It's easy, and only takes a few moments.It's funny that you mention Green Bay, because with Madden on the Sunday night crew, I wouldn't be surprised if an inordinate amount of Packer games get "flexed" to Sunday night so that madden can splooge over Favre.scout said:Your kidding me. You mean no one wants to watch Green Bay and Seattle?
That's going to turn a cold day into a very cold night at the Razor. I don't tailgate when it's under 50.QB12 said:Right now, no-brainer, the Pats-Bears game Sunday Nov. 26 gets moved to that night because of the NFL's new flex scheduling. Possible Super Bowl preview, etc.

scout said:WTF, just noticed that's Green Bay's second appearance on MNF! Must be because they were so good last year. And they wonder why some games suck on MNF, go figure.
This is because MNF is now SNF and vice versa.scout said:WTF, just noticed that's Green Bay's second appearance on MNF! Must be because they were so good last year. And they wonder why some games suck on MNF, go figure.

"CBS and FOX will each be able to protect a total of five games in the seven weeks of flexible scheduling, but not more than one game in any week."

tailgater said:So? What other matchups can they keep or protect that will draw a bigger audience, (if both teams continue at this pace)?
It's almost a lock that Fox will hype this matchup to the max, and will make it their national 4:15 game. Think about it - everone finally home after visiting family, digesting the last of the turkey. Could be their highest ratings of the year.
Seymour93 said:The other games FOX has on that Sunday are the following:
NO @ ATL
PHIL @ INDY
I guarentee you FOX protects either our game against CHI or the PHIL @ INDY contest. It's up to the big wigs at FOX which game they want and which game SNF subsequently picks up.
shakadave said:NO @ ATL might also generate some (yawn!) interest with Bush @ Vick.
Could FOX protect BOTH the NE and Indy games? One at 1, one at 4:15?
