I think we'd all rather they just play it this weekend, but if they were to swap home games the Jags wouldn't play a game in Jacksonville in September this year and would only play one game in Jacksonville in October.  They'd wind up with 4 out of 5 weeks in December at home.  I'm sure the league is considering this and would opt for the bye week move over the swap if something is to happen.  I'm not sure how the stadium fared during the storm, but assuming the power comes back on for everyone in the next day or so I'd have to believe they're going to play it here at home this weekend.

The bye week move would have the game played in October.  Not ideal, but it seems like the league would probably favor that over the home/away swap.  Not to mention how many people in Nashville have made other plans (boinking their sister, finally getting around to brushing that one tooth they still have, getting their mullett trimmed and looking sharp, etc.) this weekend because the game wasn't originally scheduled there.

EDIT: Just looked and the bye week is the same weekend as the FL/GA game. Ain't happening, folks. I have to believe every effort is made to play the game this weekend assuming the stadium has power and wasn't damaged by the storm.
