Ruby2 Posted September 25, 2020 Share Posted September 25, 2020 I cant think of a dumber decision over the past 10 years the NFL has made other than Thursday Night Football. They seriously need to get rid of it. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Week 3, Miami at Jacksonville, 2 more lowly teams but so far so good, entertaining. Next Thursday? Denver at Jets? Will set Thursday Night Football back to the dark ages. I bet the NFL WISHES,, it could flex out Thursday night games. Jets a serious joke and League Liability.

The Jets, with rare exception, make sure to truly embarrass us when they play in the spotlight on the National Stage. Looking at Weeks 1 & 2, I see nothing as yet that would make me think they will not embarrass us on Thursday Night. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

heymangold Posted September 25, 2020 Share Posted September 25, 2020 Denver has a good team - Gordon at RB, Fant at TE, Jeudy at WR. their defense is pretty good too. i think being its a thursday nighter there is a chance to squeak a win out but it'll be tough. could be the 1 win in our 1-15 season.

They seriously need to get rid of it. I don't mind the game itself, but no NFL team should ever play on 4 days rest. It waters the game down with teams sitting players who would otherwise suit up on a Sunday. The league needs to add a 2nd bye week for each team and ensure that a bye always comes for teams the week before they play on Thursday. 2 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChuckkieB Posted September 25, 2020 Share Posted September 25, 2020 Another embarrassing loss in front of a national audience to bring the team to 0-4 could seal Gase's fate. Even morons like the Johnson's can only take so much egg on their face before they are forced to act. That and the fact that Gase as HC would hurt them in their wallet, which we all know they care a lot about. Can't sell this chump to the fanbase in 2021. Might as well see if their franchise QB responds to someone else now. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then they have 1-1/2 weeks before and after the Thursday night game. Would need a second bye week for each team, but that's easily do-able. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My guess is its a CBA stance where the players don't want to extend the season any more w/o further compensation. If they eliminate the PS games forever or cut them back to 2 ,your suggestion may fall into place. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know some people have been pushing for 2 bye weeks for a while, especially when the league wants to expand international play. Going from the west coast to the east coast on a week schedule is bad enough; going from the west coast to Europe has got to be a killer. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah if they ever expand into Europe it will create a whole new scheduling nightmare for 31 teams , as we all know Kraft and the Pats will get preferential scheduling.

I think the NFL's inability to get an extra game or 2 tacked onto the regular season (at least not yet) is what is preventing the 2nd bye from happening. Once that extra game or 2 is added to the schedule and the finances are worked out, I'm sure the 2nd bye will happen then. Hopefully they're smart enough to use them for the week prior to the Thursday night games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Panzer Division Marduk Posted September 28, 2020 Share Posted September 28, 2020 I wouldn't be surprised if the NFL top brass are currently trying to figure out how to manufacture a load of fake failed Covid tests for both teams, so they can call off the game and then play it later, at a time and date when nobody would be watching.
