my guess on the playoff sch
- Thread starter j-man
- Start date
The conference that plays on MNF has to play the other two games on Sunday. I would imagine they'll put the Jags at 4:30 Saturday, so Saturday has to be an all-AFC day.

Not necessarily, if MNF is a 4-5 game then the other conference game won't be affectred, right?
And Dal-TB is a very juicy pick for MNF
The 4-5 could play anywhere though and they have to play on Sunday for the divisional if they're playing Monday. That's why you can't have a two days rest difference in the same conference.
I think Dallas-TB is the biggest draw and will definitely get the NBC window. I think ESPN gets Seattle-SF if the lions win tonight. If not, Baltimore-Cincy maybe? Giants-Vikings with a ManningCast is intriguing, too.
Chargers - Jaguars & Vikings- Giants should be fun. The rest look like blowouts or boring games aesthetically.
I think it’s widely assumed Lamar plays, so presumably that’s priced into the line.
Jac, Dungy and Garrett.
Edit: Oh yeah. Forgot Al Michaels is calling a playoff game for NBC.
Mute!
I do wish another producer had the balls to amp the field noise and go without a booth like they did back in 1980. That I would watch. Could even do some social media scroll on the side.
Saturday night game is pretty solid, I think. I seem to remember Brady and the Pats getting that time slot a lot (though this was before the playoff schedule was changed). I was banking on that game being the early one on Saturday.
Wow, kind of surprised MNF got Bucs-Cowboys. Maybe a make good there due to the loss of a game with bills-bengals.
Pretty exciting set of matchups.

Is there anything preventing them just having Al call the game with Herbie(not that they’ve gelled like I thought they would)?
