Nonetheless, as far as I can tell this would be a plausible 2008 schedule, barring any mistypes or overlooks.
Look at the Grid-for-TV-Games worksheet, find your favorite team, and read across. There's a legend below the grid; basically national TV games are in cells with dark background colors, thus white text. Otherwise white, light yellow, and yellow are (all times Eastern) Sunday 1 p.m., Sunday 4:05, and Sunday 4:15 respectively.
If you're too lazy even to follow the link, in my world NBC would get:
Thursday opener: Pittsburgh at New England
1. Indianapolis at Cleveland
2. NY Giants at Philadelphia
3. Tampa Bay at Dallas
4. Indianapolis at Jacksonville
5. San Diego at Pittsburgh
6. Dallas at NY Giants
7. Chicago at Green Bay
8. nothing (World Series)
9. Jacksonville at Tenessee
10. Baltimore at Cleveland Green Bay at Minnesota*
(flex scheduling begins, last seven games tentative placeholders)
11. New England at Indianapolis
12. Seattle at Tampa Bay
13. Minnesota at Tennessee
14. Dallas at Washington
15. Detroit at Green Bay
16. New England at Seattle
17. Cleveland at Pittsburgh
*- accidentally transposed the SNF and MNF color coding that week. I'd fix it on the file available on-line but life is too short
Thanksgiving = JAX@DET (CBS), PHI@DAL (Fox), CIN@CLE (NFLN).
International games = Houston vs. Jacksonville @ London (Week 6, CBS 1p.m. Eastern), Miami vs. Buffalo at Toronto (Week 13, ESPN Monday)
