Week 1 Exciting Matchups

  • last year
Transcript
00:00 And now we are on to the regular season.
00:02 So is there a week one matchup that you're really looking forward to circled on your calendar?
00:07 Well, there's a couple games obviously that I think everybody in the NFL is looking forward to.
00:11 Yeah.
00:12 Of course, Collinsworth the other day said what we've said many times for many years.
00:16 If the league could put the Cowboys on national TV in primetime every week,
00:20 Yeah, they would.
00:21 they would.
00:21 And Collinsworth said that about NBC.
00:24 And that's an admission of a sort.
00:27 Yeah.
00:27 If the other teams would go along with it, it would bring more revenue into the NFL.
00:33 And obviously into the Cowboys offers as well.
00:36 So Cowboys at Giants is a marquee game.
00:38 That is the biggest in terms of population fan base in America.
00:43 Right.
00:44 At New York against the biggest fan base, period.
00:48 Not to mention two teams, of course, that were in the playoffs last year.
00:51 Right.
00:52 I think you have to throw bills and jets in this too.
00:54 Absolutely.
00:55 New York on September 11th.
00:57 With, again, the September 11th weekend and the New York fan base thing.
01:04 Yeah.
01:04 Now the Jets fan base hasn't had as much to cheer about.
01:07 Right.
01:08 As the Giants certainly did last year.
01:10 But that is a fan base waiting to happen with the Jets.
01:13 And Aaron Rodgers is there now too.
01:15 They are viewed as being the rejuvenated Jets.
01:19 But in fairness to the Bills, the Bills have won three straight AFC East titles.
01:24 Yeah.
01:25 They have been on the lip of the cup time and time and time again.
01:28 Something the Jets haven't been for years.
01:31 So there's your NFC top matchup, I think, Cowboys-Giants.
01:35 And your AFC top matchup, Bills versus Jets.
