Considering that the Saints end up being the road team every time, no, I don't like them.

hate it - sacrolidge!

Pro Football is played on Sunday. Except MAYBE once a season on Monday.

(Also Two Monday Night games is too many. One I can handle (though don't love it)

If it throws my entire schedule in to a hyper spin - i can't imagine what it does for the players and staff.

It is the worst thing to happen to the game since they added the face mask.

No. Look at the sea chickens. Played Sunday, walk through Monday and Tuesday, fly out Wednesday , play Thursday. Not sure we get the best games on Thursday....just not a fan of em. Seems like a little sloppier. Just my two pennies.

Fast forward ...

Saints play divisional foe CAROLINA on Dec 3. Then days later, Thursday Dec 7th @ Atlanta. I don't like Thursday Night games either.

No, but I no longer like any games that don't involve my Saints

F*** the NFL and their anthem protesting maggots.

I am hoping the tail spin of the falcon continues so this is not a huge game after winning the panthers game.

Re: Saints mailbag: Does anyone like Thursday games?

I would like to see Sunday games early and late afternoon games start an hour later, really hate rushing to watch the game with friends...

Well the Falcons got past the Cowboys, and that, my friend, is a good thing because when we beat those MFers...

...and we will beat them my friend, we'll be a better team for it and the doubters will be scrambling for other excuses...

I hate the TNF. Makes me have to get up in the middle of the night, watch the game and then go straight to work.

Re: Saints mailbag: Does anyone like Thursday games?

I hate them: drawn out longer than other games and end way too late.
I go to the Saints @ Atl game every year, but can't this year without taking off work the next day.
Over-saturation at this point anyway

To me, the league over complicates the schedule and there's no doubt in my mind it's by design for a desired outcome...

The schedule should be very static...

Open the season with division foes, alternating home and away games and the inverse to close the season...

Progress that part of the schedule each year in alternating fashion...

Keep same conference rotation but have those games split after the division games and then prior to the end of season division games...

Play the interconference games in the middle of the season with the current rotation of facing different non-conference divisions each season...

No Thursday night games and eliminate the foreign soil games, bringing back a minor league NFL-E league to develop interests...

And Bye Weeks should only be for the Weeks 7, 8, and 9 and that should be a progressive rotation (Saints seem to get a lot of early bye weeks)...
