, then we can't win the division, so we may as well rest Jackson for the playoffs." But if they do that, and then the Bengals are later told that they'll play the Bills in "week 19" and the playoffs are pushed back a week, imagine how the Ravens would feel if the Bengals end up losing.

The NFL is intentionally not making the hard decision and are instead doing nothing and just hoping no one has a problem with it. That rarely works out.

Anyone who's ever worked for a bad manager is familiar with this situation.

NFL stands to lose a lot of money on this contest not being played.  I doubt it was an easy decision to call this.  But likely the right one
