Tonights game pits the 1-7 Panthers against the 2-7 Bears. I for one am incredibly excited because I believe TNF is about watching bad football.

My favorite TNF game of all time was the WK 14 2013 game pitting an awful Texans squad against my own awful Jaguars. Jaguars would go on to win an incredibly ugly and penalty filled (22 of them) 27-20 with Matt Schaub, Case Keenum, Chad Henne, and MJD putting on a show for a national audience that probably went to bad that night with the same feeling as you would have after going minor league hockey game.

What are some other wonderfully awful TNF Matchups that we can remember?

    I don’t really enjoy bad games, but I do enjoy aggressively bad games. This is an example of just an over the top aggressively bad game so I think it will be fun for all the wrong reasons.

      Also I feel like the TNF halftime team is generally more candid than the typical Sunday commentators. Richard Sherman and TG are pretty much ready to be disgusted and happy to explain exactly why. Fitzpatrick tries to use the “compliment sandwich” technique but sometimes he can’t hold back.
