Honestly, I’ve never liked Thursday night games win or lose. Having only 3-4 days of rest, recuperation and preparation just isn’t good on any level. It’s one of the many greed moves that bothers me.
It feels like a Monday, but we are about to go into a weekend. At least we should have the bad taste out of our mouths before an NFL football game should be played on Sunday. Thursday night NFL football blows, but we know why they do it.
I missed a game live earlier this season because my grandson (also a Bills fan) got baptized that day and there was a lunch that followed 2 hours from home. He was watching the game on his phone at the lunch, and I never went back to watch it. I would have had a much harder time with that years ago, but I’m much better now.
I’m honestly surprised that we don’t see this more. Anything along the sideline you just try to carry him OB. Changing that rule took away one of those gray area calls, and defenses should take more advantage of it, imo. Well played, Cole!
