    Does anyone know or understand how the Thursday Night game is picked? I know CBS gets the AFC, FOX he NFC and Sunday night football goes to NBC (who I thought got first pick) but where does MNF and especially Thursday Night Football fall in this pecking order? I ask because tonight's game seems uncharacteristically interesting.

      They bid before the season? Is flex scheduling only for the sunday night game?

      As far as which network gets which games, yes, the bidding is done years in advance.

       

      The schedule is set months before the season starts so the Monday Night and Thursday Night games are set then.  The Sunday Night games are also set at that time but the do get some flex options later in the season (but only from Sunday afternoon to Sunday night).

      Regarding the individual matchups on each night, with FOX throwing more money to the NFL for the Thursday night package (starting this year), the NFL rewarded them with more appealing matchups.  Sunday night football tries to get the best match-up each week on NBC, but CBS and Fox can try to protect certain games for their afternoon blocks.  Monday Night Football on ESPN has pretty much turned into an afterthought in terms of the quality of game.
