Do you think Seattle might get flexed out again?

Seattle plays the Rams. The more interesting game would be the Saints v 49ers.

 

[HawkGA]

Channels can protect a game, right? So I think it really takes two more interesting games for the Hawks to get flexed (like what happened this week with NE/Dal and 9ers/GB).

I don’t think the NFL is gonna flex out LOS ANGELES Rams/Seahawks for Saints/49ers.

If they flex the 49ers/Saints game, that means the NFL would have the Seahawks/Rams game on along with Patriots/Chiefs at the late afternoon window. The NFL I'm sure would prefer to have the games remain at their current timeslots so that all windows have compelling football matches with playoff relevance.

It's not the NFL it is the Networks that choose based on ratings and whom they think will be the most favorable view by National fans.

Robert England and Dall ASS Piss Burger and Puckers seem to get National ratings as well as the Whiners.

I don’t think the NFL is gonna flex out LOS ANGELES Rams/Seahawks for Saints/49ers.

A contest between two teams with a combined 3 losses in Week 12 (Saints/49ers) or a game involving a team that's clinging to its playoff life (Rams)? I'd pick the first.

And so would FOX so I'm sure they aren't giving that game to NBC.

Dallas game is a Thursday game..they are out. The only other real games I see would be the ones that need to be protected. Niners in the morning/early afternoon at the Saints...will be protected by Fox. There are no other really hard games to protect. Cbs will get the late Bradys game and that will finish the situation. Ravens at bills looks a bit interesting but I think the Rams and us are more important in the NFC race.

It’s looking likely Seahawks/Rams get flexed.

The Rams suck.

 

[Jayburd14]

My understanding is that they have 12 days to flex and it hasn't happened so I think the game is going to be a Sunday Night game

True but post Thanksgiving, the teams and public have to be given 12 days notice before a flex. If it hasn't happened yet, it's not going to.

Bummer. These Night games are killing me.

That's the penalty for success. On Thursday, they basically just rotate so every team eventually plays a Thurs game, but Sunday night goes heavy for playoff teams/contenders. Monday's a little different now, since they don't get "first dibs" like they used to of the weekend matchups, but they still favor top tier teams if they can.

Really? You are valuing your beauty sleep over having the leagues best Prime Time team get a prime time slot?

If i could rally the NFL to make all our games in prime time I would. 14-2 every year, woohoo.
