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’m in the UK, so because of timezone issues I usually watch TNF/SNF/MNF in the morning, UK time. It’s one of my little rituals during the NFL season.
I’m also a Bears fan, and absolutely hate watching them. It totally ruins my morning football enjoyment when the game I wait all week to watch is the fucking Bears.
Yessir that’s Bears football 🐻⬇️
If you don’t mind me asking, how did you become a bears fan living in the UK?
So I’m guessing you just watch the game the following morning after it’s already finished? Cause most of those games happen at what? 11pm or so your time?
Yes I watch it while I work around 8-11am UK time.
you knew what you were getting into
I started supporting them around 2008, a couple of years removed from a SB appearance and when Lovie was taking them to the playoffs fairly often.
It’s all been a very fast, downhill slide with no brakes since then.
Man I remember people saying Lovie was the worst possible hire and needed to go.
