    Game for Monday night has been "postponed".

    What an awkward situation. Hurricanes suck, for a host of reasons.

    Ike damages Texans' stadium, Monday's game iffy
    Associated Press


    HOUSTON -- Damage caused by Hurricane Ike will likely lead to the postponement of Monday night's NFL game at Reliant Stadium between the visiting Baltimore Ravens and the Houston Texans.

    The storm tore chunks off the stadium's retractable roof and the damage can't be fixed in time to host the game, said Shea Guinn, the president and general manager of Reliant Park.

    "There is no way this stadium will host a game on Monday night," Guinn said Saturday. "There are parts of the roof that are completely gone."

    An official announcement was expected later Saturday, NFL spokesman Greg Aiello said.

    "It certainly appears that the stadium is not going to be able to be used on Monday night," Aiello said.

    The game, originally scheduled for Sunday, was moved to Monday earlier in the week as Ike approached the area.

    The field is not scheduled to host another game until Oct. 5. If the game is postponed, it is unclear when it could be made up. The Texans' off week is Oct. 26, while Baltimore's is Nov. 6.

    Three years ago, when the New Orleans Saints were displaced because of Hurricane Katrina, they played four of their scheduled home games at LSU's Tiger Stadium, three in San Antonio and one in East Rutherford, N.J., against the New York Giants.

    PFT got to the bottom of that:

    POSTPONEMENT OF RAVENS-TEXANS CONFIRMED
    Posted by Mike Florio on September 13, 2008, 6:50 p.m.
    The Ravens, the Texans, and the NFL have announced that, as reported, the Week Two game between the Ravens and Texans has been moved to November 9.

    As a result of the rescheduling, the Ravens will play three straight road games (November 2, 9, and 16), and will play five out of six games away from home from October 12 through November 16.

    Meanwhile, a reader has asked us to explain the impact of the postponement on fantasy stats.

    Um, well, because the Ravens and Texans won’t play this weekend, the players on their teams won’t play, either, and they’ll score zero points if you choose to insert them into your lineup.
