Start Times Sunday - The Orange Mane

Vine · 12-28-2012, 08:00 AM

11 AM Houston at Indianapolis

2:25 PM Miami at New England

2:25 PM KC at Denver

I was very sure I checked on this very early this week seeing that Mia/NE was supposed to be a morning game, but apparently it has been switched. That really sucks, because it would have been possible that Denver could have been locked into their seed (with a Hou W and Mia W) before they had started their game.

It was switched so that wouldn't happen

That's fine. I don't want these starters to lose focus and have 3 weeks between meaningful games anyway.

Indy use to do this **** every week 17 and so many years they would lose their timing and rhythm and be 1 and done.

After the Jacksonville loss in '96 I am really against my team taking the last game or last 2 games off when they have the first round bye.

I know that it works both ways, the '09 Colts that took the last 2 weeks off and making the Super Bowl is an example, but when you're on this kind of streak I don't want to screw with this momentum.

I wouldn't have wanted the starters to take the whole game off, but I do think they could have played a half (and maybe 1 series in the 3rd quarter) without losing focus.

DENVERDUI55 · 12-28-2012, 11:06 AM

New England has a lot of 2-2:25 games throughout the year for some reason.

I don't really see what the uproar is about moving the NE game. It was an unfair competitive advantage to Denver.
It's better than moving the DEN game to 11am.

bowtown · 12-28-2012, 03:24 PM

They can pull the starters once Miami is up by 42 at half.

Tombstone RJ · 12-28-2012, 03:34 PM

cbs is complete garbage. no one is going to be watching the Broncos/kc game anyway so they flex the pats game to the afternoon. meh, it's typical bs from cbs.

I would agree but that damn San Francisco game shows how explosive the Pats offense is. Against Miami a 42 point half is possible.

Are both CBS and FOX doing double headers this Sunday?

Not really homey. The major population centers (east coast and upper midwest) are watching the pats/phins game.

The NFL has moved a few games around to keep teams from knowing their fate so they'll have to play their starters. A good move on the NFL's part.

Just win the effing game, worrying about what other teams did to improve your position or make the playoffs was a Shannahan thing and it's for losers.

rideco · 12-30-2012, 07:47 AM

Screw NE I dont care what happens in that game anyway. Colts and Broncos win we are the #1 seed and its over. Truly All I really want is the Broncos to play a mistake free game and people to stay healthy. A bye week and healthy is all I am asking for.
