Monday Night Playoff Game

[TWOK11]

Given everyone here is so convinced we’ll lose I’m not sure why any of you care. Is losing on Monday night somehow worse than losing on Saturday or Sunday?

 

[SlammedZero]

Weak sauce!!! Hate this for a playoff game.

On the flip side at least for next week it seems some of our guys could use the extra day.

They don't play well when coming off a rest.

At least we know who we will be playing next if we win. I hope the Boys are ready for primetime.

It gives Tyler Biadasz an extra day of rest so I am fine with it.

Yes, I’d much rather them lose on Saturday so have Sunday to recover or Sunday afternoon and have time to recover, longer wait to avoid the inevitable, game will end late and work the next day

 

[TheMightyVanHalen]

No have to wait all weekend to see them lose and be up late as well..awesome

Since you know they'll lose why stay up and watch it?

Some of you are so ******* weird

Can't they already guarantee Sunday for whoever play mnf. As they said but I'll not take chance

I think the NFC # 1 Seed will play on sunday on fox. I think that is how it goes usually. This stuff is loosely mapped out and I think it only gets adjusted from the way they set it up if the teams are west coast time.

 

[DallasEast]

its pre determined. ESPN had the contract for the NFC's 5 vs 4 matchup Brad Sham said.

That makes it worse. Oh well. Let's see if they can get their act together for MNF, a game this franchise used to shine in consistently decades ago.

 

[jwitten82]

Well Aikman was pretty disappointed he didn't get to call our playoff game last year, so I'm sure he's excited about this one

 

[Dallasfann]

There should be no Monday games in playoffs. Absolute bull****

 

[Staubacher]

Our only hope is Brady in his advancing years starts sundowning in the evenings.

 

[LucaBrasi]

Technically, they will survive opening “weekend”

 

[Alweezy]

The last thing these underachievers need is for the networks to gift them with a Monday Night Football game. Give them an afternoon slot again. Make them feel "disrespected" that the franchise does not deserve a MNF slot. Maybe then they will play like they actually belong in the postseason, unlike the nonsense seen this afternoon at Washington.

This might come alarming, but it could also be the Brady factor too.. people are going to want to see Tom Brady's last football game on primetime.

Yeah no need for any Cowboys fans who believes this is an automatic loss to lose any sleep. They might as well go to sleep on Monday night at a reasonable hour and wake up to see the results they have predetermined are coming.

 

[ChronicCowboy]

Three division games in the first round. What a bore. Our game is easily the most compelling.

 

[Kingofholland]

I’m down! Maybe the one extra day will get some of our key players rested just a tinny bit more! Lets go boyzzzzzz!!!!!!

Alsooooooooo… I know today sucked. We are looking bad. This is where we get to shine baby. Having faith this year is going to work…. I hope

But then we have to go back on the road on a short week, likely playing the Eagles. Yes I'm assuming a victory

 

[PaulieWalnuts]

Can Aikman suit up and Dak take over in the booth?

Its the same amount of rest playing Sunday to Saturday as playing Monday to Sunday

 

[jazzcat22]

Actually we could get a home playoff game. We beat TB
Seattle beat SF, NYG beat Minnesota

Seattle goes to Philly, we host the NYG.
