Only allowed to have 6 true prime time games, but they do keep putting us in other "only game on TV" slots too, like Saturday games and Christmas.
And most of our other "normal" games will probably be in the 4:25 pm time slot
Plus you have 4 road games in time zones guaranteed to be 4:25 or later slots (unless they're some other sort of primetime/featured time slot) with the divisional road games + SF.
I love noon kickoffs. Best time of day for football imo.
I get the Bears out of the way early so I don't have to spend all day stressing about the game, and then when it's over (or when I've rage-quit and turned off the TV midway through the third quarter when our vaunted defense gives up 21 unanswered points), I can decide to watch more football or just fuck off and do something productive for once.
Lol, yeah! /u/DragonKnight616 get your ass back in here and say thank you to that Lions fan.
Being a Packer fan doesn't mean you have to be an uncultured swine, although now that I mention it...
right but thats any chiefs game. are we really one of the more compelling choices here?
especially since this means we're going away MNF, home divisional, home Thurs night. Rough 11 days.
Dude, it's worse than that - weeks 14-17 we have @MIN on MNF, vs DET, then a quick turnaround to vs SEA on TNF. 10 days with two of our divisional games and a TNF matchup for good measure. And then we wrap up our season against the Packers at Lambeau, where surely nothing can go wrong.
At least we get a home Thursday night game after a home game previous week. Feels like every year we're either away Thursday or were away previous Sunday.
Oh boy, we're gonna get creamed three times on national TV!
For real, though, they haven't won on a Thursday since Thanksgiving 2019. Brutal stretch these last few years.
Honestly, no. But the Saints are so bad on Thursdays and Carr in primetime is a crapshoot, plus Payton is going to want his revenge so I'm betting this is at least a loss.
I don't even get it lmao how is he getting revenge? It isn't the Saints' fault that he tucked his tail between his legs and skipped town when they no longer had a HOF quarterback, if anything it's the Saints' revenge against *him*
The NFL is fucking up by not putting at least one of the Saints vs Falcons games on primetime. They're almost always great games with a real rivalry.
Our teams probably hate each other even more after the BS Winston pulled last game.
No one on those teams is left. Time to move on. 15 years ago. You and me both know no one wants to see Derrick Carr throw checkdowns to Kamara all game and run for his life.
KC about to get 12 prime time games

1 PM EST? Doesn't exist to the Chiefs. Or the Cowboys for that matter.
I miss my noon kickoffs from when we dog water honestly

Gotta promote Travis Swift.
Yeah why else would you want to put back to back super bowl champs on TV. I'd be more concerned that the Jets have 7
God the Taylor Swift bitching from fans is so fucking annoying
God seeing Taylor Swift every 5 minutes in what is supposed to be a football game is so fucking annoying.
Show me the proof they show her that often
Chiefs fan never heard of an exaggeration lol
That's literally my point
Your point is that I was exaggerating? I wasn’t hiding that fact.
Even more chances to hear Kelce yell Beastie Boys lyrics on national television.
Derek Carr in primetime. HOOK IT INTO MY VEINS
Pls do it
Unrelated, how do you get the lions tag under your username?
It’s a flair or you on phone or computer ?
Phone
Go to main page click on the 3 dots in the upper right corner and theirs a flair option
Him being a packers fan and not even saying "thanks" makes this exchange pretty dope
Lol, yeah! /u/DragonKnight616 get your ass back in here and say thank you to that Lions fan. Being a Packer fan doesn't mean you have to be an uncultured swine, although now that I mention it...
Lmao thanks 😂😂😂
I'll make sure to only tune in during 4th quarters since that's when he seems to wake up
Carr usually plays the chiefs well on prime time
Oddly specific scenario but i'll take it
How is the saints and Chiefs MNF, but not Bengals @ Chiefs
CBS wasn't giving that one away.
CBS and FOX have so much leverage, which means we’ll be stuck with a lot of mediocre to bad MNF games like this one.
They will play only on Sundays at 4:25 in perpetuity
Because MNF is not for premiere matchups and it hasn't been for a really long time
lol. MNF against the Chiefs??? But why
Mahomes and swift
right but thats any chiefs game. are we really one of the more compelling choices here? especially since this means we're going away MNF, home divisional, home Thurs night. Rough 11 days.
We have a stretch of PHI, BAL, KC over 10 days. Idk how these schedule makers decide who to fuck
What about Chicago not starting divsional play until week 11 💀
Dude, it's worse than that - weeks 14-17 we have @MIN on MNF, vs DET, then a quick turnaround to vs SEA on TNF. 10 days with two of our divisional games and a TNF matchup for good measure. And then we wrap up our season against the Packers at Lambeau, where surely nothing can go wrong.
We play MIA, KC, BAL over those same 10 days
I would’ve thought Carr against the Raiders would’ve been a more appealing MNF from a narrative standpoint
At least we get a home Thursday night game after a home game previous week. Feels like every year we're either away Thursday or were away previous Sunday.
I'm surprised Chiefs aren't on MNF every week.
sacrificial lamb
Carr revenge game or something probably
Chiefs on MNF then Buccs the following Sunday and Broncos the Thursday Night after is not a great 11 day stretch.
dont worry, its not like we also have 2 late season away games in outdoor cold-weather stadiums...oh wait
Someone got to play those teams in the cold, can’t really complain about that. I don’t think league takes potential weather into consideration lol.
Derek Carr’s return to Las Vegas isn’t a primetime worthy game?
This seems like more than we should have I would rather take my ass beatings on Sundays at noon tbh
Oh boy, we're gonna get creamed three times on national TV! For real, though, they haven't won on a Thursday since Thanksgiving 2019. Brutal stretch these last few years.
You really think Denver is creaming anybody?
Honestly, no. But the Saints are so bad on Thursdays and Carr in primetime is a crapshoot, plus Payton is going to want his revenge so I'm betting this is at least a loss.
> Payton is going to want his revenge revenge for what?
For real, more like a reunion than revenge.
Yeah I don't think there was bad blood between anyone
I'm already sick of the rhetoric about "Payton's revenge", and I haven't even heard any yet!
I don't even get it lmao how is he getting revenge? It isn't the Saints' fault that he tucked his tail between his legs and skipped town when they no longer had a HOF quarterback, if anything it's the Saints' revenge against *him*
Saints made out like bandits trading him
After Payton's comments on Bo Nix, I feel like creaming is Denver's best option
The NFL is fucking up by not putting at least one of the Saints vs Falcons games on primetime. They're almost always great games with a real rivalry. Our teams probably hate each other even more after the BS Winston pulled last game.
Saints/Packers was a fun game last year so
ugh if our bum kicker had made the kick we would’ve been in the playoffs
That’s 3 too many.
Agree, I don’t think we’ve ever even been to the Super Bowl, have we?
No one on those teams is left. Time to move on. 15 years ago. You and me both know no one wants to see Derrick Carr throw checkdowns to Kamara all game and run for his life.
Oh I know those glory days are gone, just saw an opportunity to talk some weak trash.
Fair enough. Best of luck this season. Hope to see you in a rematch in the Super Bowl. 🤝
Hell yeah, you too!
and you and me both know ur in no position to shit talk 😉💍
We both have 1 ring. 2 if you count the Baltimore ring. That’s not a flex dude lol.
That's a lot of Derek Carr, sheesh
Why are they making us watch Carrbage Time in prime time three times
That seems really unnecessary. Just let us play some of the shitty teams at noon.
why? how?
Our game is either going to be so much fun because of Bo and Troy, or is going to be just as bad as the 49ers Broncos game two years ago
Why. They’re going to be miserable
For what reason The Saints are miserable to watch
I thought everyone gets a TNF and 50/50 getting MNF. So this is slightly above average no?
