May Day 10 Posted November 26, 2009 Share Posted November 26, 2009 I am usually a fan of tradition and everything but... I am (and have been) sick of Thanksgiving Day games in these locations. The teams are normally dull, the games take place in soul-less stadiums. It would be awesome to have the opportuniyt to host a Thanksgiving 12:30 home game in Buffalo... they are probably the most watched games save for the Super Bowl. If they had them elsewhere they could have better match ups, and better crowd atmosphere. they threw in the late game... but it doesnt count. nobody watches it and not everyone has NFL Network anyways. Maybe I would be satisfied if they made the night game one of the early games and sent either the Detroit or Dallas games to primetime every year.

Mark Vader Posted November 26, 2009 Share Posted November 26, 2009 I do'nt mind the Lions & Cowboys playing on Thanksgiving, and since they have a 3rd game it balances out well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KD in CA Posted November 26, 2009 Share Posted November 26, 2009 I do'nt mind the Lions & Cowboys playing on Thanksgiving, and since they have a 3rd game it balances out well. Agreed. They should just make sure the matchups are decent. Why they would pick the Raiders to play today is beyond me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest dog14787 Posted November 26, 2009 Share Posted November 26, 2009 I like sticking to tradition, the Lions and Cowboys kinda go with Thanksgiving like Turkey and stuffing. Good lord, talk about being stuffed, I can barely breath. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve O Posted November 26, 2009 Share Posted November 26, 2009 Only change I would make is to pick the opponent after week 4 to increase the chance of a meaningful match up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjohns85 Posted November 27, 2009 Share Posted November 27, 2009 personally i do not care, just as long as buffalo doesnt play on thanksgiving. thanksgiving is supposed to be a fun day to spend with your family and friends. watching the bills lose, would just kill my spirits.
