There are 13 football games today

It’s possible that you’re not prepared for some football. Maybe your rowdy friends are coming over, maybe not.

In any case, today features 13 NFL preseason games. Thirteen.

It’s a lot of games for one day, aside from the triskaidekaphobia issue. Particularly considering that there was just one on Thursday, zero on Friday, and two on Sunday.

The NFL is leaving a lot on the table by scheduling so many games in a single day, even though the league would love to (and unavoidably will) replace all preseason games with regular-season games. There would have been a good turnout for a Friday night prime game.

Sunday at 8:00 p.m. Fox has a game, at least. me. (Saints-49ers) ET. That day’s lone other game, though, also begins at 8:00 p.m. me. Packers vs. Broncos, NFL Network, 2:00 p.m.

The final game of the day begins at noon ET and lasts for ten hours. At noon, it’s Falcons vs. Ravens. m. Bengals vs. Bears, ET, 1:00 p.m. me. ET, Giants vs. Texans at 1:00 p.m. me. at 4:00 p.m. ET, Lions-Chiefs. m. ET, with the Vikings taking on the Browns at 4:25 p.m. M. Six games begin at 7:00 p.m. ET. m. Technically, the games start at 7:05 p.m. ET (Jets-Panthers, Cardinals-Colts, Commanders-Dolphins, Bills-Steelers, Rams-Chargers). me. ET), followed by Cowboys-Raiders at 10:00 p.m. M. ET.

It could have been distributed a bit more. which would have attracted more viewers, viewers’ ratings, and revenue.

Better things will happen next weekend: two on Thursday, three on Friday, eight on Saturday, and three on Sunday. After that, the preseason will come to an end with the final countdowns for the September 5 Ravens vs. Chiefs game, the September 6 Packers vs. Eagles game, and the September 8 first full Sunday of the 2024 regular season.
