The easy fix would be to add an additional bye week to the schedule and use it before the TNF games.
Another suggestion I heard a caller make to a sports radio show was to make the TNF game the last game of the week instead of the first game. So a team would skip the Sunday game and play it on Thursday essentially giving them two 10 day breaks . Not sure how that would look on the schedule. Opening day weekend would have two teams not playing on Sunday.
A second BYE week is the easiest solution for everything. Adds another week of ratings for the league, more rest for the players and can act as a buffer for TNF, MNF or London & co. games. Everybody wins.
