SNF Eagles/Pats 11/25-any chance this gets flexed OUT?
 
Seriously-the Eagles are DONE, and will probably be lucky to win a couple of more games this year.

I doubt it- at worst the Eagles will be 4-6 going into the game. Philly and Boston are huge markets, 2 big-name coaches and QBs, SB39 rematch. The Pats are a ratings bonanza these days anyway.

And the "gimmie my ring" comment WILL get some mileage that week ;)

Take the over and give the points because Philly is running on fumes and ripe to get blown out. It's getting ugly and even some snipping coming from the clubhouse that they can't blame on T.O. One or two more losses and they'll be ready to pack this season in......just in time for 11/25........

I'd say there's a pretty damn decent chance it gets flexed out... it isn't big enough that Fox would want to "protect" it, but the rest of the games on the schedule for that weekend are pretty much duds. The only matchup eligible for flexing involving 2 teams currently over .500 is Was-TB.

In fact, right now, if you check the schedule on CBS.sportsline or ESPN.com it does indeed show the Pats game as starting at 8:15

Wow, 3 straight night games, 2 on the road. At least we get to follow up with 3 straight 1pm starts in Foxboro.

Just think, if we're 15-0 going into the Meadowlands, not a lot of people will see it.
