mushypeaches Posted March 26 Posted March 26 At this point, no one should be surprised by the combined greed of the Shield coinciding with their complete disregard for player safety or the fans 1 7 1 Quote

BILLS55 Posted March 26 Posted March 26 First paragraph of the article states the teams will have played the previous Saturday giving them 4 days rest. It's the same as playing a Thursday night game, following a Sunday. 1 Quote
uticaclub Posted March 26 Posted March 26 (edited) It would be nice to have something other than NBA playing in the background at home. It might be fun to schedule a family tailgate, setup a tree, decorate it with beer and soda cans & then set it on fire while you eat your Christmas dinner before you walk in the stadium.

NoHuddleKelly12 Posted March 26 Posted March 26 Not cool, imho. For those of us with young-ish kids (and lots of relatives who don’t watch football), this feels like a trampling on what is supposed to be a special day set aside to focus on what matters most “in real life.” Hopefully it’s not us! 1 1 4 Quote
CowgirlsFan Posted March 26 Posted March 26 Terrible just Terrible. This leaves no time for the teams involved to have any form of Christmas with their families 5 4 Quote
ddaryl Posted March 26 Posted March 26 I agree with the consensus... This is just stupid. No need for Christmas games heck I think the NFL should shelve Thanksgiving games also. Time for the family for players and fans 3 Quote

That sounds unlikely - so they're moving bye weeks to be that late in the season just to accommodate Christmas Day games? Quote
frostbitmic Posted March 26 Posted March 26 They should go full out money making mode and have a couple of games on Tuesday, Christmas Eve as well. There's already Monday and Thursday night games. They could add a Friday night game and play everyday of the week. 2 Quote

Once college football season ends then the NFL schedules games on Saturday's. I would guess the teams that play Saturday Dec 14th will play on Dec 25th instead of Sunday Dec 22th. 1 Quote
Doc Brown Posted March 26 Posted March 26 I like it. I want football seven days a week. All in Prime Time on a million different streaming services just so the whining goes to an all time high but the NFL will still pull in massive profits because we will still watch. 1 1 2 2 Quote
That's No Moon Posted March 26 Posted March 26 Looking forward to those games being on Peabrain or Bezos-1 or something so you get the Christmas gift of paying extra on top of the extra you already pay 1 Quote
Augie Posted March 26 Posted March 26 Hey, why don’t we do this in Cambodia? That would be cool. 1 1 Quote
