When the league made, and came out with the regular season schedule, they, and the fans, might’ve had this game circled due to the recent history between these two teams, and the big names involved.

And tonight’s nationally televised game on ESPN would’ve marked the third meeting between these two potential playoff foes who are less than a year removed from a very hard-fought first-round playoff matchup.
