Worst divisional matchup in primetime?

Of the four divisional playoff games this weekend, the Arizona Cardinals-Carolina Panthers match-up is easily the least enticing. The Cardinals stumbled to the title in the NFL's weakest division, while Carolina is a talented team without a lot of national hype. With three other games that pit fierce division rivals (Philadelphia Eagles at New York Giants), two stout defenses (Baltimore Ravens and Tennessee Titans) and teams playing a rematch of the game with the most thrilling ending of the year (San Diego Chargers at Pittsburgh Steelers), why is the NFL subjecting us to the Cards-Panthers in Saturday primetime?

What a complete jerk this guy is. BB material for both teams. :nono:

screw you dude....Cards are a top 2 offense in nfl....we're #2 seed...why would it be true?

Because no one outside of Arizona and the Carolinas cares about our game. I didn't say I liked it, but it's the truth.

If I were a fan with no horse in the race I'd be much more interested in the other games.

If this was from AOLsports, I would have swore it was Jay Mariotti.

I really don't understand this thinking. This game out of the 4 has the potential to be the highest scoring, and isn't that what most of the casual NFL fans want?

In a word no... like it or not the Cards have been in a word boring for the last month. The Panthers are a huge favorite, the casual fan is expecting a yawner, not that I think it will be.

We got the primetime game because everyone wants to see the Panthers whoop the Cards up and down the field of Bank of America Stadium under the lights! Honestly I think we got it because the Titans stadium "LP Field" is a complete dump and the Vault is one of the best stadiums in the NFL.

fixed :cool:

    • I would write “give remmers tight end help” on a yellow sticky note and stuck it in shulas playbook the night before superbowl 50. 
    • And don’t worry about Bryce he will be great… Peyton Manning had a horrible rookie year too 😂
    • Nothing wrong with it at all until you start telling others they are bad fans or not fans. But you are the good fan because you never say negative stuff about the team.    I did many years of that type of uninformed fanning because there really was no info and coverage like there is with the internet.    I mean, I used to go to the store and get Street and Smith’s annual football issue. That was about the extent of what you could get if you didn’t live in a big city with sportswriters covering and reporting.  There was no video to look at or replay the games and if you didn’t live in the market you could only rarely see your football team play.    TI have fanned since being a kid in the early 1960s, and as late as 1995 - ‘97 I lived in Atlanta and good luck getting more than 3 or 4 games a year on TV. No radio either. No print coverage outside of an AP recap and box unless they played Atlanta.  People today that have always had the network connection don’t know.    I wasn’t very educated about the Panthers until I finally got internet.
