Cowboys vs Bucs flexed to Sunday Night **merged**

[jrumann59]

it looks like this year I get to see all but 1 cowboys game here in Baltimore metro area.

I think all of this added attention and an entire month's worth of prime time, playoff atmosphere football games to end the season will get our young guns ready for the real playoffs.

5 straight nationally televised games dating back to Thanksgiving.

How much you want to bet Mara blows a gasket over this.

 

[RoboQB]

Why? Don't they have DVRS on the left coast?

I bet the DVR is loaded up with The Kardashians episodes.... lol... j/k

 

[cowboys1981]

I want our team getting climatize to prime time so they feel right at home once playoffs start.

 

[ifixoldhouses]

Every game this year I could watch except one just on my antenna. Cord cutting this year has been great for me.

I've only had to watch two on the computer all year long.

 

[FLcowboy]

At least I know I'll get to watch it now, but work is gonna suck in the morning.

Yeah, Eastern time zone fans get the late night games, but what really upsets me is having purchased the NFL package on Directv to watch the Cowboys and now the game is free.

 

[CCBoy]

First, just beat the Giants...then start dreaming.

 

[ErikWilliamsHeadSlap]

Awww...the Steelers just cant pull them viewers anymore?

Never been a problem here.

 

[sbark]

Wait till next year also...........Cowboys on the rise with young players, one of very few teams that can still pull TV rateings.........the NFL is looking at our home/away sched next year and trying to figure out how to maximize exposure.............I'm afraid they are going to have to insult a good number of other teams, or just pass on revenue.

Of course Monday is the day I get to work really early.

Yay.

So in 2014 I had just moved to Houston, and that was the game where Romo juked out JJ Watt for a TD and the Cowboys won.

This year, I moved to Tampa and we are also having a great season. What I've learned:

• For the Cowboys to be successful, I need to live outside of Dallas (last year I moved back home for a year).
• When I'm out of town, we beat the home team where I live
• I need to start getting paid by the organization for being a good luck charm.

People on the west coast hate 10am kickoffs...

This one doesn't, love the early kick offs. We're contemplating a move to Hawaii, 700am baby.

It will definitely be a playoff atmosphere. The stadium will be rocking, and @theebs is going to come tailgate with us. Come Oooon. Do it!

this is a good thing. Crowd should be great.

4 straight primetime night games.

America - and the networks - love their Cowboys. I assume FOX is pissed.

 

[links18]

Bucs are everyone's new darlings. They'll be the real test.

 

[Jarv]

It flexed networks, otherwise Fox may have moved it to their 4:25 EST game, which is what I wished had happened.

not really, it means more money in his pocket

they love the Cowboys when we make them money

 

[tyke1doe]

And we follow a month long stretch of night games, the last one on a Monday, by traveling to Filthy for a 1:00 kickoff week 17.

That likely will be a flexed game to 4 p.m. if we don't wrap up home field advantage, which we should do by Week 17.
