So with #SWAG (Cam) putting critics to rest, taking Carolina to the #5 offense in the NFL so far, and with the increased attention nationally...what are the odds that we finally get some love with a Monday Night Football/Sunday Night Football or other nationally televised games next year?

I swear we get one of these a week.

After the Browns won 10 games with Derek Anderson, the next year they got 4 or 5 primetime games. By that logic, we will play exclusively on Monday and Sunday night.

Monday Night Football must and will return to Charlotte in 2012.

there have been some terrible primetime matchups this year...the Colts got like 3 or 4 primetime games this year and we all know what happened with that.

Newton vs Luck Primetime game?

[DangerClose19K]

yeah and the ravens/jags game was possibly the worst MNF game i have ever watched.

Flex scheduling baby.

[chris999]

we will probably get a flex game this year if for no other reason than because we play all of our games at 1pm est. all season. America wants to see Cam Newton and Steve Smith.

Next year, not only will we be a better football team, but we will also have some featured games, no doubt about it.

I'll be asking off work for the Monday/Tuesday after those games the minute the schedule comes out.

[Johnny Kilroy]

The only problem this year is that if we do get flexed this year it will probably come on the road. Always love home games at night.

Don't see it happening though anyways.

[carolinarolls]

they try to schedule the better teams for the prime time television slots

does that help? did you really not know that?

I'm expecting 3 or 4 SNF or MNF games in 2012. We play the NFC East and AFC West next year. I bet we get two night games vs the East (Eagles and either the Cowboys or Giants) and one or two night division games.

I can't imagine the possibility of high ratings for one of our games against New Orleans next year, who wouldn't want to see two high-powered offenses duke it out til the last whistle? I'm thinking they would pick the one we play at our house seeing as how that would be the tightest game (because we would still have a young team even if it is good; against an elite team that has cohesiveness, the match up would be a bit less interesting at the superdome).
