Ahh, Thursday Night Football. The spitless handjob of sports. Got some bills on the Jags, so, uh, yay Jacksonville!

How long are these Thursday games going to last? The public doesn't seem to eat them up as the league anticipated

At a glance, it seems the NFLN games draw an audience about a third smaller than Monday Night Football, plus TNF has resulted in NFLN reaching a lot more homes than it otherwise would. If those results are disappointing to the NFL, they had unreasonable expectations.

Right. Even with the lower ratings this season, TNF is never going away unless the NFLPA bargains for it.

Because the NFL is stupid.

Bortles is a gifted player, and his decision making is getting better. But he's got no line, no running game, and no receivers who can separate against quality coverage.

The Jags sure do love to run it into the teeth of the D with their backups when near the goalline.

Wtf are they doing? If they're gonna run it all the goal line give it to Yeldon. But that also begs the question why the fuck are they running it all 3 downs there anyways. They have single coverage on Allen Robinson, who dominated on that drive, but they refuse to throw it.

I'm not watching this game, but one of my friends just posted a video of the "Pylon Cam".

Did the NFL really put a camera on the pylon and have it facing the wrong way for being useful?? After complaining about how much money it would cost to put useful cameras on the pylon?

It the camera isn't pointed to the inside, the pylon cam is dumb.
