Jags-Titans makes the most sense to be sunday night as it is essentially a playoff game.  Win and you're in.  Yes there would be a slim chance the Jags would have clinched a wild card before it starts but we still need a bunch of help for that.  If the NFL didnt want the Jags/Titans for sunday night, then I could buy the Bengals Ravens if it is for a division title and a home game.  I could also understand a game like Philly/Giants or Chiefs/Raiders as both Philly and KC will likely need to win those games for home field and either could lose so the games may be compelling.

I think last year's game was Chargers-Raiders as it was a true win and in game. 

The thing that gets me is if a team like the Cowboys or Patriots were in our exact situation then it wouldn't even be a debate, it would be the SNF game. But as its Jags-T*tans....suddenly its an issue.
