OT-Time To Ditch Thursday Night Football

[NJCardFan]

These have been the scores this season:

36-16
26-6
56-14
45-14
42-10

Mindnumbingly boring blowouts. I'm curious of the ratings for tonight game because the Royals and Angels have a real nailbiter going on in the ALDS.

Thursday night football sucks. Only hardcore fans even give a **** and the games are crap every time.

No way love it!!

Plus, 4 of the 5 blowouts have been by the home team. It's a huge advantage.

I love it too but maybe they need to start TNF week 4 and schedule the games after the two teams bye week. 3 days rest apparently takes its toll.

I agree. It makes much more sense. This week's game could have been the Cards/Broncos.

 

[Darkside]

That's a valid point.

They're all Division games.

I haven't watched a full game yet, I haven't even made it to half time on any games

Crappy football is better than no football.

 

[AZCrazy]

No, it isn't. Diluting the product and overexposing everything doesn't make fans happy. The douche commissioner and douche owners will try over time to have football on every day of the week. I can't think of a better way to make everyone shrug and say To Hell With It. They want every minute of my time, every fiber in my brain, and every cent in my wallet. I just want a little weekend diversion watching the Cards for a couple hours.

I don't mind it this year cause it gives us more time to prepare for Seattle.

The ONLY thrusday night game I have ever watched and will ever watch is the Cardinals games.....And I only watch those because I am a Cardinals fan but wish they wouldn't do it.

I HATE weekday games. It is too hard to get to the stadium. I usually end up taking the day off work to make it happen.

In this hard hitting league most if not all players can't go in a short week. It's a stupid day to hold a NFL game. Sunday play, Monday in. Tuesday off. Wednesday fly. Thursday play. Something like that. Playing at home no real advantage as the players don't get that extra couple of days needed to mend.
Hate it never watch feel cheated.

I like Thursday night football. And, I'm optimistic there will be some better pairings down the line. Besides, with all the junk on TV, how could a football fan not like the football channel on Thursday.

I flipped through channels once is was 28-0 nothing and noticed everything else on TV was garbage so I went back to watching the game.

Maybe you should look at the ratings. Having a game to watch on Thursday night makes fans very happy.

Great, just watch the games on Sunday then and ignore everything else, problem solved.

Yep. I believe it even out does MNF

UofA / Oregon was on so I switched to that.

And the Royals game was pretty good too. Of course, I had to fight my wife for the remote, what with the Shonda shows on ABC all night...

 

[RedViper]

Almost every TNF game is trash. Last year wasn't any different. I look forward to these games every week but they are almost never worth the time I spend watching them. The truth hurts.

 

[Chris_Sanders]

I love it. Breaks up the work week perfectly.
