He's got a point there about health. So, in that sense, they are not good for the league, then again, they make millions off Thursday night games, so ...

While I agree that this week is tough, the turn around, there is another side to it.

The extended week between now and the next game. I am sure there are no complaints about that stretch, albeit, that might be better later in the season than now.

Uh oh, Jordy Nelson is becoming a diva WR now. "boo hoo I need more rest, WAAAAA!". He needs to just shut up and worry about how to come down with those jump balls!


[sarcasm]

I do too when the Packers are playing, especially this one since I won't be able to watch it.

I can understand how he feels. Yeah, it's hard to feel pity for people who are making millions of dollars though. I do like the fact it's at home. I always felt that Detroit and Dallas had nearly a win a year advantage with the turkey day game always at home for them. They're home on the short turn around, the other team has to travel. And then have an extra 3 days to recuperate and prepare for the next game. They have an advantage at both ends of the spectrum versus and normal Sunday to Sunday game. So our case it should work to our advantage.

If they want Thursday games, they should schedule them around bye weeks.

I get what he is saying. I dont blame him for saying it..But he's not doing himself or anyone else any good by saying it to the media. I just hope everyone from the Packers side (including fans) realize that the Bears are playing on a short week too. All of that being said...I hate the fact that there are more and more games on NFLN

I was thinking this earlier today. Why not have the Thursday game after the teams BYE week? That's probably a bitch to plan around though because only what 4-6 teams on a BYE? And trying to get a good match up would be hard.

---

They could also give each team two bye weeks.

I hate Thursday games because my local cable does not cary NFL network and I will not be able to see the game.

Oh wait.....maybe I can....guess I'll just have to look around the Internet for a site that carry's the game.

:-k 🤔 🤔. Where oh where can I go? 🤫
