    Glad they have this scheduling flexibility. Remember the Oilers going 12-4, trading Warren Moon, then getting their asses whooped on MNF like four times that year.

    Exactly what the networks are facing this year with the Colts.

    One thing is for sure... the Texans will get a SNF game next year.

    At what point do they consider flexing out Philadelphia for the rest of the year?

    They really need to fix the primetime scheduling to be more flexible overall. This year has been pathetic.

    Just a matter of time till that happens.

    The NFL, as well as fantasy football, has become such a monster that essentially ALL games are watched by a lot of the nation every week... so swapping bad games out for good ones really doesn't create as much controversy as in days past.

    Also, good games get good ratings... bad games get bad ratings. Doesn't matter how many superstars are playing, or how big the media market is in those games.

    San Fran is showing a lot of people right now what they've been missing... their defense looks legit. Guess who their DC is?

    whenever I hear the name "Hakeem Nicks", I think of a glorious time in Rockets history.
