Last week was officially graded as an “OK” for NFL on TV in the Portland-Metro Area. Will this week be any different? Let’s find out.
Here is what we have coming up for Week 7:
Thursday Night
Chiefs @ Broncos
I am always down to watch Patrick Mahomes play – especially if it is on a Thursday night. The Chiefs offense has sputtered a bit recently – and I am hoping they bounce back after a few losses. Like Tyreek Hill in the gif above – we are saying peace to the boring Thursday Night games we have had so far this year.
CBS Early
Raiders @ Packers
Gross. Jon Gruden and Aaron Rodgers in the same game. Who will the announcers gush over more?
Fox Early
49ers @ Redskins
This is an odd, yet intriguing game. The 49ers have been playing solid football so far this year. The Redskins are trash. This is the kind of game that I like to have on in the background on a Sunday morning while I’m doing other things.
Fox Late
Ravens @ Seahawks
Lamar Jackson is here to save us from another boring Seahawks game!
Sunday Night
Eagles @ Cowboys
I have had a good run of getting Dallas Cowboy football on TV – and we get another game this week. The Cowboys have been so frustrating to watch in the last few weeks – Jason Garrett needs to figure it out or start packing. I’ll be nervous watching this one.
Monday Night
Patriots @ Jets
The Jets looked good last week – they dominated the Cowboys. With Sam Darnold back – maybe this will be a decent game.
Wrap-Up
I am officially grading this as a “Solid” week of NFL action in Portland. I decided to take the grade up a bit – for the first time all season (I think) – we do not have to suffer through a Pittsburgh Steelers game.
