NFL to have Saturday games if there is no college football

Not that I got any love for the shield but this seems like a win win to me. NFL gets to pick up extra revenue, fans get something to cover the lack of college football, players aren't asked to play any more games than usual, where's the downs.....

*narrows eyes*

wait a minute...

If there aren't any more games than usual, but they are putting a bunch of them on Saturday instead of Sunday, then that means there will just be national tv audiences for games that wouldn't normally have them...

So instead of the whole country watching Alabama, Clemson and Ohio State on Saturday, the whole country is watching the Browns play the Bungles, the Dolphins vs Jets and the Redskins vs the Lions. And we'll all watch anyway cause we're desperate. And the NFL makes even more money somehow for inflicting this upon us.

@#%ing coronavirus.

Just give me a big bowl of Ebola Zaire and let's get it over with.

If they move the college season to the spring how are they going to do the draft next year?  Just move the day or still have it the same time the season is going on and have no combine?  And once the guys get drafted from teams that aren't going to the college football playoff, how many of them say f this and just quit playing until they have to report to their NFL teams OTA or training camp?

I just see problems with this.

I would love it. I wouldn’t have to work hungover on Monday due to tailgating on Sunday and going to the games.

I think there would still be Sunday games, but instead of a bunch of games overlapping, they would move some of them to Saturday so everyone can watch more individual games. At least that was my understanding of the scenario

If you don't watch Redskins vs Lions, you are going to miss a rookie QB getting his first win and taking selfies on the sidelines with fans instead of finishing the game. LOL

I have always wanted NFL games moved to Saturday anyways but I don't see it happening. I think both will be played just without fans for the same reason, that TV revenue is just to much to turn away from. With all of the changes that colleges are staring at from the fallout of this virus I would think they want to keep something the same and the sports programs are a nice stable block to build around, high demand and easy support. Getting kids back on campus after they learn they can do the same stuff remotely and not be charged like a visit to Disney will be a real challenge.

The Thursday games need to be moved to Saturday anyway

It's not legal for the NFL to play on Saturday while college season is going.  Same for Fridays while HS Football is going.  It's why we have games on Mondays and Thursday.

      Bryce Young for Trevor Lawrence

      I'd rather figure out a way to get Howell from Seattle.  I think he would do really well in Canales offense.  I also think Howell would do great with this offensive line. Thoughts?

      Andy Dalton is a top 5 QB so far

      30 points a game. People were hoping to get 17-21 with Young at Qb. This week will be a tougher defense sure would be nice to eat off their plate.
