Nah... The NFL likes to give "up and coming" teams prime time.
Even if it backfires and those dark horses don't pan out.

The tinhorns last year got 3 Primetime games (mostly because they were supposed to be AFCS favorites, aside from Houston being a large market)
The DOLPHINS got 4 last year. Bet those were awesome games to watch.......
The skins and raiders got 5 primetime games and those teams were grabbage.

I think the NFL tries to schedule in a way they think will bring competitive and highly rated games.


I'd be surprised if we get 4 or more... but there are certainly possibilities for them.
Pats, Steelers, and Boys are my guesses for primetime games.
Along with the London game being "nationally shown" whether those are streamed or aired early AM Sunday.
