Oso planning to go pro
NFL should really have all four of its networks televising games this final Sunday afternoon.
Exactly. I get sos over a few games, but not entire season in nfl. I'm guessing the Patriots not apologizing for playing in most putrid division year after year almost guaranteeing them a AFC championship game.
I don't think a 10-6 Vikings team loing to a Mahomes-less Chiefs says much of anything.
They might in the future with future deals, but the other networks didn't buy the rights for them...thus NFL Sunday Ticket has them in conjunction with CBS and FOX
The no Mahomes argument is weak as well.
I understand that. I just think the way NFL televises its Sunday games is a relic of a different era. The fact I can't see the Eagles / Giants game on anything but a package purchased on Direct TV is very odd to when when I can watch pretty much any FBS college game on any given Sunday.
I know it will never happen, but an EPL like last day of NFL of the Sunday season would be so much fun. 16 games at like 4pm EST, across ESPN, CBS, ABC, FOX, NFL...make it a huge event the Sunday after XMas
Not exactly, plenty of examples to prove that out incorrectly.Seattle Seahawks 2nd toughest and they are 11-4The KC Chiefs have the 10th hardest schedule going into today and finish 12-4.Houston Texas at 8th toughestRams with the toughest, likely to finish 9-7Conversely, the team with the worst record should benefit from SOS because of all those losses...but the 2-14 Bengals right now have the 7th toughest schedule and it should drop to 9th by end of today....one would expect they would be in the top 5 if Pakuni's argument held true. Dolphins and Redksins both have schedules 25th or worse despite all of their losses which should improve their SOS by fattening up the other teams.
That may be the case and the NFL had a chance to change it 6 months ago...they declined. They wanted the guaranteed money because Amazon, ESPN+ and others wouldn't pay what they were looking for. So, for now, the relic will continue for a number of years unless someone else steps up and pays...right now those other guys have said no. The NFL likes their money.

Really? First of all today's game was meaningless to the vikings. They are still a playoff team in a tough nfc and at the time a top 3 or 4 team in the conference.
Well the Vikings coildnt beat kc without Mahomes and kc still had all their weapons. Kc backup qb played pretty well. All the divisions have weak teams. NFC south not that great either. Arguably the best division is nfc north where the packers had 6 games. Also had to play the best team in the nfc west.
All nonsense this isn't ncaa basketball you get no extra consideration for playing a supposed tougher schedule. Any team can lose to any team and they do especially on the the road.
Look, if you don't think the Packers got a huge break playing the Chiefs in Kansas City without the reigning MVP in their lineup, that is your opinion. But it is a very dumb one.
I honestly have no idea how anyone watches the NFL without the ticket.
I didn't say they didn't get a break. Kc is still a very difficult team to beat at home and have lots of weapons not to mention Matt Moore played a great game. What is dumb is minimizing a 13-3 team and a 1 or 2 seed because they didn't win in the way you wanted.
There are many ways.
