What game is objectively better though?

the Sunday night game, no matter when it would be played....would draw the most eyeballs this week.  

I think Carolina is tied for the 2nd best game of the weekend.  Tied w/ Rams/Cards.

Based on the people involved maybe. But that game itself will probably be lopsided. The Patriots are not good this year. I would not say that will be the best matchup of the weekend.

The Rams vs Cardinals may be a notch better, the Ravens vs Broncos will probably be as equally entertaining as the Panthers vs Cowboys.   The Buccaneers vs Patriots will probably be the most watched this weekend for obvious reasons.

Rams/Cardinals is probably the best, but Tampa is going to smash the Patriots.

They put Buck and Aikman on the best match-ups of the week.  Dallas vs Carolina isn't the best match-up this week, so the second tier announcers get to call this game.

You heard it here folks.  The Jags vs Bengals game is THE best match-up of the week.🤣

I don’t even hate Aikman, he’s not that bright sounding and he’s biased, but Buck is god awful. No charisma and too obviously sounds like he’s trying too hard to put on a voice and play a role. He’s like a bad actor in a good movie, just stands out in the wrong way. 

I could do without Buck.  There is something punchable about him.  I like Aikman.  But sometimes it becomes clear he played in a simpler time.  I think the difference between Aikman and the Manning's jumps out already.  If the QB seems to look at 3 different receivers on a play, Aikman gives the detailed replay analysis that "he found his 3rd read!  Way to go thru your progressions!"  The Manning's look at the play design and defense and know where the ball is designed to go...and can give you the insight that the QB was only looking off defenders with the first 2 so he would have enough room to fit the ball in to his primary target...that he knew would come open because of the initial read.

Aikman actually did this during our game.  And when you went back and watched the film, the QBs feet were aimed right at the primary and the "looking" at other receivers was just to freeze defenders.

    • Sounds like #37 gonna miss the whole road trip.  
    • I didn't realize Robidas is Stankoven sized lol
    • No, but considering that over a third (~35%) of their schedule are the other three teams in the NFC South and all three have strong starting (and back-up) RBs that the offense leans heavily on to open up the pass game. ATL: Bijan has this season and next season before the Falcons have to make a decision on his fifth-year option, Tyler Allgeier is a proven back-up RB that could start for some teams, and 2024 sixth-round selection Jase McClellan returns from a knee injury that sidelined him for the remainder of the season starting in early September. Combine that with their QB situation, and that's a team that is going to lean heavily on the run just like they did last season when they were 8th in the league in rushing attempts, 10th in rushing yards, 8th in rushing TDs, 9th in rushing attempts on 1st down, . NO: Similar situation as ATL, but for different reasons. Derek Carr is in the second to last year of his deal and the QBs behind him are Spencer Rattler, Jake Haener, and Ben DiNucci. However, they also have Alvin Kamara. One thing that we know about Kellen Moore from his stints as an OC is that he likes to lean heavily on a versatile RB1 while bringing in an arguably equally versatile RB2 to keep their foot on opposing defenses. When Moore had Zeke in Dallas, Zeke was 4th in the league in touches during those four years but Pollard still averaged 10 touches and nearly 60yds a game. Look for the Saints to shore up their RB room in the draft with Kendre Miller, CEH, Jordan Mims, and Xazavian Valladay all competing for touches behind Kamara. TB: Bucky Irving exploded onto the scene last season, but we can't forget more than capable (now-)RB2 Rachaad White. White is on the last year of his rookie deal, but Irving is under contract until 2028. Last season, the Bucs were 10th in rushing attempts, 4th in rushing yards, 3rd in YPC, 7th in carries of 20+, 8th in carries of 40+, and 7th in first down rushing attempts and that helped Baker Mayfield be one of the most efficient passers in the league with a 71.4% completion percentage (good enough for 2nd in the league).
