Damn. I love watching that train wreck.

Me too. Would have loved to see Mr. I'm Limited get embarrassed on prime time once again.

Broncos flexed out of Sunday Night Football game against the Chiefs

People have seen enough of the Broncos on primetime television.

You gotta read the comments. I doubt even 1992 hawk fans were this pissed. I’d say no one feels more betrayed than these Denver fans.

The article mentions this but, it’s worth restating.

How bad are you that the league takes the Chiefs and front runner for MVP (Mahomes) off the prime time schedule?

That’s crazy!

That’s funny. If they did run the game there would be good viewership in Kansas City , Washington state and nowhere else!

Thanks, Smith. By far the best laugh of the day so far. Nice one.

I think much of the nation is actually fascinated by RW's struggles in Denver and that this game would have been well-watched had it been televised nationally. Despite the near certantity that Denver will emerge from this game with an L, everyone wants to see the NFL's highest-paid QB not named Rodgers do all the things richly compensated QBs aren't supposed to do: incompletions, interceptions, sacks, QB hits, tipped passes, bad audibles, false starts, delays of game, three-and-outs, etc.

Though of course, the league would rather not put such football ineptitude on national display if they can help it, they want their product to look good.

Big shot to even a bigger ego...

You hate to see it....oh who am I kidding? I'm loving it.

 

[The Dirty Dozen Fan]

I would want to watch a Chiefs game 95% of the time but NBC probably looked back at the 12-11 win over the Niners and said NAH ! NOT AGAIN !

That’s funny. If they did run the game there would be good viewership in Kansas City , Washington state and nowhere else!

Colorado also, because fans like to be tortured almost as much as we like to win.

This Sundays snf is Indy and Dallas, an equally unwatchable product. God help the nfl if they shifted a game with DalASS into an afternoon slot where it’d get tagged as the default game that over 70 percent of the country is stuck with.

Come on now, the Broncs chiefs is More amusing.

 

[AROS]

Meh, everyone likes a good train wreck. Shoulda kept it.

 

[RiverDog]

I would have liked to see the Broncos-Chiefs, too. But it shouldn't surprise anyone that they flexed out of it. The league wants to feature two teams both competing for a playoff spot, and both the Chargers and Fins fit that bill.

There are several other SNF games that might be flexed, depending on who they can replace them with. Patriots-Raiders are currently scheduled for SNF in Week 15, Rams-Chargers in Week 17.

I think secretly, people all over the US want to see RW flame out.

Kind of like looking at the scene of an accident.

I cannot remember the last time a Dallas game was not broadcasted in my area. Even if they are not on primetime, literally every single game of theirs is on my local Fox or CBS affiliate. I'm wondering if it's because I live near Philly and they are a division rival. Then again, I dont get every Giants game. Is this the case with you guys on the West Coast? Do you get every single Dallas game even if you don't have DIRECTV etc? I mean it's just disgusting how this team is shoved down our throats, even when they suck. They are actually good this year, so forget about it!
