It's That Time of Year Again (The Week 17 Flex)

They never learn. Year after year Dallas manages to hang around mathematically until the last week of the season. Every year they get flexed into prime time match ups. I'm just tired of it. We've been overexposed to the NFC LEAST. Death, Taxes, and the Dallas Cowboys imploding in the final game of the regular season.

 

Our Panthers will play the Falcons at 1pm on Sunday. I'm OK with this because our opponent is bad and the drive home from Atlanta will be easier to manage on Sunday for fans. It also sets us up for an appealing slate of 4pm games. The Bucs and Saints game may mean little to us by 4pm. That gives us a chance to root for the 49ers vs. Cardinals and the Rams vs. Seahawks. The Packers and Bears looks like a fun game too. With all these appealing match ups I come back to my original point: the Cowboys are depriving us of a good Sunday Night game.

It looks like in Charlotte (Concord for me) that we get 4 afternoon games this Sunday on TWC.

 

CBS are two AFC games already listed.

 

But on Fox they are both TBA.........of course the early game will be us.................but what I'm interested in what game we get on Fox for the late game with so many good ones then.

 

Does anyone know when they post this?

 

Right now it is TBA for Fox at 4:30pm

I hate the Cowboys as much as anyone, but the networks can't really be blamed for the fact that polarizing teams get ratings.

People who love the Cowboys will watch in hopes of seeing them win. People who hate the Cowboys will watch in hopes of seeing them get destroyed. Ditto the Patriots, Steelers and others.

It sucks, but if the goal is to get ratings, then you have to take that kind of thing into account.

right now 506 has us getting the Saints and Bucs which is kind of dumb because that game is meaningless to us if we win.

Yeah I get that but I'm just tired of watching them. They have been consistently mediocre since 1996. I don't find them exciting or interesting. They get by on name. Every time I see Dallas on the prime time schedule I groan. Not because I hate them, because I just don't care.

      WWE pay per view and programming thread

      Me, I'm sick of WWE channel hopping their PLEs and shows. Netflix now with Raw. USA still has Smackdown but you can't get it with Roku if you don't also have cable. Then they went from all the PLEs on Peacock to ESPN+ which required upgrading your Disney+ package. Then they frikkin' move Saturday Night Main Event with John Cena's retirement match back over to frikkin' Peacock, which we'd just cancelled two months prior because no PLEs there anymore. And there are fewer, but longer matches and its the same danged stories again and again. Rematch after rematch after rematch between PLEs. Fewer matches, fewer wrestlers, more promos (of lesser quality) and less action.  It just seems like it's all fillers and re-runs. I'm tired of Cody Rhodes. I'm tired of Jey Uso. I'm tired of the two Brons. Shuffle the deck a bit guys, this game's getting stale.

      Going for it instead of leading by two scores in the 4th

      Chuba was 3 yards behind the 3 gap. He was lined up weak offset I. It was a 33 dive. Chuba needed to power through off of Ekwonu's block and slip off into the 5 gap where the Tremble had the lane sealed and Rick pulled the LB out of the 5 gap. Here's a visual if you need proof. Chuba did a jump cut laterally to the 2 gap on the right side with unblocked defenders crashing down and went airborne.   This is a 33 dive that should have been slipped off the block into the 5 gap. Chuba lacked vision, but you can see Rico and Bryce staring at the intended running lane sealed off by Tremble and Ekwonu. He should have read Ekwonu's block. The blocking and misdirection is NOT set up for the right side. The play worked. Chuba failed to execute on this play. Trust who you want to, but I wouldn't suggest you argue with the video. Anyone telling you this was drawn up to go right with the blocking did not analyze it. They are correct it should have been a called dive, and it was a called dive.  This was a weak offset I bringing Tremble in motion from the right to the left.
