2007 NFL Primetime Sked

Analysis of how many times teams are featured in the National Primetime games, including Monday Night, Sunday Night, Thanksgiving, Opening Night, but not including the NFL Network games or flex-Sunday games because they are not set in stone:

Cowboys: 5

Broncos: 4
Saints: 4

Bears: 3
Colts: 3
Chargers: 3
Eagles: 3
Giants: 3
Patriots: 3
Packers: 3
Ravens: 3
Steelers: 3

49ers: 2
Bengals: 2
Falcons: 2
Seahawks: 2
Titans: 2

Bills: 1
Cardinals: 1
Dolphins: 1
Jaguars: 1
Jets: 1
Lions: 1
Redskins: 1
Vikings: 1

Chiefs: 0
Panthers: 0
Rams: 0
Texans: 0
Browns: 0
Raiders: 0
Bucs: 0


I know it's hard making the schedule, and I understand that the Colts get to host a primetime game on opening night, and the Lions and Cowboys always play on Thanksgiving, but is it that hard to make sure that every team gets one national game?

I mean, why would we want to see Larry Johnson or Steve Smith when we can see Tony Romo and Jay Cutler a combined 9 times? Seriously, the Broncos?

  1. I hope you're not getting blog-envy. I just posted twice on Burnsy's.

    Also, have you found sweet chili sauce or do you need me to mail you some?
