NFL Thursday Night Football Odds & 2024 Schedule

Last Updated: Aug 1, 2024

The 2024 NFL season is nearly here, so there’s no better time to start breaking down the primetime games that will captivate us all.

The Thursday Night Football schedule looks loaded for Year 3 on Amazon Prime after an encouraging 2023 campaign that produced a ratings jump of nearly 25%. Al Michaels and Kirk Herbstreit will continue on the commentary while Kaylee Hartung patrols the sidelines.

Let’s examine the 2024 Thursday Night Football schedule and try to make sense of the odds for each matchup.

Thursday Night Football Schedule 2024

Week 2: Buffalo Bills vs Miami Dolphins

The 2024 Thursday Night Football schedule technically kicks off in Week 2, as NBC has the rights to the season opener between the Chiefs and Ravens.

Still, Amazon should be pretty stoked to get this early-season AFC East rivalry game that features two of the top quarterbacks in our NFL QB rankings.

If you’re looking for an early lean, I’d ride with Tua Tagovailoa and the Dolphins at home in what could be a hot night in Miami.

Week 3: New England Patriots vs New York Jets

TNF Week 3 features another AFC East clash as Aaron Rodgers and the New York Jets will host the new-look New England Patriots in their home opener at MetLife Stadium.

Assuming Rodgers escapes the opening two weeks unscathed, the atmosphere for this contest should be electric.

Week 4: Dallas Cowboys vs New York Giants

TNF will host back-to-back games at MetLife Stadium as the New York Giants will take on the Dallas Cowboys in an NFC East rivalry game.

After losing two games to Dallas last season by a combined score of 89-17, New York will be hoping for better this time around.

Week 5: Tampa Bay Buccaneers vs Atlanta Falcons

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers will visit the Atlanta Falcons in this Week 5 matchup, which could be a marker for how the NFC South plays out this season.

Let’s see if Kirk Cousins’ primetime woes continue with his new team.

Week 6: San Francisco 49ers vs Seattle Seahawks

The 12th Man on Thursday Night Football against the rival 49ers? Sign me up.

Seattle should be amped up for this game after losing both regular-season meetings against San Francisco last season by double digits.

Week 7: Denver Broncos vs New Orleans Saints

Thursday Night Football is known to have some clunkers, and this could very well be one of them.

Here’s to hoping fans in The Big Easy have something to cheer about.

Week 8: Minnesota Vikings vs Los Angeles Rams

There’s plenty of wide receiver talent to admire in this TNF contest, with Justin Jefferson and Jordan Addison going toe-to-toe with Cooper Kupp and Puka Nacua.

I wouldn’t want to be lining up in the secondary for this one.

Week 9: Houston Texans vs New York Jets

What thrills will we witness on Halloween night?

If all goes to plan, this mid-season showdown between C.J. Stroud and Aaron Rodgers will be can’t-miss TV.

Week 10: Cincinnati Bengals vs Baltimore Ravens

Matchups between Joe Burrow and Lamar Jackson have been electric when they’ve both been healthy.

Let’s hope that’s the case for this Week 10 TNF matchup.

Week 11: Washington Commanders vs Philadelphia Eagles

Primetime viewers will get a second look at Commanders rookie QB Jayden Daniels, who will feature on Monday Night Football in Week 3.

This matchup against a much-improved Eagles defense should tell us a lot about the Heisman Trophy winner’s progression in Year 1.

Week 12: Pittsburgh Steelers vs Cleveland Browns

These AFC North rivals split their season series last year, with the home team winning both games.

Will Russell Wilson (or maybe Justin Fields) have what it takes to down Cleveland in front of the Dawg Pound?

Week 13: Las Vegas Raiders vs Kansas City Chiefs

This game looks like a mismatch on paper, but it’s easy to forget that the Raiders stunned the Chiefs in Kansas City on Christmas Day 2023.

Could the Silver and Black pull off another surprise on this Black Friday special?

Week 14: Green Bay Packers vs Detroit Lions

The NFL has made a habit of handing TNF games to teams the week after they play on Thanksgiving Day.

That is the case again here for these historic NFC North rivals, who could be playing for pole position in the division in Week 14.

Week 15: Los Angeles Rams vs San Francisco 49ers

49ers HC Kyle Shanahan has gotten the better of Rams counterpart Sean McVay in recent years, leading San Francisco to victory in nine of its last 11 games against its NFC West rival.

Another win for the hosts on a short week wouldn’t be all that surprising.

Week 16: Cleveland Browns vs Cincinnati Bengals

TNF Week 16 will provide a barrage of orange when these two AFC North rivals meet in Cincinnati.

Entering the season, the home team has won the last five meetings between these two teams, which bodes well for Burrow and the Bengals.

Week 17: Seattle Seahawks vs Chicago Bears

The TNF schedule concludes in Week 17 with an intriguing matchup between the Bears and Seahawks, teams that could be in the NFC Wild Card race with two weeks remaining.

If they aren’t, you can expect the NFL to flex in a more meaningful matchup.
