Bigger fanbases win out over better storyline. I guess.

Good to know, thought it would of been flexed but I am with others and fine with this. I still think I might see the game anyways.

Watch this matchup be the game of the year - or at least the regular season.

Stuck up Neil Page.

I'm surprised we didn't get the game honestly.

However, it's probably a blessing. Jay Morrison put out some grim stats for the Bengals and Sunday Night Football.

3-16 overall
0-4 when flexed

Last win was 04 against the Dolphins. Yuck.

Fine with me!  I don't want to lose any advantage, no matter how slim, and keeping our guys on their normal routine and having the travel East and play at 1 PM EST is a challenge for West Coast teams, historically.

Tbh I associate all of the PT struggles with Marvin.

I could be wrong, but it'll take awhile to prove.

Well we won a primetime game this year over the Jags even if they aren't good. It's something and agree that I also associate
the PT struggles with Marv and Dalton. Dalton also struggled under the bright lights. Think this will change with Burrow.

Taylor also won a Monday night game against the Steelers last year with Finley as the starting QB, hope it is a trend.

Agreed. Marvin was horrible in the big spotlight and in big games. The team never came out prepared or ready to play. 

His lack of discipline and game planning wasn't good when things were different than normal weeks and when the team needed to be more focused.

Well I don't want to get into a Dalton debate, but Dalton actually had a much better rating in Prime Time than Palmer did as a Bengal. So for me, it was all Marvin. After Palmer left, he was fine, and I'm sure Dalton will be fine in PT now as well. If any team actually sticks with him.

Kind of forgot Palmer was also terrible in PT, yeah, has to be on Marv then...

[*Go Cards*]

1:00 pm keeps Bengals on regular schedule and makes the Chargers play at 10:00 am their time.

Not much but will take any edge offered.

If you have the stomach, go look at Boomer Esiason's post season numbers. Yeesh!

Actually the crowd would have been freezing its collective ass off.  South end zone gets cold during those night games.

As most of season ticket holders I know, they don;t prefer to be flexed.. the average young fan tends to like the prime time games more
