Top 10 Primetime Games Of The 2020 NFL Season. Pt. 2 #5-1

And we back 🙌. Hopefully everyones mothers day was fruitful and fulfilling. If you have the talent of being able give a good gift, woo buddy lemme tell you, I am jeal-ous. Anyways, let's talk some eggball, shall we?.....Top 5, Top 5. I'm sure everyone will agree with these and there will be civility flooding the streets after this.

#5- Week 9- New Orleans Saints at Tampa Bay Buccaneers, Sunday Night Football, NBC. 


 Final matchup of the season for two of the NFL's heavyweights. The two Brady v Brees matchups may very well determine who gets the division title and who's walkin' into a wild card matchup...Last season, goin' outside of that dome gave Ol' Drew the NOODLIEST of arms which quite frankly, ain't great! The facts though, are that he has an incredible supporting cast that can alleviate some of those fears.....unlessssssss...he has to get into a shootout. THAT, could get ugly, and quickly. 

Brady looked worse last year, but it's much easier to chalk that one up to...well, he had absolutely fuckin' no one to throw to. His arm didn't suddenly look 42 and he didn't suddenly become scared in the pocket. He is and still will be, very good. 

It'll be quite interesting to see how this one unfolds given that both rosters and stacked top to bottom with very few holes. 

#4- Week 6- Arizona Cardinals at Dallas Cowboys, Monday Night Football, ESPN.


 Kyler is poised to have a monster year and the Cowboys just gave Dak every weapon on the face of the planet. Kliff going 4 wide against a defense i'm not sure employs 4 CB's could be interesting...Has Mike McCarthy truly evolved as a coach or will he continue to run slants to Amari Cooper until Pat Pete takes one for 6...? We'll just have to find out

Love it or hate it, a Monday Night game in the Jerry dome feels different than any other stadium. It's a real shame we won't have the talents of Booger and Tess on hand. Instead, we'll get some old Cowboys retread and Mike "Mama Mia" Tirico. Yay. 

Is the Cardinals offensive line going to be competent enough to not get Kyler killed this year? Well,,, with almost 50 sacks and no major upgrades on that line...Bold strategy cotton, lets see how it pays off for 'em..


#3- Week 13- Denver Broncos at Kansas City Chiefs, Sunday Night Football, NBC.


 Drew Lock reeled me in last year, I think he's gonna be really good. He has IT, Jeff Van Gundy. The fact that the Broncos brought in Jeudy and Hamler to add to Courtland Sutton and Noah Fant....No team has had speed like that since, oh yeah....The Kansas City Chiefs.

This game is gonna be a fuckin' TRACKMEET. Like watching an Olympic relay race, just fly routes and 60 yard BOMBS. I'll tell ya right now, barring the snow, I WILL be taking the Over in this game. This thing is gonna look like the 2018 MNF Chiefs @ Rams game...It's also an in-division, playoff deciding game in the final weeks of the season. 

This could easily be the game of the year and I will look dumb as hell for having it at number 3....What can ya do..

#2- Week 15- San Francisco 49ers at Dallas Cowboys, Sunday Night Football, NBC.


Or as I prefer to call it, the Terrell Owens invitational. Sorry, Eagles fans.


Both of these teams are gonna be flat out good this year and competing for division titles the whole way through. Say what you want about Jimmy G, have whatever invalid criticisms of Dak you want...both teams have well rounded rosters and do the most important thing in football ...they score points in a hurry.

The amount of pure talent mixed with the implications this game could have on division races, is why it's in the top two. Dome game equals no weather issues and it's two of the most popular and storied franchises on primetime. It could easily end up having the highest ratings of any regular season game. 

Deebo, Aiyuk, Kittle, that running game and defense?...going against Dak, Amari, Gallup, Lamb, Zeke and that O-line? There's about 800 different ways this game could end up going and they'd all be entertaining as hell. 

#1- Week 3- Kansas City Chiefs at Baltimore Ravens, Monday Night Football, ESPN. 


I mean, if you aren't excited for this game, you just simply don't have a soul. If you've ever even heard the word football and aren't excited for this game, I question your integrity as a human. I mean it's the two best football teams in the world going head to head on the biggest stage in regular season sports. 

Waking up and knowing that this game is coming in the months ahead, is what's getting me through the Quarantine. 

The contrasting offenses, the speed, the futures of the league. 

The Over will be taken and the good times will be had.

I swear to god if the season is delayed, imma hurt someone.

Top 10 Primetime Games Of The 2020 NFL Season. Pt. 1 #10-6

3 whole hours...Even without sports, did anyone actually sit through that whole thing? In today's climate where you can just scroll Twitter and get it all at your own discretion? Anyways, the NFL released their schedule along with the primetime games schedule which got me to thinkin'....always a bad sign..but what're gonna be the best primetime games? Awful lotta stinkers on there boy i'll tell ya. Networks got HOE'D.

 I'll drop #10-6 in this blog and the top 5 tomorrow morning.

#10- Week 10- Baltimore Ravens at New England Patriots. Sunday Night Football, NBC

Now, this is a risky one, because if Stidham is complete garbage....this'll be a blowout and the complete opposite of entertaining...BUT...if he's not...it's another opportunity to see the mastermind that is Billy B, try and stop Lamar and the Ravens truly unique offense. Last year? Didn't work so well for 'em, Jim. 

 Both teams will be coming off of relatively easy W's with the Pats playing the Jets the week prior, and the Ravens playing Phillip Rivers AARP Noodle Arm. 

 It'll be the biggest test of Stidham's career, going against a secondary loaded with Earl Thomas, Marlon Humphrey and Marcus Peters. Oh yeah, I almost forgot...he'll also be being rushed by Calais Campbell and Matt Judon. He miiight just be fucked. 

Last time, the Patriots tried spying Lamar with Dont'a Hightower. Listen listen, he's one of the most criminally underrated players in the NFL and i'd argue their defense doesn't work without him (see: Super Bowl 52). *HOWEVA* Lamar treated him like an ACC LB back at Lousville, Hightower  just doesn't have that type of athleticism.

 Ball is in your court, Mr. Bellychick let's see what ya do with it. 

 I really hope Jarrett Stidham doesn't die on Live TV.

#9- Week 8- Tampa Bay Buccaneers @ New York Giants. Monday Night Football, ESPN.

The Giants aren't going to suddenly be great, no...no...absolutely not. They have the tools on offense to be fun though, their O-Line might actually be good for the first time in what feels like decades and they have weapons on offense. Between Evan Engram, Sterling Shepard, Golden Tate, Darius Slayton and Saquon Barkley....if Daniel Jones stinks this year, that's a him problem bubba. 

The reason this makes the list though, is obvious, Tom Brady goin' back and facing his biggest weakness throughout the years with some new threads on. That offense around him is just bananas, Evans-Godwin-Gronk-Howard-Tyler Johnson....They might put up 40 because uh yeeeah that Giants secondary is lookin' awfully porous big fella. A back and forth shootout to round out a nice weekend of football? Why don't mind if I do. 

The Giants do get 11 days to prepare after playing on the previous Thursday night, which should help...but uhhh, Patrick Graham you've got your work cut out for you baby. The Bucs biggest worry is this could be a lookahead game, they've got one of if not their biggest games of the year 6 days later, against division rival and fellow senior citizen QB... The Nawleans Saints. 

Get that popcorn ready because last time Booger and Tess were on the call at Metlife?

#8- Week 11- Arizona Cardinals at Seattle Seahawks. Thursday Night Football, FOX. 

Kyler Murray is going to fucking explode onto the scene this year, and I fully expect this game to have serious divisional and wild card implications. With the 49ers looking firmly in the lead of the division, the race for #2 will be back and forth all year. 

This game is going to be a disaster, one way or another. Both teams have a game, 4 DAYS before this one. Good one, Goodell. Let us pray that both teams can come out healthy because the league is clearly throwing caution to the wind there. 

Both teams are facing good opponents in Week 10 and who the hell know's what kind of football we get as a result of all this chaos. 

Metcalf vs Hopkins
Kyler vs Russ
Isaiah Simmons vs Bobby Wagner

 A shot at the playoffs on the line?

This is what divisional football is all about.

#7- Week 2- Cincinnati Bengals at Cleveland Browns. Thursday Night Football, FOX

Yeah, the Bengals are still going to stink. 

Their offense will be fun though...Burrow has a shit ton of weapons surrounding him and an offensive minded head coach. That offensive line? Well, miiight still need some work. 
This is also the Browns first game where they can show the nation that last year was a fluke and that a seemingly stacked offense can be for real this time. 
Both teams, we can say, uh....struggle in coverage, so seeing a shootout in Joe Burrow's 2nd career game seems very much so like a possibility. I'm gonna say it....I'm gonna say it. I'd like to see it. 

#6- Week 14- Baltimore Ravens at Cleveland Browns. Monday Night Football, ESPN.

Seems like a weird game to be this high, no? Nope. This game is going to decide the division. What the Ravens did last year was incredible and they're still going to be phenomenal, but they were very much so uninjured and had a relatively easy schedule. The Browns on the other hand, had a coach holding them back and a litany of injuries everywhere the eye could see. 

The jury is still out on Baker and this is his year to prove 2018 was real, and that he's an NFL starter. There's no more excuses. Stefanski is a good coach, the front office has their shit together, and the offensive line is better. Use some of those endless chips on your shoulder and show the world somethin' eh?

Both teams with 8+ days to prepare.

A division matchup with a playoff spot on the line.

Monday Night Football.

Holiday season matchup.

Are you kidding me? This game has all the makings of a classic. Don't worry i'll be here to say, I told you so.
