    The week 15 game against the Bengals has be moved to 1PM.

    Cowboys/Bucs has been flexed to Sunday Night Football.

    Just got the text from ESPN. Also changed reflected on the NFL Mobile App.

    After last years debacle I'm surprised they even had another stupid fan behavior fest scheduled this year.

    Yeah, first time I have liked flex scheduling. Now, if they had made it a 4:xx game, that would have been perfect.

    Bummer. I would have liked watching the Steelers beating the snot out of the Bengals in prime time, but any time will do.

    I feel like this is the 1st time we are getting flexed out of the 8 pm game. Usually we are getting flexed in.

    I tend to like day games more, get's me to be at a more normal time and I can fall asleep. Those prime time games get my nerves going then I can't fall asleep, very easily when it's over.

    Yeah...they are gonna still play like thugs and haters!!!! Have to get up by atleast three scores and pull players, because as the game winds down they will realize that they are not in the mix this year and try to get nasty!!!

    Does anyone think the Christmas Day game could be switched? Or does the NFL believe the Denver vs. KC is more intriguing?

    No it cannot. That game is fixed on its time. CBS no longer has the rights to market Thursday Night Football this year. Both CBS and NBC are allocated to have five TNF games per season per the new deal by the NFL.


    As for your second question, it is more so of what the competition committee drew up in the offseason. They sure did not know how this season would turn. They did what they thought was right at the time.

    the christmas games are on Sunday

    and SANTA better bring me some new STEELER SWAG to prance around in

    ours on the nfl network 4:30
    and KC v denver on nbc 8:30

    i'm sure nbc could flex but why would they

    both these games are or should be huge on playoff implications
    i'm sure these networks are very stoked on how it is shaping up

    i only know the schedule because i'm still planning my SURVIVOR picks
    fingers crossed


    i don't see a saturday game worth flexing

    GB v Minn?

    Miami v Buffalo?

    The earlier the better to kick their butts. I prefer earlier.

    I'm pretty sure you lose the ability to "prance" once you don any Steelers gear. In case I'm wrong, though ...

    Pics or it didn't happen.

    I'm not surprised: the game lacks luster. Thank the Bungles for that.

    Oh! Haha.


    Did not see that one. Either way, NBC does have that one.
