2023 Schedule

[fastforward]

who is that way down at bottom and talking about being entertaining?

The Rams don't draw an audience and probably won't be entertaining. That's why they have only 1 SNF or MNF game, and i'm not complaining about it. If anything it's 1 game too many based on 2023 projections. The Lions have the season opening game, a Thanksgiving Day game, a Saturday Night game, AND a MNF game. Frankly, that's enough high profile games. (I ignored other Thursday games).

I cant root for the Lions because they are in my teams division. But I am half rooting for the Lions.

Love how they are building their team and specifically their offense OL first.

They have Jared Goff (not bad but not great) and below average playermakers at almost all of their skill positions last year and had a top 5 offense. Shows you what an really good OL can do.

I'd probably describe their team building strategy as BPA and not 'OL first' but the picks they've hit on the best have been OL. Imo, 90% of drafts Penei Sewell wouldn't make it to pick 7 and they just happened to be in one of the few drafts where he did. Sewell is still younger than some of the prospects coming out of this year's draft so he hasnt even hit his prime yet.

But yeah, their OL is pretty good.

Dallas is one of like 4 or 5 teams that pathetically have not made it to a conference championship game this century. Truly one of the least successful franchises of this century.

Yet you can't keep your eyes off them. Must be why they get more PT games then your beloved Eagles. No?

Isn't the best thing about sports being the unpredictability? Yet so many predict the darnedest things.

Maybe a 2023 thread dedicated to 2023 NFL predictions. This way we can go back to this exclusive thread and see whose the best.

Someone please get me tissues over the 27 years the Cowboys haven't made the NFC Championship Game meanwhile the Eagles have become and continue to be one of the best run and successful organizations in the league during this century which we are already over 2 decades into.

What can I say.
The NFL loves their Money.
& The Cowboys make that for them.
The NFL loves them in the spotlight!

People just love watching the clown show of failure that are the Cowboys. They provide a comedy of errors.

Wow...a short run of success and somebody is going to dislocate their shoulder patting themself on the back.

 

[PDay8810]

Second verse same as the first.

It's like the adults talking in a Charlie Brown cartoon

Flavor of the month? One of the most successful franchises of this century.

Well...for the Pat's, we only go back a couple of seasons.

Loser

Patriots aren't one of the most successful franchises of this century, they are THE most successful franchise of this century.

Well just helping you get through answering your question why the insignificant Cowboys get more games than the Mighty Eagles.
I hope you are gonna survive.

Just as an observation here but if you are truly a fan of your team, should you really give a flying fuck how many prime time games they play or who else plays more? You watch your team regardless of the when and where bullshit.

I've posted it for years, Philly & Wasington fans continue to keep Dallas as their benchmark. Shame they can't be more like the GMen fans. 57 years and counting.

Less primetime games means more normal weeks to prepare for the next team. I get the occasional 10 days off after the Thursday night game but heading into that Thursday night game is brutal on that short week.

Want to be on tv? Then be entertaining. It's about tv advertising revenues, and the Lions can't draw an audience. Doesn't matter if teams are good or are winning games.

If that was true is the league encouraged to make their prime time game teams have more wins to hype up the matchups?
