OT: Guess the NBC Sun Night opener...
 

That, the Mon Nighters, and the T-Giving games will be announced tom.

Anyhow-here are my guesses on the opening Sun nighter...

1. Balt @ Dallas...there's been rumblings recently of McNabb being traded to the Ravens. I doubt if McNabb is going anywhere, however-IF this is the game, then obviously there is some meat to this rumor.(another TO vs. McNabb clash hyped up by the national media)

2. Philly @ Balt...See above

3. NE/Rams...rematch of the SBXXXVI

4. Indy/GB...if this is played at Lambeau, then before the Packers' game where they retire #4 in front of everyone, they'll treat everyone to an opponent against an AFC Powerhouse.

5. Dallas @ Pitt...NFC vs AFC classic matchup

I doubt we see Fox give up one of its two Pats games without a fight. They can only broadcast the games with the Rams and the Cardinals. Fox will make sure they get BOTH of those.

If it's Pats/Hawks I'd be cool with that, get one of the west coast trips out of the way, though ideally all the west coast trips would be 4:00 games.

Can you imagine if the made it Pats/Rams and then something actually happened with the golf pro?

Excellent point.

Patriots at San Diego - will either be Sunday or Monday nighter

Re: OT: Guess the NBC Sun Night opener...
 

I wouldn't like it if the Pats had to travel to the West Coast for Sunday Night game. That's a rough travel schedule and they should get to play a day when they go out West so they can get back at a somewhat decent hour.

That said, I'd rather they have the West Coast trip for a night game in week 1 than have it any other time during the season.

Early prediction: Patriots win when they go to Seattle, but lose in San Diego. The Chargers are going to be sky high to beat the Patriots whenever that game occurs.

Refuse to listen to Clayton, but it makes sense.. Still going with San Diego on sun nite

Re: OT: Guess the NBC Sun Night opener...
 

Pats/Seahawks on Sunday night would be a logistical nightmare since the M's are hosting the Yankees that day too.

I'm calling Pats/Seahawks on Monday night, 10 EST on ESPN.

Oh, for the Sunday nighter it will be Chicago @ Indy to open Lucas Oil Field - count on it.

Re: OT: Guess the NBC Sun Night opener...
 

I see no chance. They use that spot for a west coast only match-up (SF/AZ and SD/Oak are the previous 2) as no one on the East Coast will watch it.
