End of 3rd quarter of season

[zyxt9]

The 3rd quarter was projected by most to play out exactly as it did, now onto the 4th.

I contend the Lions need to go 4-0 down the stretch. There is a very small chance they could miss the playoffs if they lose a single game, but even then they are probably looking at a WC instead of division winner game, possibly even a BYE.

Maybe the hope lies in playing @CHI the week before playing @GB, thereby having an easier opponent whom they recently beat relatively easily in the December elements so they have that experience to build on prior to the @GB. That said, I'm projecting now for that game to be moved to a later than 1pm start which could mean even worse weather, but there seriously is not projecting to be a better/more important individual game that week.

Regardless of Pats v Pack result, Lions really need to win out and, finally, get that fucking Lambeau losing streak to end.

Well there is no night game the final week of the regular season so it will stay a 1 pm game.

They could push it to a 4:25 start as the 'Game of the Week' usually is.... but I thought the NFL purposefully left the night slot open and reserved the right to fill it by Tuesday prior, which is an exception that the Networks agreed to as well. Maybe I'm not recalling that correctly from prior thread about flex scheduling.

Here it is...

Mentions Week 17 specifically is a 6 day notice in order to schedule game with playoff consequences.

I really hope they keep the game at 1 pm.
