Seahawks/Jags in blue. Completely regional audience.

Meanwhile, the NFL also "demoted" Cowboys/Giants to the noon slot. That game will now air in 75 percent of the country.



Cowboys/Giants in red.

Meanwhile, NBC did not flex out of their Steelers/Ravens game. The Steelers will play in primetime for the 4th time in the last 5 weeks.

Pitt / Aaron Rodgers / NFC East / NE

Genuinely curious when we had a SNF game that didn’t involve the above. Not trying to be a smartass, I’m just curious and don’t feel like searching myself

Why would NBC flex out of maybe the best rivalry in the NFL where one team has a shot at the 1 seed and the other is currently holding the last wildcard spot?

I agree that all the other moves are beyond awful. Especially as a Jags fan in AL.

Can you just buy NFL Sunday ticket so you can stop crying every week?

The AFC west has had a few primtime slots the last three years.

Meh the Eagles aren't that great. The Rams should dominate them

+1

You'd figure after years of bitching about NFL scheduling, he would have figured out that there is a way to watch every game you want.

Why should the cowgirls and giants be in a prime time slot? They’re both horrible

yes but at the same time, this is a large problem with their ratings or general apathy towards their product

"well the cowboys are a big draw and no one knows the Jags players or that they're actually good this year"

yeah well maybe if SNF wasn't a glorified prime time slot for the NFC East or steelers, you could introduce some of these audiences to the better teams.

Their dated TV policies are their own worst enemy

Once again, the NFL fails to put the most pleasing product on the market. And yet people have to argue that kneeling is making am impact.

I don't want to hear you bitching whenever that one guy goes into an NBA thread and tells everyone how shitty the NBA is and everything like always happens
