I was almost certain that on Thanksgiving, there were two games: one with DAL, and one with DET...not three games.

|
Used to be two but due to popular demand there are now three. I'll be thankful if New England loses

Quoted: Why not? ETA - Why ask why? Bud Dry... Damn you're old. (loved me some bud dry back when...)

I am thankful there is a third game - now at night.
Go Texans, BTW. |

The night game, this time Pats and Jets, is on every Thursday.

There should only be one game on Thanksgiving and it should have the Lions in it. Stop fucking with tradition.

Quoted:
Is Tebow gonna start tonight? I've never figured Tebow out. If he is that good of an athlete put him at TE or maybe LB, but not QB. He's probably a great guy, just not a QB. Oh, and GO PATS! |
|
Quoted: Is Tebow gonna start tonight? Yes, on the punt unit. Sanchez is a better QB and I don't think he's very good.

Dallas and Detroit always play traditional Thanksgiving day games. A few years ago, they started having a game every week on Thursday night. The Pats/Jets game tonight is just the standard Thursday night game this week.

Quoted: Tebow was really just brought in to sell PSLs, jerseys, and tickets, though Woody Johnson will deny it constantly. There are rumors that Ryan didn't want Tebow but had no choice in the matter. Ryan wanted to promote Bill Callahan to offensive coordinator, but they hired Sparano instead. I think he's having this Tebow wildcat nonsense forced on him by either Tannenbaum or Johnson or both. Quoted: Is Tebow gonna start tonight? I've never figured Tebow out.

In case you're interested, there's 2 Mexican soccer games on tonight too.

I guess that the players will have to strike due to unfair working conditions. They should be able to spend one day with their families instead of slaving away for well over an hour for little pay and meager benefits.

As painful as it is for me to admit this, I think Tebow's best days are behind him at the quarterback position. The type of offense he can really run is not what all the other teams are running in the NFL. You put him in at QB, you are changing your entire offense around. I think he's a great person and role model, but I don't see him as a NFL quarterback. And he looks and runs like a damn tackle now. He's put so much extra muscle and mass on he looks slow running now........he seemed much quicker last year. |

Everyone got sick of watching two bottom feeder teams get beat on at home so they wanted to give the fans at least one good game with playoff implications at night.

$$$ Next question. This is why there is Thursday NFL football at all. $$$$$$$ Each game brings in more TV revenue when the they don't have to be played simultaneously on Sundays. The NFL doesn't like competition, even against itself. |
|
I had assumed it was the new normal Thursday night football plus two Thanksgiving games
|

Quoted: Dallas and Detroit always play traditional Thanksgiving day games. A few years ago, they started having a game every week on Thursday night. The Pats/Jets game tonight is just the standard Thursday night game this week. yeah it was NFL network that started showing the Thursday Nighter's and continued on Turkey Day |
|
Because the NFL network came into existence and realized what a good deal the other two had.

Quoted: Why not? ETA - Why ask why? Bud Dry... Yeah who gives a fuck? I love football on Thanksgiving, just wish I didn't hafta watch Romo flailing in the pocket. God he sucks. |

Go Pats. Tebow would make a good Patriot receiver. He fits the mold.

A few years ago, the NFL started Thursday night football. Couple that with the traditional games at Dallas and Detroit and you get three games
