Your Full 2009 Primetime NFL Schedule

Tuesday, April 14, 2009


The NFL released the 2009 Schedule at 7pm tonight, so I thought I'd take the time to post the primetime games for you. As far as the numbers go....Pittsburgh, Indy, Chicago, Dallas and New York all have five games in the 8 o'clock slot, and the Patriots, Cowboys and Titans all have four. The only teams with out one are the following....Kansas City, Cincinnati, Detroit, St. Louis, Seattle and Tampa Bay.

For the most part, the teams you expect to be below are there, but with a few surprises. Namely the Saints getting three and the Panthers NOT getting more than three. With that said, here are the primetime games, and you can head to NFL.com for the complete list...

Is MNF the unofficial home for divisional games? They have 12 division games out of 17!

But right now this looks like one of their stronger schedules in a long time.....so far.

Week 1: Titans-Steelers is on NBC. The Monday night doubleheader is an AFL Throwback, uniforms and all.

Week 13: Jets-Bills is in Toronto.

That Titans-Steelers game is on NBC IIRC...and all the SNF games start at 8:20 ET/5:20 PT.

Wow, good catch, JC. I completely missed that one.

And I agree with SSR that upon as of now, this MNF line-up for ESPN is their best so far, beating out last year's.

AA, you digging the Skins' soft schedule? As long as they stay relatively healthy, there are 10 wins in that thing.

The Dolphins may not be that sexy of a selection (as even WQAM's Jim Mandich mentioned) but for those of us who appreciate well-played football, they're excellent. I fully expect Miami to ensue in their progression as a contender in the AFC. Hopefully the Broncos surprise pretty much everyone. That Colts-Cards game is a gem!
