    Didn't realize there were so many QBs likely to be on the move.  Just like last season.

     

    It's nice for once not to be shopping for a QB.

    Very well said. After the turmoil of the last few years, it's nice that the Bills now have three QBs under contract.  I have to wonder when was the last time we could say that in January.

    Having games on Monday and Thursday added to their schedule and increased TV money by adding more games to a nationally televised schedule.

    For the NFL it could cost them broadcasting money from advertisers cause a typical Saturday gives the non football fans plenty of other options of things to do.

    The biggest hit would come from Bars and restaurants who now will have an already busy day become a bit busier and lose the extra days revenue as they go back to having a dead Sunday night. If your a bar or Restaurant Owner, you probably want one of your busiest and profitable days (Saturday) to stay as is and get an extra busy day on Sunday to increase revenue for that time.

     

    As for productivity, is it any worse then say 'Cyber monday' for lost productivity? I thought that was determined to be one of the least productive days of the year. Should it become a National Holiday too?

    All good points, but I'm guessing that the vast majority of people do not watch the Super Bowl in a restaurant or bar.  In fact, I don't know anyone that does.  Most people watch at someone's house and have turned the game into a huge pot-luck binge eating fest.

  3. I've read a ton of comments on here over the years and I have to say that Super Bowl Saturday actually makes a ton of sense.  It costs nothing but solves a rather large loss of productivity challenge for millions of employees, employers and schools.  Think about it, it wasn't that long ago when there was no Thursday night football, and or even Monday night for that matter. 

    Get it done Mr. Commissioner!

    All the guy did was some evaluations of the top WR's, there are plenty of other threads discussing O-line, and who should be taken where.

     

    Why not just let this discussion develop without shouting in about the O-line?

    Or we could have a thread about middle round receivers and focus on the O Line in round one and two.

    The NFL ratings are up because those patriots who were turned off by the player's anthem protests in 2017 wandered back in because there were no visible anthem protests in 2018 except a very small minority... and those were not put on TV screens  front and center. The NFL did a good job of minimizing its effects. If the anthem protests start up again in 2019, I can guarantee that those patriots who left last year to cause a deep dip in the ratings will leave again and maybe this time for good.

    Correct! I wouldn’t have initially agreed with this take but after talking with quite a few random fans I found it to true. Both old and young were really turned off by the kneeling.

    The Bills could sign a few FA's on the OL which makes the Williams pick mute. That's my point.

    Thanks. I’m in the camp that they better pay major attention to the O Line this offseason. The running game was nothing short of brutal this year! Allen’s scrambles masked a huge problem.
