Broncos @ Chargers

Winner wins the AFC West Division Title

Cowboys @ Eagles

Cowboys clinch 6th seed with...
A: Win
B: Bucs loss (vs Raiders)

Eagles clinch 6th seed with...

B: Bucs loss (vs Raiders)

Jets not being flexed would be huge for us. Personally, if I'm running things you're flexing the Chargers/Broncos game. It's the only game where your guaranteed both teams will have a shot at the playoffs, regardless of what happens earlier in the day.

I've heard on the radio that it can't be Cowboys / Eagles since they have already taken their maximum # of NFC/FOX games.

As much as I hate it, I have to think that the league wants Favre on primetime TV.

I heard that on Mike Francesca as well, but he then said he was wrong and it possibly could be flexed.

Not sure though.

If there is a flex it better be the effin Broncos/Chargers game. That is huge from a football fan standpoint when you look back to the first meeting between them.

It's likely to be DEN/SD, but it's also likely that as a result MIA/NYJ moves to 4PM, which is no better for us than if it moves to 8PM.

The SD/Den game will be moved to 8.

CBS will then move the Jets/Phins to fill in as their national TV game at 4.

Flex the Chargers and Broncos--they both have something to play for no matter what. If the Patriots beat Buffalo at 1, then the Jets have nothing to play for and the game could be boooooring.
