Which game are you most interested in watching on the bye week for the Pats?

Of course with the assumption that you are not prisoner to the local TV broadcast laws and can access any game online,sunday ticket ect:
 
49ers vs Panthers to get a read on Carolina. There's a lot of bad games this weekend.
 
1. Cowboys-Saints

2. Panthers-Niners

3. Broncos-Chargers
 
I will be Christmas shopping, and finishing up everything before our baby is born.
 
Since I rarely ever watch a Panthers game and know little about them besides their running backs,Steve Smith and Newton,I will be interested to see how the middle of their offensive line is with the run by Williams and co. as that is our weak spot here.

I will watch the SF/Car game unless it becomes an early blowout.

An early congratulations and best wishes on your new addition to your family

Congrats on the PatsFans.com-approved reproduction. Some pretty good games though - -probably do some parking in front of CAR-SF and DEN-SD. Go Woodhead!
 
My short attention span and I will be parked over at Red Zone all day.
 
I will probilly watch nfl redzone but ill keep a good eye on the panthers game. It's a team I usually don't watch so I want to know what I should be expecting for next week.
 
Panthers vs 49ers and Bills vs Steelers. Why can't I choose multiple games in the poll? I can watch multiple games if they're in different time slots. I'll probably check out a bit of the bengals vs ravens and chargers vs broncos game.
 
Probably none, there isn't any games that are that appealing
 
These games look to be incredibly boring. Looks like I'll probably be sticking to that red zone channel that I haven't used yet.

But of those games I'll probably be checking on most...

OAK vs NYG at 1:00. I wanna see if the Raiders can beat the Giants.
DEN vs SD at 4:25. I don't expect SD to win but if they can pull out a win that would be awesome. Also watching this to watch Woodhead.
DAL vs NO at 8:30. Shouldn't be too bad of a game. Hoping for a DAL win to help them take the NFC East.
 
Fins-Bucs.

Miami is in our division and only two games back.

Last week, they beat a team we lost to (Bengals).

I hear there's some dissension on the team, though.

Hey, congratulations, man!
 
From the comments it sounds like I am in the minority here, but I see a lot of games well worth watching. Detroit at Chicago for control of the NFC North and Cincinnati at Baltimore for the AFC North early, followed by Carolina at San Francisco and Denver at San Diego late, then what should be a shootout with Dallas at New Orleans Sunday night. That's five games without taking any interest due to division and conference standing into account, and it would have been six with Philly at Green Bay if Vick and Rodgers weren't sidelined with injuries.

I wanna watch them all, AND I wanna get work done somehow (not housework. Career, dream job work.).

San Diego/Denver may be a shoot out as well.
 
I always make a point of watching the Panthers play when they're not on at the same time as the Pats, and having them next week is all the more reason. Super fun team to watch.

Absolutely. Let's see how the Saints respond to last week's loss. Philip Rivers is playing great this year and might be able to keep pace with Manning if Mike McCoy can come up with a plan to limit the Broncos. Those two games should make for a good contrast the Panthers-49ers game.

Even the other games have something to make it worth watching. How does Green Bay do with a week to prepare without Rodgers? Can the St. Louis pass rush get to Luck? How does Keenum do in his second start, against a pretty good defense at Arizona? How does Pittsburgh respond to last week's loss? How does Miami look after all the off-field stuff they have had to deal with? Glennon and the Bucs played pretty well at Seattle; can they get their first win? Can Seattle keep winning away from home on long road trips?
