Cin @ SD

[PhunkE1]

I hope to god that the NFL is at least consideirng moving that game to Sunday night. The rules state that we will find out no later than 12 days before the game. Anyone in the know? The current game that week is MIN @ CAR. Obviously CIN @ SD is a bigger game than MIN @ CAR. Could come down to that game for the #2 seed.

Favre plays for Minn. The Minn game stays, how else would they fit in the weekly ball-washing otherwise?

I was just wondering the same thing. That's why I came to the forum today.

I researched to find the same rules that you stated--the move must be made at least 12 days before the game. I guess we'll find out in the next two days. Any insight from someone who knows more than I do about the flex would be great.

My first thought was that it would be really cool to see our Bengals on Sunday Night--I love NBC's coverage. Then I thought, "Well, we don't want to mess up the routine and get our young guys all jacked up and not be able to think straight." But then I remembered that any routine involving us in a West Coast game needs to be messed up as much as possible.

So I say BRING ON COLLINSWORTH!

CBS has Cin @ SD as one of their "protected" games. It can't be moved.

That's true about Favre...but that would be twice in three weeks. Shouldn't there be a limit? That's why I was so happy when Favre AND Madden retired. We can only take so much drooling and man-crushing.

Thanks for the info. I was wondering how CBS would feel about their best game of the day being taken from them.

Okay then, another week of trying to understand what the comms are saying with their mouth full of Bret cock. It's a shame, I'd love to be able to have it moved to SNF, I could watch it on the TV then, instead of an undersized, grainy, jerky stream.

It will be a much better game too.

No viewing worries for me. I am working on having field passes for that game. Should know by thursday.

The other late game on CBS that week is Denver v. Oakland. The SD v. Cincy game should be very national. I would guess that most of the country gets it.

I want to keep the schedule. I even hate 4pm games.

Im just happy we are playing some good teams the next couple weeks.

Yeah... I was thinking, given the meltdown by the Steelers and (assuming a loss tonight) a mediocre Ravens team, the Bengals have only beaten one team with a winning record. Their resume looked a hell of a lot better 3 weeks ago.
