NFL will play 2 games on Christmas-day which is on a Wednesday this year.

There isn’t a single change that’s been made under the current Commissioner that I’ve agreed with. And that streak continues with this one.

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.

Sounds like the MAC

I used to enjoy going to the Christmas eve games. Saw a very drunk Santa tell a young Titans fan he wasn't going to his house. If they had a home game on Christmas day, very unlikely I would attend

Hey, why don’t we do this in Cambodia? That would be cool. 

Funny you should mention that, the other day i saw something about Cambodia being a hot new retirement haven, I'll have to check it out.

Thinking of all the employees that will have to spend xmas at a game...working. Used to work in sports for 7+ years and that's the #1 reason I saw my way out. Needless to say I would not attend.

Asking for cash on Christmas so I can immediately gamble it on these games. I need to help the economy.

In another scheduling move the NFL is deciding if it will be the Browns or Packers going to Brazil to play the Eagles.

Don't care about Christmas games. Just think football on a Wednesday is stupid.

[Chicharito]

I hope it’s a home game for us. That would be the cats A$$

[RobbRiddick]

Cool, so is it not too early to watch Jingle All The Way today?

[sullim4]

My hope would be that these are non-divisional games between opponents that are located close to one another.  Think PIT/CLE@BUF or BAL@NYJ.

[rusty shackleford]

This should steal away some viewership from the yule log channel.

[Taro Nimbus]

This is a great spot to put the Bills Chiefs game.  

[BillsPride12]

Crock of S*** but I'm not surprised.  The NFL is continuing to trend in a direction where they are going to lose me as a fan.

expect the opponents to come out of the Amazon Thursday game and a preselected game for early Saturday game then they trade partners to play on Xmas.  The other two Saturday games would come out of Sunday schedule flexing thrm.

 

other option is two teams come out of a bye.

 

for example….. bills vs fins on thursday, rams vs Seahawks on Saturday set for 430 pm. They flex a 130 and 8 pm gsme.

then it’s bills/fins at Seahawks/ rams for Xmas at 3 pm and 630 pm.  Bills snd fins both are on the road at rams snd seahawks.

 

or afc north vs nfc east this year so you could have 

 

some combo  thurs/ sst pairs playing on Wednesday 

One week it’s balt vs eagles and pit vs Dallas then other week it’s  pit- balt and Phil- dal

pits more Xmas Eve evening/ Xmas morning is the period.

 

I see Xmas games occurring at 3-430 pm and 630-800  pm as their start time slots.

[Einstein's Dog]

I'm hoping Bills at Miami.  I'd go.  And the weather should be great.

[Gregg]

This is BS. Is the NFL trying to lose fans.

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

Cry me a river. Stop watching, then.

 

They are a business. They prioritize making money and providing a product that people want. There is rabid demand for their product.

 

The constant butt-hurt attacks by "fans" like you are really getting nauseating. Go choose another form of entertainment, because you clearly don't like this one.

[Donuts and Doritos]

Greedy, Greedy, Greedy, Greedy... GREEDY!
