This would be my guess as well.
also they have plenty of Bowl games to take its place.

This is right. The Thursday night season opener takes Week 17's game.They only get 17 games.

No, he is referring to the MNF double header in Week 1. Well, at least no more Kornheiser on Monday nights after the upcoming game. Maybe he will get the boot before 2009.

Also note that there is NO Thurs game, no SAT games, and NO SUNDAY NIGHT game! (is this correct?)
Additionally, there are only 3 Sunday afternoon games:
SEA @ AZ 4:15
DEN @ SD 4:15
WAS @ SF 4:15
since AZ has already clinched the division, AZ will know when they start this game if it impacts their #3 or #4 NFC seed.
and DEN will probably be already locked into the #4 AFC seed, so that game could also be a snoozer.
and WAS / SF will probably have no playoff impact.

There will be a Sunday Night game -- they just don't "flex" it until after Sunday on Week 16 to make sure they get the best possible matchup.I'm looking Cowboys-Eagles or Dolphins-Jets

I amended some of my previous post.but IMO, I think it's wrong to have a SNF game on that night. I'd rather see all teams (or almost all teams) play at the same time so there isn't an advantage / or disadvantage to ANY TEAM.

Atricle on NFL.com today noted that the flex had already cost Fox more games than it had cost CBS, so Fins-Jets remains the more likely matchup, assuming it has playoff implications.
Yep, there is no doubt that is the reason, and that makes a lot of sense

My guess is Jets/Dolphins. Battle of 2 teams that had a combined 5 wins I believe last year battling it out for the division title. Minny/NYG and Philly/Dal will probably be flexed to 4:15 games too.
Could be SD/Den if the division is on the line.
