I see a lot of old man moaning on here. That’s OK, I am often guilty myself. There’s been plenty of good SNF games. Especially given the advantage flex scheduling gives that time slot.

2010 or now, it’s a dumb list and the usual tortured logic applies. Cowboys-Redskins ruled out because of relevance in 2010. OK, but Browns-Bengals was somehow relevant at the time? Please.
