I'll take a Thursday Night Game at any of those teams, perhaps a Thanksgiving game at one of them, Sunday Night Football, Monday Night Football or a 4pm EST start time please!! Panthers game will be the least interesting and probably be a 10am pst start bit hopefully an easy win. Steelers have a TV fan base, same with Patriots, Falcons with Cousins could be an interesting game as well.

            I wouldn't be surprised if Ben Herbert convinces Harbo to take the Bolts for a practice or two up to some high school field at Big Bear Lake or Lake Arrowhead to get the players used to playing in the snow: Player slips on icy field and falls down, complains. Herbert: "Deal with it!!!"

              TT strikes again...I sure hope Harbo has a truly FAIR competition at O-line, not based on how much ANY player is earning...if Pip can't cut the mustard at G, he can ride some pine or get traded for a pick...I'd prefer to keep him though for depth, at least this season...

                Actually I was thinking it would be Ravens @ LAC on Thanksgiving weekend and not actual Thanksgiving Day because they could still play-up the whole sibling-rivalry storyline between Jim and John.

                  Don't understand why Henley didn't get much PT so much of last season...

                    Topper, my good man - there's no snow in Big Bear in July or August.

                    Ahem, its snow-where to be found!

                      I think it would have required Staley developing him as an NFL player, thats not his forte.

                      Remember Henley was a fairly recent switch to LB in college ... I did like him in the draft as the third or fourth LB prospect but he was a project and Staley don't do projects. He's a big vision guy like me

                        Agreed. No excuses for the schedule. Granted I do think East coast teams have an inherent advantage as there just aren't a lot of teams on the West Coast. I mean if the AFCN plays the NFCE for their rotation or even the NFCN - they don't travel at all. And there is the whole when you play a team after a bye week, and all that jazz

                        But no excuses - they get the schedule next week - plenty of time to prepare.

                          Actually, if the Bolts play some of those East coast teams in November and especially December, a pretty good chance there's snow up there in Big Bear for a practice to get ready for those games...I'm saying, there's a chance...
                          (And nice pun there on "it's snow-where to be found"...your pun skills are improving...)
