NFL schedule

why play late games in winter? the league scheduling games later in the day is strange. start normal times and keep most of the games with the best possible temps for the players and fans.

you seriously cannot be this dense ....
the league plays night games 3 nights a week all year ... these games are normal times

Why would you play games in the afternoon on the east coast and force games into a morning window on the west coast if it is avoidable? Mid afternoon and evening times ET are ideal for TV and fans to watch.

As long as we are talking about NFL schedules, I like how the AFC Central worked out this year. Practically all of the interdivision games were played in the second half of the season. This added drama and value to the schedule. The NFL should use this model for all divisional schedules going forward.

I like the divisional games being at the end of the year, but I’d rather see some of them in the beginning and some of them at the end not playing five out of your last six games in your division. Whether it be due to injuries or poor record, sometimes those games at the end of the year don’t have the same players that were expected earlier and give for a little easier path for some teams.
