    I believe there is also a limit as to how many prime time games any team can be scheduled for.   Keep in mind to, there are some late season Saturday games  with teams listed as TBD  for now.  Likely will get one 4:05 non doubleheader game, plus could also be flexed into another game.   Rumors about them playing in Europe too, so no 9:30 games listed at all yet.   Do think they will have more than 1 Monday night game though, likely a home and away. 

     

    So could be 8 right now, but by season end, likely less.  

     

    Post is probably more of a guess at this point as very likely a person who knows nothing could easily come to same approximate conclusion. 

    Yes, 6 prime time games is the limit. And those are night games, not 4:25 games

    Can we talk about a Back Up QB?

    Just a thought, now keep in mind this for a backup QB. What would everyone think about Justin Fields? I think if God forbid Allen had to miss a game or 2, Fields would be someone you don't have to entirely change the offense for and has had really good moments at times. It's hard for anyone to really say with any certainty that the Bears didn't hinder his development like they do with all of their QBs. I know he got beat out by Russell Wilson in Pittsburgh but again, another team that has been bad offensively for about the last 5 years under Tomlin. I would take a flyer

    I mean he's not a transcendent player 

     

    But he's absolutely a really good quarterback...Buffalo would have killed for a guy like Donovan McNabb 

     

    Six-time pro bowler when it actually meant something..

     

    McNabb led the NFL twice in total offense per game (2005, 2006), led the NFL in total touchdowns per game (2002), and in 2008 held the NFL record for lowest career interception percentage (2.09%, now surpassed). He is the Eagles' franchise leader in passing yards, passing touchdowns, attempts, and completions

     

    In 2004, became the first player in NFL history to finish a season with 30+ TD passes and fewer than 10 INTs 

     

    He was top five in rushing yards for qbs

     

    eagles wall of fame.. eagles number retired...

     

    He was a good quarterback even if he didn't play his best in the postseason

    Yout can take McNabb out of the equation. Andy Reid went 50-26 with Alex Smith and had 4 playoff years and out 5 years with him. I think we can all agree that is an accomplishment. On the flip side Belichick had Kosar who was good, Testaverde and Bledsoe who was good/decent before Brady and did nothing with them. Alex Smith wasn't much better than all 3 of those guys and Andy Reid got everything he could out of him

    Andy Reid had more talented teams in Philadelphia then Bill did in cleveland

     

    Donovan McNabb was one of the best quarterbacks of the NFC in the 2000s.. easily good enough to win a super bowl.. those eagles teams were loaded.. but Reid and his team always came up short 

     

    Even Alex Smith took longer to develop but he was a number one overall pick who was a good quarterback.. not transcendent but Buffalo still would have been killing for a guy like Alex Smith before Josh and after Jim Kelly lol

     

    Bill belichick also went to the playoffs with Mac Jones and won like 10 or 11 games with Matt Cassel 

     

    He also stopped the bills no huddle offense in the super bowl.. and he stopped the greatest show on turf.. until Andy Reid gets six super bowls he's not better than Bill belichick

     

    He got fired from Philadelphia for always losing the big one

     

    Bill belichick also has a winning record against Andy Reid

    1989 the Browns make it to the AFC Championship game

     

    1991 (2 years later with a lot of the same players and with Bernie Kosar as QB. A guy that Cleveland fans loved and had a lot of succes with) Bill Belichick takes over as head coach and has 4 losing seasons out of 5. Those teams were not that bad

     

    When he took over in NE. He already had guys like Bledsoe, Willie McGinest, Ty Law, Ted Bruschi, Lawyer Malloy and he went 5-11 His first year. The next year (with Bledsoe) he starts 0-2. So, his first 18 games with the Patriots he was 5-13. Bledsoe got hurt, Brady came in and the rest is history. Here's stat for you on the The 08 Patriots which was the year after their 16-0 season and the year Brady went down in week 1. The Patriots went 11-5 that season. 9 of the 11 teams they beat that season had losing records. 2 of those wins were against the Bills twice. The only 2 teams with winning records they beat that year went no better than 9-7. That was the Jets once and the Cardinals in a blizzard in NE. Wanna know the funny part? 4 out of their 5 losses were against teams with WINNING records. They even got smashed the 8-8 Chargers. So let's put the two together. 9 out of 11 wins were to teams with losing records and their 2 wins were against teams that did no better than 9-7. The better teams they played with more than 9 wins they went 0-4 and then got blasted by the 8-8 Chargers. So, let's nit act like what he did that season was some sort of major accomplishment. And then of course is his career post Brady where he had one fluke season with Mac Jones where they started 7-3 and beat up on bad teams and had one win against the Bills in a tornado. And they went 3-4 after that and then got smoked by the Bills in the playoffs. Belichick has always been and will always be nothing without Brady. Brady took a Buccs team on a 12 year playoff drought to a Super Bowl and won it in his first year there. Belichick has failed every which way without Brady. Plain and simple. He is the most overrated head coach of all time and Andy Reid is far better

    BB is better than Andy Reid lol

     

    He won 11 games for Cleveland in 1994.. they didn't win 11 games for 26 more seasons 

     

    He went to the playoffs with Mac Jones.. the dude is the best coach ever 

     

    Even the best can't turn dog crap into pearls .. you need a little to work with

    Andy Reid is better than Belichick. Belichick was in Cleveland for 5 years. You realize that, right? He had ONE and I'll say it again for the people in the back ONE winning season out of those 5 in Cleveland. 

     

    His records in Cleveland (without Brady)

    6-10

    7-9

    7-9

    11-5 playoffs

    5-11

     

    His records in NE (without Brady)

    5-11

    11-5

    7-9

    10-7 (playoffs)

    8-9

    4-13

     

    Now as for Andy Reid (without Mahomes)

    5-11

    11-5 (playoffs)

    11-5 (playoffs)

    12-4 (playoffs)

    12-4 (playoffs)

    13-3 (Super Bowl loss)

    6-10

    10-6 (playoffs)

    8-8 

    9-6-1 (playoffs)

    11-5 (playoffs)

    10-6 (playoffs)

    8-8

    4-12

    11-5 (playoffs with Alex Smith)

    9-7

    11-5 (playoffs with Alex Smith)

    12-4 (playoffs with Alex Smith)

    10-6 (playoffs with Alex Smith)

     

    And then he got Mahomes. It's clear as day to see that Reid had far more success with a lot less at QB than Belichick did. You're literally trying to use ONE winning season out of 5 in Cleveland and ONE fluke season with Mac Jones to prove your point. He has 2 OUT OF 11 seasons WITHOUT BRADY that he made the playoffs. Plain and simple. He is not even average without Brady. Reid WITHOUT MAHOMES had 11 OUT OF 17 seasons that he made the playoffs. 4 of those with Alex Smith who was nothing more than Mediocre his entire career. And he went to 5 Championship games and to a Super Bowl with Philly. He is the far better coach

     

    Belichick without Brady in his career is 84-101

     

    Reid without Mahomes is 

    92-49-1 with McNabb

    50-26 with Alex Smith

     

    It's not even close that Reid is the better coach

    I couldn't disagree more.

     

    I watched those games.  Belichick outcoached pretty much everyone.  It was the combo that led to so many titles, but I saw enough of how he'd coach the defense in particular to know that he is easily one of the best coaches of all time, if not the best.

     

    Without Brady

    6-10

    7-9

    7-9

    11-5 (playoffs)

    5-11

    5-11

    11-5

    7-9

    10-7 (playoffs)

    8-9

    4-13

     

    There is nothing about that that says best HC of all time. He rode on the back of Brady. How about this, the year after Brady left NE he got another Super Bowl with Tampa. Belichick died off. If Brady had 5 extra years with Bruce Arians, he would ne going to the HOF to

    Were you watching the past 2 decades?

     

    Belichick was head & shoulders above every other coach in the league.  

     

    Because he had the greatest QB if all time playing for him. I'll say it again. He had 11 seasons of being a head coach without Brady. He only made the playoffs in 2 of those seasons.

    This is where I'm at.  

     

    I'd only go a little further on Belichick - I really like his analysis & seeing him on the shows now.  He has a sense of humor that we almost never saw when he was coach, and his knowledge is 2nd to none.

     

    Yes. His knowledge is go good he only made the playoffs in 2 out of 11 seasons without Brady. Genius

    How did Luke Kuechly not get in?  Played eight years, 5 first team all pros (two 2nd teams), 7 pro bowls, offensive rookie of the year, and one defensive player of the year. 

     

    Also, I don't like to root against a player but Eli getting in as a 1st ballot HOFer would've sullied the honor a little bit imo.  

    He was so good defensively that he got offensive rookie of year to? That's a hell of an accomplishment and definitely first ballot HOF worthy.

    Forget about Salary Cap and Picks

    It’s easy to say you don’t care about the salary cap when you aren’t an actual GM of an NFL team.

    Does Beane wanna try to win Super Bowls? Or keep treading water?

    Facts! But the reality is that the system is the problem. We could have some.of those big names and I still feel like they would underperform in this defense. I got torched on here for saying we had JAGS on our d-line after we beat Denver and im not disputing that we need a Garret/Crosby type,but Beane ain't spending his precious draft capital that he uses on JAGS  to get a Garret.

    I personally don't think Rousseau is worth extending. If we cut him and bring in Maxx Crosby, I'm perfectly OK with it

    While the cap can be manipulated at times, you can’t just say “forgot about the cap”.   Take a look at Diggs huge dead cap hit for this past season as a perfect example. 

    Kind of a different situation
