  • Moving game times

    I see two good NFL games this upcoming weekend, Packers @ San Fran, Minnesota @ Denver. Both late afternoon games on FOX, so only get to watch 1.

    Just a lot of turkey matchups, altho maybe I'm missing something.

    When can the NFL shuffle games? Sure would be nice to swap out that Dallas-New Orleans Sunday night game.

    Last six weeks of the season. NFL does change start times then as well.
    Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.

      Just curious, can anybody spot a game on this week's schedule that you want to watch other than a late afternoon Sunday game?
      Maybe there are just a lot of bad teams in NFL so far.

        The early games here on Sunday are, Carolina @ Tampa Bay (FOX) and Jacksonville @ Indianapolis (CBS). That's about as bad as it can get. We do get the Packers for the late game.

          You're in Florida though. Don't get crap games on a weekly basis?

            Yep Harv. In the 90s, it was enough to push me to studying. Instead of watching the Falcons or Saints.

              I have a hunch the Baltimore-Pittsburgh game tonight will be a real dogfight.

              The Sunday morning Jets-Miami game could be OK just because.

                Yes, stuck with Tampa and/or Jax nearly every week. The good news is we've had a large number of Packer games the last few years. Off to a good start this year as the Bears game (week 1) was on and so is this weeks game. The streak will probably end next week as Tampa and GB play at the same time. Chargers at GB in week 6 at 4:25 will almost certainly be on here. That will give me 5 out of the first 6. Not sure how it shapes up after that.

                  I agree, I'm expecting a 23-20 in overtime type game.

                    Yes, it sucks that all 3 FL teams stink this year. We don't usually get Jax games but we do get all the Tampa and Miami games.

                      Tampa and GB play at the same time next week? Oh well, off to the Packer bar we go.

                        The KC-CIN game has some potential, and maybe the NYG-BUF game as well. Honestly the late games aren't great match-ups either, but the Packers are playing and that trumps everything else.

                          Kaepernick has had PAcker's number in San Fran, this is not a gimme.

                          Minnesota-Denver not a great match-up!? Hard to see more compelling matchup.

                          Also, I'm anxious to watch any Arizona game.

                          NFL apparently accommodates networks by placing better games late afternoon, ratings must be prime. That sucks for obvious reasons - only one good game televised regionally. Well, also the West Coast teams can't play early game, that already biases everything later.

                          I guess the super fans can buy some sort NFL package and record any game they want.

                            How many games will it take for Manning to prove that he's done?
                            No longer the member of any fan clubs. I'm tired of jinxing players out of the league and into obscurity.
