NFL fans, as well as more specifically fantasy football managers, cross your fingers as a vote could make Thursday Night football a more viable and attractive option starting next season.
According to a report in the Sports Business Journal, NFL owners will vote on a new flex plan for Thursday night games during next week's league meeting.
As we all know, the highlighted primetime games have often served up sloppy, low-scoring affairs between bad teams. The flex plan would aim to eliminate games between teams sitting at the bottom of the standings. If the plan receives enough votes, the league would be permitted to shift quality Sunday games to Thursday night.
