[Sean Payton's Vicodin]

yep, we should find out right before or after the seahawks game. guessing our only shot at SNF is if we beat the seahawks

I wish some people would read the thread before posting

Can't believe I didn't know that new flex rule - and I don't like that rule one bit.

Here's what I found from NFL.com on the subject. I suppose Seahawks vs Panthers could also get flexed since it's 12 days away. 

 

http://www.nfl.com/flexible-schedules

 

• Begins Sunday of Week 5
• In effect during Weeks 5-17
• Up to 2 games may be flexed into Sunday Night between Weeks 5-10
• Only Sunday afternoon games are subject to being moved into the Sunday night window.
• The game that has been tentatively scheduled for Sunday night during flex weeks will be listed at 8:15 p.m. ET.
• The majority of games on Sundays will be listed at 1:00 p.m. ET during flex weeks except for games played in Pacific or Mountain Time zones which will be listed at 4:05 or 4:15 p.m. ET.
• No impact on Thursday, Saturday or Monday night games.
• The NFL will decide (after consultation with CBS, FOX, NBC) and announce as early as possible the game being played at 8:15 p.m. ET. The announcement will come no later than 12 days prior to the game. The NFL may also announce games moving to 4:05 p.m. ET and 4:25 p.m. ET.
• Week 17 start time changes could be decided on 6 days notice to ensure a game with playoff implications.
• The NBC Sunday night time slot in "flex" weeks will list the game that has been tentatively scheduled for Sunday night.

have a feeling that one of the Falcons game will be flexed

I wouldn't be pissed if the eagles game was flexed to 1 pm, then the packers game was flexed to SNF.

They aren't taking an NFC East team out of Primetime.

The Sunday night game vs the Eagles will be Chip Kelly's judgement why would they flex such a moment

[blackcat]

Really hope it's not flexed.  I love night games.

I am thinking that the Packers game could get flexed

From weeks 5-10 they can only flex 2 of those 5 weeks.  I would think they would want to hang on to using those for something really good.  Plus the Eagles free falling still makes for good talk if they continue to lose

[bigdog10]

If pats-jets is protected by CBS they will probably keep us where we are

 

if its not, they will definitely move our game out in favor of jets-pats

[CRA]

I think week 6 and week 10 will be the ones flexed....that keeps our night games as is

Really only a matter of which one at this point. Both current SNF games in those slots involve the Ravens, which makes it a little easier to flex if they keep being disappointing. 12/27 is Steelers-Ravens so NBC would probably have a tough time flexing that one out, but our game in Atlanta could be for the division title... AGAIN.
