The one thing I hate about the Rams game already...

Its absolutely not every single week. Scheduling, while there are certainly logistics involved, isn't THAT complicated.
New York City/metro absolutely deals with “who’s the home team, and how does this affect the local TV schedule” every single week. If the Giants are at home on 1, the Jets are most likely to be a) going somewhere else and playing at a different time; b) on a bye week; or c) their opponent. The Jets are definitely not going to be at home at any point that Sunday, and probably won’t be the home team on any alternate date either unless they burn a home team designation playing in London or Timbuktu or wherever Rog wants an NFL game. This is the foremost drawback to sharing a stadium, and now the NFL’s two largest media markets’ teams all do it.


I'm not saying it's a huge deal, but giving the Rams a late game slot when that's not a customary thing for West coast teams is at minimum a questionable thing, and at worst blatant favoritism for the Rams, who have historically gotten friendly calls when playing the Saints.

I'm not sure it affects the game, and hopefully it doesn't, but it's definitely a head-scratcher.
I hope it doesn’t impact the game either but the more devious thing to do is to play the west coast team traveling east in the early kick slots, especially now that bindings by division are less strenuous.

All told, I’m struggling to get to the conclusion of “the NFL is wrong for what it did to the Saints” here.
