Prime time games will always suck a bit for those that like to get bed early. Living on the west coast definitely is a cheat code for prime time games. They have to wait for us to get home from work before the games start. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But it does give me quite time before my wife gets up, so I go hang out in my home office, watch pregame stuff, check fantasy football lineups.

Besides, the play us after a long rest following thanksgiving if I'm not mistaken. Yeah, but the NFL gave the Cowboys the Eagles at home for the 3rd road game in a row near the end of the season. I’m used to them always giving them some scheduling advantages lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Once again I like my sleep. 🤷♂️ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheRealMcCoy Posted May 12, 2023 Share Posted May 12, 2023 Cowboys are CST and not EST, but they have only 2 early games (12 pm) this year. I feel like with the NFL getting rid of the rule that every team needs a prime time game that it means even more that if your team is pretty popular and good that they won’t be playing much in the early slate of games. The NFL wants eyes on those types of teams and less eyes are on specific games at that time. So, if y’all want the Eagles to play at 1 pm EST, then I guess you better start praying on their downfall lol. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d have an alarm set and make some coffee. Love the draft. The bigger problem isn’t really waking up at 10 am since I’m always up for games regardless if the Eagles are playing then, but paying that high price for Sunday Ticket only to miss most of the games when they play at 10 am.

I'd be pissed if I had to watch a game at like 10am. On top of the fact you don't live anywhere near the stadium so you can't even attend unless you make a vacation out of it. Feel bad for all the Eagle fans no where near the stadium I'm too much a diehard to move away from the stadiums. I'll be here for the rest of my life lol Edited May 12, 2023 by EaglesFlySBChampsHigh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like to get stuff done early and not have to wait till later on. And yeah I live like 5-6 hours away near Pittsburgh so that's a little mini vacation for me lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get everything done and enjoy football the rest of the day. 5-6 hours is better then a plane ride especially a 6+ hour one. I'd count that as a win Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EagleBlueDon Posted May 13, 2023 Share Posted May 13, 2023 I'm seeing the game against the Seahawks being penciled in mostly as a loss. I just can't see this team losing to Geno Smith. The roster is good but I just can't see Geno keeping pace with our offense and Geno continuing to be a great passer, especially downfield.

Plus we always lose to the seahawks. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Idk the Geno thing trumps all of that other stuff for me. We always lost to Russ. Dude was different. Geno isn't a guy I see us losing to, regardless of circumstances.
