Why is Dallas CBS showing Colts-Bengals?

[speedkilz88]

I know its the "best matchup" but with Denver coming to town Thursday it would make much more sense to show their game with the Jets. The Colts game is meaningless to Cowboys fans.

Who wouldn't want to watch Indy-Cincy over Denver beating up on a depleted Jet team? I imagine most Cowboy fans would rather be entertained than fed a bad game with next week's oppponent.

Could be wrong, though.

They'd get killed for playing Denver vs Jets over Indy vs Cinci

 

[speedkilz88]

The nfc east opponents have always been shown over better matchups in Dallas and they never get anyone upset doing that. Games that Cowboys fans have an interest in should be the first criteria.

Hmm watch the hapless pathetic Jets getting smoked by the Broncos or 2 of the best teams in the AFC in a slug fest. Yea what was CBS thinking?

Apparently you are alone with that opinion. Probably why the ratings driven television station opted to go the other way.

 

[SuspectCorner]

uh... could it be that CBS is the network of the AFC? and maybe 'cuz it features the weekends best combined record in a matchup.... looks like a helluva game so far... wassamatta?

If you are watching the Colts Bengals game, you will see the best two teams in the AFC, and worthy of scouting for the future.
