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?
Ew
the #MACtion of professional sports
I like that we get to see teams playing that we normally wouldn’t.
Ok but at least we get that early morning electric barnburner Germany game. Let’s see who is playing. 4-5 colts against the lifeless 2-7 pats. Enjoy!
#TNF - Terrible Night Football#
Can both teams win somehow?
It seems like they always involve the AFC South, and I’m here for it
Honestly, I love games like this. I throw a party every year that we call “The Toilet Bowl.” It has no set date, just when two of the worst teams in the league meet, we have too much to drink and have a laugh.
You know, now that you mention it, the party does seems to land on a Thursday every year.
Oh man last years Colts Broncos game was the worst football game I have ever watched in my whole life and I was pleading it would go into overtime. When It did I knew it would be an all timer, I just wish it ended in a tie
Minor league hockey is great. TNF should hire the MST3K guys for commentary.
I’m super into this match-up tonight. I want chaos. I want embarrassment. I want Al Michaels making fun of 2 moribund franchises with no hope and no future. 20 turnovers. Comical interceptions. Fumble pinball.
Put him on the San Jose sharks broadcast instead tonight and if they win do the whole do you believe in miracles thing again
I’m so sick of people bitching about primetime games as if the NFL can perfectly predict who will be fun to watch, or that games can magically be re-scheduled from Sunday to Thursday.
If you actually like football, there will be entertainment in this game. Records don’t matter after kick off
The best part about this game is that it doesn’t even really have tanking implications since the Bears hold both their picks hahaha
It’s tough man I’ve been randomly getting recommended full broadcasts of 90s nfc Monday night football matchups on YouTube. Al is on some of them and is just great. I also think he’s the best Madden gameplay commentator we ever got. Tough that it ends this way
