Is it Time for the NFL to Remove Detriot from the Turkey Day Schedule?
This is getting ridiculous...they have a been a horrific franchise ever since the merger...people deserve better. The NFL could really get Great better ratings if they reschedule some others Teams or making this Game apart of a Flex Schedule. Again people deserve better...i don't think any of us is going to watch Detriot play...it's a disgrace...i'll be watching Bridezilla instead.

Thankfully we have two good games on Thursday (on paper anyway) but, yes, Detroit is largely a consistent joke and need to be flexed out, permanently, of this annual showcase game.

Titans @ Lions = Go Titans. Watching a team trying to put together a 0-16 season is actually entertaining.
Seattle @ Dallas = Potential snoozer blowout ala the Jets game last year. Only interesting if Seattle wins and puts the Cowboy's playoff hopes in jeopardy. Cardinals @ Eagles = A team that's a lock to win it's divison against a team that isn't making the playoffs. Bleh. |

Yes. I propose the following.
The Thanksgiving Day games would be, Early Game: The Winner of the Super Bowl plays the OPPOSITE CONFERENCE LOSER of their AFC or NFC title game - So this year it would be: Giants VS. San Diego. The Late game would be: The LOSER of the Super Bowl plays the Loser of the OPPOSITE CONFERENCE Title game. So this year it would be: New England Patriots Vs. The Green Bay Packers. Thoughts? Basicaly what you would get is the prior years Super Bowl if the "OTHER" team had won. |

I like it the way it is...Dallas and Detroit...really interestiung with teh worst and best playing...how about an upset?? Could happen...but??? Titans are too strong..but one never knows. I like the NFLN third game...that always adds to it as there is no set teams playing...I like the tradition...

Then the hype surrounding the game would be all or mostly about the SB LOSERS, which the teams involved probably wouldn't like too much. jmo tho. |
