The NFL is placating NFC East fans by putting the Red...uh, the Football Team game on CBS opposite Dallas-Philly which is the late afternoon prime matchup on Fox. The reason for this is that if the Red, uh, Washington wins this week, it eliminates both Dallas and Philly from the playoffs which would flatline Fox's ratings had the Red...uh, the Football Team's game still had a noon kickoff on Fox.
So CBS owed Fox a crappy game in return so...here, Fox, take the Bengals-Texans.
If nothing else, Watson usually plays well against the Bagels so Houston could actually win this one. If the current rankings are to be believed, both teams would have their first-round pick among the top six - if O'Bonehead hadn't traded Houston's to the Dolphins.
