it's not a big deal if nobody sees us in the week 1. When we win the first 8 games, we will be nationally televised every week after that.

Because CBS is televising the US Open in the 4pm slot that Sunday. There are no Seattle/SF/SD home games against AFC opponents.

Has there been any news on that rumored "home game" against Denver in Edmonton (or was it Calgary?)?

Why wouldn't they show NFC home team games on Fox? Did they change that too. I'm from WA State so I know they show Hawks at 4 all the time when they are at home and it was always on Fox. I bet the same would be for San Fran. Not so sure about San Diego though since they are AFC.

The rule is the network that gets the game is the network of the road team. So if it's an AFC road team (the Pats) it's on CBS. And since CBS has the US Open men's final at 4, there are no CBS NFL games that day at 4, which would eliminate the west coast trips for the Pats.

I'm sticking by my preditcion of week 9 at Seattle on Monday night and week 10 at Indy.

Thanks, just realized that. Makes sense. I'm just waiting to find out when we play the Hawks so that I can get tickets.

Ah, very nice observation. And ya, thats about the time a Colts/Pats game would come into a schedule.
