Tonights game pits the 1-7 Panthers against the 2-7 Bears. I for one am incredibly excited because I believe TNF is about watching bad football.

My favorite TNF game of all time was the WK 14 2013 game pitting an awful Texans squad against my own awful Jaguars. Jaguars would go on to win an incredibly ugly and penalty filled (22 of them) 27-20 with Matt Schaub, Case Keenum, Chad Henne, and MJD putting on a show for a national audience that probably went to bad that night with the same feeling as you would have after going minor league hockey game.

What are some other wonderfully awful TNF Matchups that we can remember?

It will probably be more enjoyable that when us New Yorkers had to watch the jets - giants game honestly .

Watching HS football is more enjoyable this year than any NY team

If you can't deal with the NFL at it's Panthers-Bearsiest, than ypu don't deserve it at its Chiefs-Eagleiest.

TNF: the trash tv of the NFL

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

As a Bears fan I don't even want to watch this game, let alone have all of America see our miserable team. They need to stop having us on primetime, it's embarrassing lmao

Having said that, a must win for us to pump those #1 pick odds for the Panthers. Let the Shitter Bowl begin

Im legally obligated to watch but for everyone else, run as far and as fast as you can away from this game

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

TNF i find interesting as its normally not so good games or teams that no one would seek out to watch on a sunday so it gives you a chance to watch teams you never really would see otherwise and bad football is better than no football.

It will never not blow my mind that Amazon agreed to pay $1 billion a year for 11 years for the exclusive rights to broadcast games of this caliber.

Stoppable force meets a movable object.

TNF needs to go away. It's sloppy and injury prone. I refuse to watch it, even if my team is playing.

Baker Mayfield breaking the losing streak in Cleveland is the first TNF game I think of

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

As a Bears fan, I am deeply disappointed that one of the two teams will win this game. Praying for a tie.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

My going theory is the league is fucking with Amazon by giving them turd games

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (2 children)

It would be much more interesting if the Bears didn't have the Panthers pick. As it is, there are no stakes. Whatever happens, Bears win.

Bengals at Ravens coming up next week to cleanse your palate

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

You might not like AFC South, Bears, and Broncos overrepresentation on TNF and Raiders, Chargers, Jets on MNF, but that’s just the way it has to be…

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

I have grown to really enjoy TNF for some reason, even moreso when bad teams are involved. I can't explain why, but maybe it's partially because it's sort of like gravy on your week.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

So many adverbs

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Personally I don’t really like watching MNF. I think that’s just because i hate mondays and the week is just starting. TNF is nice on a Friday eve no matter whos playing.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (2 children)

This will either be a 40-37 thriller or a 6-3 slugfest and I can’t decide which

I disagree. TNF is about watching Al Michaels grouse about watching bad football.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

These games tend to be some of the most entertaining ones

Battle of who gives a shit

Extreme sickos game warning. I am so ready

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Also worth noting: tonight’s matchup pits the first overall draft pick Bryce Young against an undrafted QB from a D2 school. Bonus for the narrative: the Bears own the panthers first round pick this year making this an absolute must win game to control one of their losses on their schedule. I’m ready to watch 2 steaming piles of dogshit dookie it out!

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

i have next week circled as my current odds on favorite for game of the year.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Games between two shit teams is much better than watching a great team stomp a bad one

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Avid Bears fan here. I'm prepared for misery and I'm sorry we are inflicting this pain on a national audience.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

The Amazon product isn’t great, and I’ve been saying it since its inception even after this sub dick rode it for a year.

Just put it back on TV…

Minor league hockey is awesome. Arena football is awesome. As a kid my parents couldn’t afford Bears tickets or Blackhawks tickets. So we drove to the Allstate Arena and saw countless Chicago Rush and Chicago Wolves games because tickets were dirt cheap. Some of my favorite memories as a kid. Minor league sports matter and I will not tolerate this slander.

Thursday night television over the past 30 years....

90s: Seinfeld

00's The Office

10's/20's: Crappy football

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Lol when you said bad football, I immediately thought of the Jags years ago.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

I haven't really had a chance to see Bryce Young in the NFL yet. I know he has had a rough rookie year this far, but I am still looking forward to it.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Can't wait to hear what Al Michaels thinks of this game. Can't wait to watch.... oh wait, it's not on TV smh.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Honestly I think they should just have one game every week where they intentionally schedule bad teams to play each other so they can talk smack the entire time. Just give it to the Mannings and let them shit all over them every chance they get

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

If you like watching bad football, you might be interested in tonight's NHL game between the Edmonton Oilers and the San Jose Sharks. Sadly, the Sharks finally managed to win their game in on Tuesday, but it's still a 2-8-1 team versus a 1-10-1 team. (For those that need clarification, the third number is a loss in overtime, which still gives you partial credit).
