Sunday is the Lord's Day so we Pray to the Shield: 2022-2023 Official NFL Season Thread

Of course give us the short week after Tennessee had a Thursday game

That's dumb.. what's the rationale for that to not be the Sunday night game.

I think it's going to be Packers and Lions... But from what I understand if Seattle wins the Lions are eliminated regardless so it doesn't make sense..

Give the Jags and Titans Sunday night

Not a bad option but I think I'd prefer GB-Detroit. Give me some NFC North and Dan Campbell fukkery for the run-up. Not to mention both teams are playing well and the Titans been trash for well over a month.

New tv deal might have given ESPN a choice for the Saturday Night game last week of the season.

"Regular season portfolio grows to 19 regular season games, consisting of 17 Monday Night Football games and Saturday games in the final week of the regular season. Both Saturday games will have playoff implications."

It looks like that's what they're doing. The only problem I have is that if the Seahawks win, then Detroit is eliminated and yeah they'll probably play hard as usual, but you know some guys will naturally be let down that they have nothing to play for except taking the Packers down with them.

Mike Tomlin is a GOAT coach. That's my top takeaway from today.

I love how draft pick trades can have you rooting against the folks you traded with. Them Broncos picks gon be hitting good for a minute

Seahawks haven’t had top 5 pick in 3 decades, I was more excited at this prospect than making the playoffs this year lol.

We can get Jalen Carter, Will Anderson or CJ Stroud
Or
Trade down for 2 first and 2 seconds for a QB desperate team

Endless possibilities

 

[Wild self]

Tom Shady finna get retired like Dan Marino in the first rd

 

[ExodusNirvana]

Other than the Giants making the playoffs, this was my favorite moment of this Sunday

Trying to make it sound like the Seahawks haven't had one in 30 years with the three decades comment. .


They took Aaron Curry at #4 overall in 2009. Trying to call one year an entire decade..

If BUF beats CIN tonight, CIN vs. BAL will be for the AFC North title next week.

So I imagine that’s also being held for SNF potentially.
