Can you explain this than?

Of course.  Jets and Giants fans on the forum don't getting offended easily like you do.
Your so right, I am offended not because a team decided to move the suburbs, but because everyone (not just on here) is making fun of them for it, I am sick and tired of it, worse than I was with 6 7. No one was mad when the Clippers moved from Staples Center (I mean crypto.com Arena) to Intuit Dome.

What do you have going on in your life besides following professional sports?  That's an actual question, do you have hobbies or activities you enjoy?  This sports stuff seems to be all you want to talk about this forum.  The amount of ranting you have gone into over the "Indiana Bears" seems to me as being pretty unhealthy.

According to the week 4 posting by 506 Sports, the DFW area will be getting the Denver @ San Francisco game while most of the surrounding area will be getting the Kansas City @ Las Vegas. I can guess why... San Francisco is a major rival to the Cowboys. However, while the 3-0 San Francisco is facing 2-1 Denver, both Kansas City and Las Vegas are 3-0 teams going against each other. Ah well, I'll just watch the highlight reel.

It certainly beats the 0-3 Dolphins facing the 3-0 Vikings as a late game in certain areas on Fox.

I think they're giving us more Steelers games in this market the last 2 years because Aaron Rodgers.
Worked out last week as that Pittsburgh-Cincy game was very entertaining.

As for Green Bay, I think this is a last place team this year.
Have fun, Bears and Vikes and Lions.  You've been waiting for this for decades. :ded:

Thank god CBS has the doubleheader this week, or else those of us in MN would be stuck with that game unopposed. Even if I was a Vikings fan I'd rather watch DEN/SF or LV/KC. We get DEN/SF.

If Deshaun Watson somehow delivers a Vince Lombardi trophy to Cleveland, then the owners Haslam will have made the deal of the century, and my Texans would be on the wrong side of the deal, Deshaun would be the greatest sportsman in Ohio history.  This year he would have been gunning for his second Super Bowl championship had it not been for the ill-advised botched fake punt in the 2020 AFC Divisional Game at Arrowhead.

Speaking of my team, the Texans have no chance to match the 12-5 record from last year; the best we can hope for now is 11-6, and even that is highly improbable.  For the first time in years I'm beginning to miss Deshaun as our team's QB,

We're roughly a quarter of the way through the season and a quarter of the AFC has not won a game yet???

Have to think that's some sort of record to have four winless teams in a single conference this late in the season.

Ironically, the Texans are at the Titans next Sunday, and both are 0-4. I wonder if CBS will force the DFW market to watch that game because they are a Texas team and faced the Dallas Cowboys yesterday. And, since Fox has the double-header, it's a sure bet that they will carry the 49ers at Seahawks game as the Fox late game mostly nationwide. As for the early game, I would not be surprised if it was the Giants at Commandos as both are NFC East teams for the DFW Market. We'll see on Wednesday when 506 Sports posts the maps.

Only one team who started the season 0-4, the 1992 San Diego Chargers, actually turned around and got into the playoffs winning the AFC West division title.

I don't think either of those teams have a chance at the playoffs. The Jags are very clearly the best team in that division, and sometimes it's easier to make the playoffs as a division winner than it is as a wild card.

The Texans biggest issue is they can't hold on to a fourth quarter lead; they have the lead at the last minute and find ways to lose a winning situation game after game; that's been the story of the Texans' existence.  Since 2024, their average margin of regular season loss was by five points.

In the Chicago market, the networks consistently feed us Steelers games even when the Colts are an alternative. I get that the Steelers have a national following, but a good chunk of Indiana is in the Chicago market. I feel like they're deliberately trying to get people to buy Sunday Ticket rather than show the game that people actually want.

I was right on both Fox games per https://506sports.com/nfl.php?yr=2026&wk=5 . While most of Texas will get the Texans game, Dallas will get the Indianapolis @ Pittsburgh game while El Paso gets the Las Vegas @ New England. The 49ers is practically a national game with the exception of Arizona and Michigan.

Right.... how many times have we seen the number four division winner in both conferences have a worse record than the wild card teams? Many times.

Now, someone find two forks, stick it in the Titans and Texans, and declare them done for the season. Even the Weather Channel Is Making Fun Of Texans vs. Titans Matchup.

It's early to start thinking about forks, but I am comfortable forking three of the five winless teams: Titans and Dolphins in the AFC and Bucs in the NFC. I'm also forking the Cardinals because even though they have a win, they have basically no shot at a division title and the NFC wild card race looks very competitive.

I'm leaving the Texans and Chargers alive for now, but since there are 14 weeks left in the season and 14 more teams that will miss the playoffs, I'm thinking of forking one team per week for the remainder of the season.

ZLoth

The good thing about the Dolphins is that none of their games this season are prime time games.
