I don't see us getting any prime time games outside of TNF.

I doubt they want to use a 6 win Bengals team.

I see you have us opening with the Colts. They usually are our last preseason game. Any reason for this?

Regional purposes. As I pointed out in another post, PHI @ CLE was a Week #4 preseason game in 2012. 10 days later, PHI @ CLE was also a Week #1 regular season game, so anything is possible.

And that Thursday night game can be an away game, thank you very much.  I want 8 home Sundays that kickoff at 1:00, Roger.

Mock schedule?  Why not just do it alphabetically or draw a line on a map and take the shortest routes? Or just go eenie meenie miney moe?

We will for sure get one. Either midseason MNF or SNF during bye weeks

When does the official schedule come out? After the Super Bowl?

All I remember is that we went like 12 years without a prime time game in the 90's through 2004.

Did we have one when the schedule for 2011 was first announced? Not counting flex?

I don't believe so, but the Bengals have a level of pull now. People want to see AJ Green, they want to see Burfict. One down season isn't gonna kill ratings for them, depending on the team we play. We get primetime with either the Steelers or Ravens

Fair enough. I guess it wouldn't surprise me either way. If we don't start out with one, we'll probably be flexed into one.

We do have some star players and I think a regular season rebound is likely.
