What I've been told by people that actually care enough to pay attention to this sort of thing is that it comes down to budget. Bottom line, the NFL-N simply doesn't have the ability to out-bid anybody so they get the "bottom of the barrel" games so to speak.
Oh, they get the first game of the season which should be a good game because I guess the SB champs are in that one, and a couple others down the line, but most of the TNF match-ups are games the other networks weren't that interested in.
