Should the NFL cancel Thursday Night Football

[Jeremy Igo]

Should the NFL cancel Thursday Night Football at the end of it's current sponsorship cycle? 

No good comes from it. The games are bad. The ratings are low. The teams increase injury risk to their players. 

 

Scrap it.

Probably. Last night was bad.

I think next week's matchup (49ers, Rams) is actually intriguing, but otherwise most games are bad and hurt the players moreso than not.

And, Browns games altogether.

And European games

 

Agreed, too on Thursday nights, too much, is less

No, I love having that extra game during the week. I watched that whole game last night. I don't mind low scoring games with good defense at all.

[toldozer]

Yes but they won't.  They should probably do away with mnf as well.  Keep it all on Sunday.

I think the Thursday night games are showing that you can have too much of a good thing. It's the NFL jumping the shark.

I'm not opposed to Thursday Night Football, but I am opposed to prime time games between bad teams. The slate of games for TNF, and lately for MNF, is pretty bad.

I'd rather there be Saturday Night Football instead of Thursday Night Football honestly.

College football would squash NFL ratings on Saturdays.
