(RUMOR) Next year MNF: Jets vs Patriots & Thanksgiving: Lions vs Jets

I heard a rumor that they will play MNF games this year.

 

It would be so typical if the Giants got 2 MNF games while the Jets only got one a season after the Giants miss the playoffs and the Jets go to the AFCC.

 

I didn't want to start a thread, but the local paper had the Hilton's 2011 SB odds in the rag today.

Jets are 40-1 while the Panthers are 12-1 and the Texans 20-1, just to name a few.

 

That is pretty funny, being that the Jets beat both of those teams this year.

 

Correct. It's either the Jets or the Pats against the Lions on Thanksgiving. FOX and CBS rotate the Dallas and Detroit games each year. Last year FOX was in Detroit as the Packers visited and CBS was in Dallas as the Raiders visited. Next year it will be CBS in Detroit and FOX in Dallas. That leaves either the Jets or Pats playing in Detroit on Thanksgiving.

 

True fan right here. HA!

 

That would be SICK!
With the opening of the new stadium i can see them doing something like that as a monday nighter.

 

A night home opener with the new place lit up green is what I'd like to see.

 

The last Monday nighter at the Meadowlands was the last one on ABC; the Jets hosted the Patriots on Dec. 26, 2005.

The reason? Mostly logistics related to the new stadium construction which, for example, make it difficult to use satellite parking areas on a weeknight.


Now with the new stadium and more parking available we will see if the Jets or Giants request for a Monday night game this year. In the past they haven't due to the fact there is very little parking and too much traffic during the week.

 

A week 17 MNF game?

 

yea i was wondering that too. It must have been SNF

 

I really hope the New England one is at home. That'd be fucking awesome.

 

That MNF would be epic..Put those Patriots in their place

 

There are only two possibilities for the Lions 2010 Thanksgiving homegame. Them and Dallas rotate who is on CBS and FOX every year. Lions are on CBS in the even years

I am fine with the JETS being put on Thanksgiving against Detroit as long as the NFL doesn`t put the road JET vs. Bears game on Christmas Weekend, us RoadTrippers got screwed the last time we planned to visit Soldier Field when the game was moved to Champange cause of renovation`s going on at Soldier Field

 

If we don't blowout the Lions.... I hate it but I'm getting that SoJ felling again.

 

Since I live on the west coast I dont mind a Lions Jets game, that is the 1000am start for me.. Family doesnt trickle in till 1

 

Same here, I was supposed to go to that one and I'm supposed to go to this one.

 

Yeah, I'm thinking about going to the Bears game as long as it's not December. I'm looking at the Browns and Steelers games as well. I thought about the Lions but Detroit isn't very touristy friendly. Only one hotel (the casino) close to the stadium and you really dont want to venture outside of that four block radius.......:smile:
