NFL

I want Saturday games tbh

Forever a fan of giving teams enough days between games. Do that, and schedule them whenever you want.

But stop giving teams 3-4 days' rest between games.

primetime games no longer feel special

The more days we have games, the better (within reason).

But, the selection of primetime games this season has been terrible, and it's abundantly clear the NFL does not give a flying fuck about the quality of product they provide to the very same people who make them money, they only care about ratings.

The Giants, Jets, Raiders, Steelers, etc., have zero business having as many primetime games as they do.

I like it, however the matchups leave a lot to be desired. Football in general has been pretty lackluster the last few years though honestly

I don't like it. I love football but I don't live and die for football, I like watching other sports and I like watching other TV shows. I don't want the NFL every night of the week, I have a life outside of DraftKings and my fantasy team.

I think in the long term it could eventually hurt the NFL. I think the NFL became a juggernaut because of all the casual fans that other sports couldn't get. Think of all the people at your work, church, PTA, your neighborhood, who couldn't name a single NBA player outside of LeBron but somehow are in a fantasy football league every year. I think a huge part of of that is accessibility, if you wanna follow the NFL without being a hardcore fan (whether to follow your local team or to do fantasy football) you have to pay attention on Sunday with the occasional Monday or Thursday throughout the season. The NBA, MLB, and NHL don't have that, you gotta check in all the time sometimes 3+ times a week (or every night in the case of the MLB) in order to keep up, casual people don't want that. So by making it a 6 nights a week thing you're gonna make it harder for those people to follow and over time it will start to push them away from the sport.

But it doesn't matter. Amazon and Apple own us, they'll own the NFL and every entertainment option we have. They're gonna push to own every night of the week using NFL games and they have the money to do it.

I'm loving the 9:30 AM games. It's great being able to start right off, especially if I'm tailgating for a standard 1:00 game.

Today's game would have been great if the Jets had an offense. I don't think the problem was the time slot, the problem was Rodger's Achilles.

On Saturdays I get to listen to college games at work on my headphones (although not a huge CFB fan).

Today!, however, not only did I listen to NFL football at work, but Dolphins football at work! More afternoon non-Sunday games!

The Sunday morning and Thursday games need to go. Sunday is too early (730am here) and Thursdays are bad for the teams, not to mention being on a paid service. Screw that.

Every Jets game pretty much falls flat this season. The Jets playing with their 3rd string QB vs one of the best teams in the AFC? WOOF

More games and more spread out the better. I'm in a non-US time zone, so I'd happily just have two games a day, each day of the week. I don't care what time they are because its all watched on delayed stream.

Being in Australia, I don't really have much of a comment on the Europe games; outside of being committed to watching the Chiefs this year, I don't want any of them in order to be up for the 1pm games.

But the Black Friday game this morning was nice. A bad game, but still having a game on a Saturday morning while nursing a hangover was welcomed. I'd put your feeling down to being new and different, it's always going to be inherently disruptive at first. Even the existence of the game is tied to Amazon, the fact we'll get it until 2033 is enough to make it feel like it has a natural place in the scheduling.

It's almost as if the NFL is seeking another day of the week to hold primetime games in case MLS hooks enough young Americans raised on playing soccer into watching professional "futball" instead of football on Sundays.

Personally not a fan at all. Don’t even like TNF, might change my mind if they change it so only teams coming off a bye can play TNF but the NFL obviously won’t do that. It’s just clear the coaches don’t have enough time to game plan and the players don’t have enough time to recover, so the quality of the games suffer.

The international games annoy me because I’ve been burned more than once with a game time scratch and I don’t want to have to get up at 0630 to check my fantasy roster, but obviously tapping the international market is probably way more valuable than catering to fantasy football players on the west coast. I do wonder if the travel has an impact on the quality of the games, but I doubt it’s anywhere near the impact of the short rest of TNF.

Saturday games don’t bother me when college football isn’t going.

you lost me at pats fan. Google goodell bilicheck destroying tapes. You have 0 opinion in the NFL world if you supported anything to do with the pats.

F*ck non traditional scheduling.

Sunday and Monday.

No Thursday football or special Black Friday games.

If you live on the west coast, there’s always been Sunday morning games

Gotta remember they expected a big game between a good Miami team and Rodgers led new york team. Game probably would've been significantly different.

Otherwise I don't necessarily mind, especially at this point in the season with cfb winding down.

I didn't even watch that game yesterday between it being at an awful time and the teams playing good luck getting people to watch that.

I love football in more time slots. I say keep it the way it is. Nothing like having football on while sipping my coffee

It's bad football, it's always bad football.

I hate it but Thursday night football is still the biggest draw on Thursday nights.

That slide started for me when the Draft went to Prime Time. Weekend Draft Day parties were magnificent.
