mdskins75 Posted December 10, 2007 Share Posted December 10, 2007 At the very least it is probably a 4:15 game. A couple reasons this game gets bumped. Vikes play Bears on Monday night and this would give them more time. Could pretty much be a mini playoff game IF we beat Giants. Looking at the schedule that week there is no other noteworthy game other than Giants at Bills. The NFL has to make decision by this Tuesday.. i think so if they are looking at the best matchup then this game has a very good shot at being moved to 8:15. They can't wait to see if we beat NY but have to roll the dice. I think we play Sunday night two weeks in a row and i don't think there is any rule that stops that from happening.

kobra860 Posted December 10, 2007 Share Posted December 10, 2007 I hope that it will. Unfortunately, the coverage will be similar to the Eagles game except that this time they'll be sweating over Adrian Peterson. Since this is a crucial game for the wildcard spot, I'm sure they'll be willing to move the Bucs vs. 49ers game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MNF hyping McNabb that night was sickening though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just don't see how this game isn't a Sunday nighter? Basically a potential playoff game in week 16 as long as we beat New York and i know that is a very big if. NFL has to make decision by Tuesday and i don't see how any other game takes priority over this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You know i actually enjoy watching Peterson. He is a star he definitely is fun to watch. Now mcnabb is defintely past tense. There is not much star left in him and i would think it's hard to hype him at this point. The eagles have to be even less primetime next year. Mcnabb another year older, they are clearly a team that is on the decline. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jofizz Posted December 10, 2007 Share Posted December 10, 2007 I looked into it, and Fox has not protected the Minn/Was game, so don't be surprised if it gets moved to Sunday night. It's much more appealing than San-Fran/Tampa. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

corrupt3d Posted December 10, 2007 Share Posted December 10, 2007 yeah, there certainly aren't any other good games that week. Miami @ NE maybe cause we know Madden sucks Brady's dick, though NE might be past the night game limit. Houston @ Indy maybe (its a stretch) but the biggest competitor is Green Bay @ Chicago. Who knows, WASH @ MIN it could be... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kevinklein Posted December 10, 2007 Share Posted December 10, 2007 I can imagine they wouldn't flex anyone other than the Pats as long as they're undefeated that late in the season. They probably didn't today because it was already a 4 o'clocker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't get me wrong I want to win the next three games as much as the next "FAN", but even a "FAN" has to keep some perspective of where his team sits.

SkinsFanPA Posted December 10, 2007 Share Posted December 10, 2007 I'd rather the Dallas game go to Sunday night...last game of the regular season for the whole league, in prime time, at home, clinching a wildcard berth against the Cowgirls...

NEPatriots Posted December 10, 2007 Share Posted December 10, 2007 Doubt it, NBC has a hard on for Brady and Manning and i openly admit that despite being a Pats fan. I want to see some afternoon football like the old days all these night games suck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
