well, a network televised national game would have a different revenue model then a sunday afternoon 1pm game. For example, Fox is not paying 500million to broadcast 11 random matchups at 1pm Sunday.

edit: just read your followup to Matty's. A double header Monday would probably have the same draw as the Thursday night. But would Fox (for example) pay 500Million for 11 matchups on early Monday when half the nation might still be at work, or a later game for the west coast where the east coast markets have gone to bed? Maybe. I think thats what the NFL was trying to find out with the opening week double headers on Monday Night, but I don't think they have said any specific results.

As for Sunday, pretty hard to see any time slot except early am, for a broadcaster to pay 500Million for.
