Somehow, 80% of the country gets to watch the 0-3 Steelers battle Matt Cassel on a sure to be dreary day and nasty field.

The other match-ups don't jump off the page, but all are far more intriguing than the dirtball game most of the country is stuck with.

As a Vikes fan in Chicago, I wish I had it.

To be fair, the other matchups pretty much all suck and have teams with very limited geographical areas and/or fanbases.

Pittsburgh and Minnesota have the largest national fan bases of any of those teams by far.

All of the games are meh this week. SEA/HOU and DEN/PHI could be decent games.

True, and I'm not surprised. Around here, and I'm sure in many parts of the country, CBS always shows the damn Steelers when in doubt.

The other match-ups just seem far more interesting to me (not that CBS asked for my input). Especially the defending SB Champs against EJ Manuel. The Ohio showdown with a chance to see the Browns upset the 2nd best team in the AFC would even be fun.

The other match-ups actually have an outcome possibility that would be interesting. There's literally nothing that could happen in PIT-MIN that would be mildly interesting. One bad team's coming home 1-3, the other's coming home 0-4. Doesn't really matter which.

Unfortunately we get the NYJ/TEN late game instead of PHI/DEN, ugh
