eball Posted October 16, 2019 Share Posted October 16, 2019 I was hoping maybe the Baltimore game on 12/8 will be flexed to Sunday night but they've already got Seattle @ Rams that night (which is unlikely to be kicked out). Agree that Bills/Pats*** will almost certainly be flexed to Saturday, looking at the other four games. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, almost certain to be the early game, 12:30 EST, on NFLN, with Rams-49ers almost a lock for the Saturday night game. One of the final three games will fill the 4:30 Saturday slot. Houston at Tampa Bay looking like the best option right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Time to start a gofundme page for those working on Sunday in order to take that day off. No one ever said we'd be productive watching and working LOL 8 minutes ago, eball said: I was hoping maybe the Baltimore game on 12/8 will be flexed to Sunday night but they've already got Seattle @ Rams that night (which is unlikely to be kicked out).

Rams Niners would make sense to be the afternoon game since that's roughly 1pm kickoff for them. Houston Tampa 1230 makes sense too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheFunPolice Posted October 16, 2019 Share Posted October 16, 2019 (edited) I'll never understand this "please no prime time games" mentality. Teams that matter play in prime time. I want the Bills in the spotlight because it means they are winning! NE and KC don't play 16 1pm Sunday games Do you mean to tell me Bills fans of all people can't stay up past 10 to watch their team? Come on!

NFL can flex from 1:00 to 4:05 or 4:15 and it looks like teams need 12 days notice. http://www.nfl.com/flexible-schedules 5 minutes ago, Monty98 said: If that game can decided the division, we'll easily be the Saturday night.

I think by American Thanksgiving we'll have a better idea of how that Saturday will look. Looking at the rest of the season, there's no real weeks we'll get flexed into prime time unfortunately. Unless they are willing to move Vikings Cowboys for our game against Cleveland. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cowboys will never be flexed out of a prime-time slot, even if they were 1-12 and playing the Little Sisters of the Poor. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CBS and Fox probably have some pull, and they might want to keep at least 1 of the potentially good match-ups on Sunday you would think. No, this selection is different. The NFLN gets first dibs on games in this case. CBS and FOX get what's left over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Away games to make up the other 3 prime time games we will inevitably get next year! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
