        Since we have to play the Pats, it is far better to catch them early...

        ... but if we beat them in the league opener...

        Already excessive expectations (IMO), would rise ten-fold... and that's not a good thing this early in our development.

          And that game would be on the road Gipper. My viewpoint- way to blow a potential away trip. If it happens, great. As I've said before, that's my claim to NFL history fame- I was at the first MNF game.

          Yeah- I'm still of the mind the Pats opener is going to be against the Chiefs....

          My guesses are the Patriots, Rams,and Jets will be the primetime games. (Steelers or Ravens are a possibility too) Cardinals and 49ers away are late games, and depending on how the Browns are doing at the time could well be national games.

              If my consultation with the world time zone map is correct- a night game in USA prime time starts around 2AM in Spain. Howie and the Brits are one hour earlier.   

              But for Cleveland fans who still have day jobs (I'm retired) going to a night game at the stadium means you're probably not going to get home from the game until 1AM or so local time. Sort of a potential problem there.

                Night games begin at 2:30 AM here, indeed. So it takes till 6AM... Worse than the Superbowl which ends 2 hours earlier. 

                Anyway, thanks to that I'll remember forever the Jets-Browns of 2018 in a TNF. I was starting on a new job that Monday, so I could sleep all morning through that Friday, like my brother (who didn't have to attend college that morning, or missed it, don't remember). We both enjoyed being Browns' fans on an epic night, Tyrod getting booed and leaving the field injured, Mayfield starting with some flashes his career, the first victory of my team (many more to come), the change of the mood in an entire city... 

                I was a Spaniard following an American sport a million miles away, watching it in the TV. In the middle of the night, with my brother. And we both can say this: what a night that was.

                  Conversely, what that would do for the confidence of the players and coaching staff would be huge.

                    To coincide with my travel objectives, I am hoping that the Cards game is scheduled for early December, because I would seriously consider going to it...and spending a week in a condo in Sedona either before or after that game.    2d option for that time of year would be SF near which I would have some travel destinations to see.  (but no condo for that trip).  Can;t really do Sept. or Oct. because I am already booked for travel at those times. (Missouri/Wyoming). I think I already mentioned this.

                      Your solution is to go into semi-retirement, like I am doing in about a week.

                        My guesses are the Patriots, Rams,and Jets will be the primetime games. (Steelers or Ravens are a possibility too) Cardinals and 49ers away are late games, and depending on how the Browns are doing at the time could well be national games.

                        Yeah- I'm still of the mind the Pats opener is going to be against the Chiefs....  

                        Makes sense... the NFL loves conference championship rematches to open the season.

                          I would like to see it be that Jets Monday night opener.

                            It even makes sense because the Jets and Giants can't play on the same day....so one of them has to have either a Mon/Thur. game, or play on the road.  Put the Browns/Jets on Monday night.
