How many prime time games will we get?

I know everyone is amped about the schedule being relased tomarrow afternoon. How many games or which games do you think we will get during prime time hours.

We already have one monday night game set. Vikings.

I am thinking, being a playoff team we will get at least 3 total. Maybe against the Colts or Cowboys.

I could see possibly 1 more primetime game guaranteed and then possibly 2 more with the flex schedule to highlight our playoff run, possibly then against the colts, cowboys or even the texans (as long as we play them in week 14 when we are still undefeated).

so...does Campus Vixen need judges?

I say we have a mid to late October Sunday night game against the Giants

They don't need any judges for the remainder of this contest but starting very soon (next few months) they are going national and they will need help then. I will be sure to keep you posted once I hear something more concrete.

It'll be the third year in a row for a Redskins-Cowboys Monday night game if it happens. Judging by the media's expectations for the Skins this year, I wouldn't anticipate more than the Viking matchup for Monday nights.

I think I read somewhere that per the new agreement, each team would only be allowed one Monday night game per year...so I think we are one and done with the Vikings opener.

But hey, Ive been known to be wrong many times before...

That CAN'T be right.

17 weeks x 2 teams = 34 appearances by 32 teams. Someone gets to go twice.

Re: How many prime time games will we get?

Steelers or colts will likely get to double would be my guess,

Just heard a rumor that we will be playing the Cowboys on Sunday night week #2.

Re: How many prime time games will we get?

you won't get more MNF games because of the new TV contracts every NFL teams is schedulle at least 1 MNF game per season and being that there will be only 17 games ( because of the doubleheader the first week) only 2 teams will get 2 MNF where you could get more primetime games will be in the SNF because of the best game per week during from the 10-15 and 17th week that was realeased those games will be selected 12 days before the game and if there's a matchup worth moving to that time it will be moved.

I think one of our games will get a prime time spot because most people missed the last Monday night game and had gone to bed only to wake up in disbelief.
