Around the NFL - 2016

[BigEd76]

Panthers/Broncos is the Thursday opener
Patriots/Cardinals is the SNF opener
Steelers/Skins is the early MNF in week 1
Giants/Cowboys in week 1 again
Giants/Vikings on MNF in week 4
Vikings/Lions is the early Thanksgiving game (and Skins/Cowboys is rumored but not confirmed)

some random thoughts

-nfl trying to hide LA at home as much as it can. both primetime games are on the road. their "home" national game is in london. their home opener is a 400 off brand jawn that will go to like 5 markets. obviously scared of how they will look in a huge, likely not full stadium.

-11/15 cowboys games are national. not counting week 17 because nothing is set for that. thats madness. patriots have 9, most of the other good teams have 7 or 8. that means they have a grand total of four (4) 100 games. rome! i see you.

-for the 100th year in a row jacksonville and tenny are playing each other in their only national tv game on nfln. its always the twitter joke event of the year.

-when the matchups dropped i tallied the top 20 matchups. 12 were fox games, 8 were cbs. fox kept 6/12, cbs kept 5/8. nbc got the other 9.

-nfl taking over your life in week 16: thursday dec 22 (eagles) 830, saturday dec 24 100-430-730; sunday dec 25 430-730; monday dec 26 830. utter and complete domination of the weekend and the country. nba should cease to exist.

-the only flex i see is week 11 (gb/dc). otherwise things are looking good unless a qb gets injured.

Your logic is flawed again.
