The NFL's website is stupid.  For Thursday Night Football, there are no games listed on Thanksgiving.  The Thanksgiving PIT-IND game is listed on the http://www.nfl.com/schedules/2016/Sunday Night Football schedule.  The WSH-DAL and MIN-DET games aren't listed on either.

I suppose it comes down to whether you're saying every team is required to appear on "Thursday Night Football," or whether each team is required to play on a Thursday night.

I really didn't put that much thought into it nor do I care that much, but every team must get 1 primetime game that is a rule I know for a fact. And I believe the rule was with the Thursday night thing each team gets 1 Thursday game (can't say for fact but that is what I remember being the new rule.) So if you put a bad team on a Thursday it kills 2 birds with one stone (1 primetime game/1 Thursday game) and I would think they would consider an afternoon Thanksgiving day with no other game as a competition a "primetime game" and it would qualify.

Thinking only 2 Thursday afternoon games are played all year (thanksgiving) common sense is that would qualify as a "Thursday night" game.

The Charges have hired a new HC, it is Anthony Lynn the Bills' OC (and interim HC after Rex's firing).  The Bills hired Panthers DC Sean McDermott as their HC.  Not sure why the Bills would go with another defensive guy to head up the team.

I don't follow that logic.  Judge the man, not choose the opposite of the last guy.  Just because the last D.C you hired didn't work out doesn't mean you should pick an oc this time.

Some retreads work, some don't.

Some Oc work some don't.

Some college coaches work, some don't.

Vance Joseph to be offered the Broncos job today per many reports out there

With the Joseph signing and Wade Phillips contract up, he has moved to the Rams as their defensive coordinator - potentially a great move for LA given the job he has done with Denver, plus with his experience I can see him supporting their young head coach without being a serious threat to taking over his job.
