Amazon or another third-party platform would have to step in to give you staggered start times. Even then, it would be tricky because it would require the Amazon subscription. The appeal of FOX/CBS is that they are basic cable networks. As such, there is just no way I see them disrupting the entire back half of their programming. Beyond the programming, the regional aspect of it would make things nightmarish in terms of airing times in multiple regions throughout Sunday.
Amazon or another streaming platform on the other hand wouldn’t have to worry about that. I think it might largely come down to the results of their studies on how viewership might be affected moving to a paid service vs. cable. For the hardcore fans like us in this thread who watch football all day it would make sense and be awesome but for the average fan who only watches their regional team and maybe one of the more prominent teams that gets “America’s game”, not so much. It will be very interesting to see how this plays out.
There other things you mentioned are no-brainers and should have been done already though so it’s hard to think about them budging on bigger issues

2nd year as a full starter so it's in reference to this season
Pretty sure we are all fried since Saturday along with you
Mahomes is also having an all-time season and the Eagles have played a really weak schedule. It’s not being force fed at all.
Fax. Spectacular season.
Couldn’t have said this any better. 2nd round pick is going to have much greater expectations (especially after leading a team to the playoffs last year) than a player who was picked one pick before possibly becoming an in drafted rookie free agent.One of my friends who is an Eagles fan sent me this, and I think it’s a terrible take.
I don’t know why we’re acting like we haven’t been here before. Y’all remember Linsanity? Everyone loves a heartwarming underdog story.
If the media is salivating, it’s likely based on the fact that homey was the last pick in the draft, who had no expectations to even make an NFL team and came in to start and is looking decent. He even has that “I don’t look like I belong here but I’m here” appearance. The headlines write themselves.
Jalen hurts was a five star quarterback who contributed to a National championship from Alabama then went on to damn near win a Heisman at Oklahoma to be rightfully picked five rounds ahead of Purdy.
No one in their lives has ever thought Purdy was good as Hurts. They shouldn’t even be mentioned in the same sentence
The conversation should really be focused on why is the league trying to force feed another Patrick Mahomes MVP when Jalen is clearly balling.
Yea but again the comment was Jalen had to ball and everyone’s salivating over a few good games for Purdy. Hurts was a 2nd round draft pick who was projected to start at some point, did and took his team to the playoffs.
If the Lions win Saturday they go to 8-7 while. The Commies and Hawks fall behind them.
