Wait...We are the early game?

checkdanews · Jan 11, 2016

I expected the #1(Panthers) seed to get the prime time game. Plus our game seems much more exciting then Arizona/GB. I just don't get it...Is this just how it always works? Or is this as weird as it feels?

The Packers are probably one of the more popular teams in America.

Oh, and there's a conspiracy to keep the Hawks out of the Super Bowl and we do worse in early games.

I think the Arizona - GB game will end up being entertaining theater. It's going to be a shootout.

It's been scheduled for 2 weeks now.

I'm the first to jump all over the league, but the other game being played is in Denver, which is Mountain time.

It's pretty hard to schedule a 10 am game on Mountain or Pacific, IN those time zones.

That said, I'm not sure why they have to have a 10 am game at all. Why not have a game start at noon, and a game start at 3:30 ? It's the friggin playoffs, there's only 2 games a day.

This what they do for the conference championship games on that Sunday (Noon and 3:30 starts) and all the Saturday games are 1:30 and 4:00 so why not in the divisional round and WC round on Sun? Someone? Anyone?

I know I'm a conspiracy theorist and all but what other logical conclusion outside of having it available to screw a west coast team on start time is there?

The only reason I know its not a consipiracy is because its been those times for many many years.

However, I agree, there is no reason to have it that early. Noon and even 4:30 start would be just fine.

Wait...We are the early game?
