Ratings are down, players hate it, fans don't enjoy it. Get rid of it. 

It's that time of year that I hate as a Cowboys fan. The dreaded Thursday Night game. This game is usually exclusively on NFL Network, but it looks like it will be on NBC as well this Thursday. I think it's kind of ridiculous the Cowboys play in a Thursday game, when they already play on Thanksgiving each and every year.

Technically the Cowboys don't have a short week since they played last Thursday, so it's a full week like normal. I am sure for the players it just sort of feels like a weird week . A lot of fans, myself included hate when their team plays on Thursday Night Football. The players complain about not getting adequate rest time in between games and honestly no one is watching.

The lack of ratings could be matchups people don't care about, like a Jaguars and Titans game. The current contract for Thursday Night Football ends next season in 2017. I say get rid of it and just do the occasional Saturday Night Football game. Maybe Saturdays past Thanksgiving week only, like they used to.

I'm sure the NFL doesn't want to compete with College Football on Saturdays but, screw it. No one enjoys these Thursday games and they need to go.
