Not a Pats fan at all, but the Jags have no chance. The only team that can beat the Pats is Seattle.

What exactly is the problem with them playing on Saturday? maybe I'm misreading this and you have to work or something and are personally dissapointed, but it seems like you're saying that 1. Playing on Saturday is somehow less prestigious than Sunday, and 2. The Patriots having the best record/team coming in should be showcased on Sunday.

The networks run the schedule, and figure that most fans will be watching on Sunday, but that the Pats have drawn amazing ratings all year and would help out more with the Saturday game ratings. I'm guessing here.

Wait, did Washington state send two Seattle teams to the playoffs that I didn't know about, because you can't possibly be talking about the Seahawks?????

Do they really? I'd have thought since most "hit" shows play during the week that the viewership is down during the weekend.
