Or it is Packers and Vikings as the NFL loves Rodgers, even during a down year

If that is for the division it may get the nod. But New York vs Rex is a big viewership. But it's NFL all games get massive viewing.

Green Bay and Rodgers looking horrible this week. Doubt they would put them in prime time.

I think it is Vikings vs Packers. People love the Pack and this game is for the North. Who gives a **** about the Bills?

Gives Collinsworth a chance to talk about how the playoffs would suffer without the toughness of big jen in there.

Gotta believe a division title game provides a better showcase for the NFL than a game with one team maybe qualifying for a WC berth, despite whetever East Coast bias exists within the league.

True, but it is New York game (big TV market) and the Jets win, they are in. If Vikings win tonight, they are in as is Green Bay so not as much excitement. I think if Vikings win tonight the flex game is the........................................Jets

Yeah, Minnie is in with a win tonight, but then that just puts the division title up for grabs next week.  The other game features a team that, if some things work out, may get a WC spot versus a team already eliminated.  True, it's the Jets, and Rex is involved, but, I don't think that, if Minnie wins tonight, the NFL and NBC can pass up a division showdown.  Have to believe more people would tune in for a division tilt, albeit it two midwestern teams, than the Jets versus the already-dead Bills.

I retract my last post. Didn't realize pack and viking was for divisional title. So yeah

In fairness, he called them out on the pre-game for their performance today, and to Hines Ward no less, seated right next to him.

Probably because he was so devastated that they lost.

Yes, they announced the game time flex games late in the 4th quarter. I think the Jets and Bills would have been the better game. I have a hunch the Bills beat the Jets putting the Steelers back into the playoffs
