Patriots Flexed Out of Prime Time in Vegas

[Ian]

Looks like it'll be a 4pm game:

Thought they'd keep it due to the coaching storyline, but with a real chance that both teams are under .500 going in, can't blame them one bit for wanting a game with NFC playoff implications instead. Selfishly, I'll be glad to have a break from night games anyway.

 

[Pat the Pats Fan]

The pats haven’t looked good the last few night games, I don’t blame the network.

This may happen for some more Of our prime time games

 

[lancerman]

Pats/Raiders and Giants/Commanders are going to be in similar situations but honestly I'd flex it to. Raiders and Patriots have played some bad football this year.

Robert will not be happy his team is officially irrelevant

Saving the Nation from a soccer game.

Ticket prices are still crazy right now. Just checked. $600 for lowers??!!
What happened to the recession?
Are you staying on the strip?
How pricey are hotels?

 

[denverpatsfan]

I applaud the NYFL for a change on this decision.

 

[Bourne Again Christian]

This team isn’t irrelevant per say it’s just meh.

Yep, crazy prices...gonna buy my tickets on game day or a day or two before in hopes that prices drop.

Not sure about staying on the strip as I'll be passing through Vegas en route to Montana....Wifey likes the Paris hotel on the strip...but trying to steer her to a Holiday Inn Express off the strip, LOL....that would only be like $175 a night....and include a free breakfast, LOL.

Guessing on strip hotels are probably like $400/night on Fri/Sat...then $275/night on Sunday....prices are always higher on Fri/Sat for obvious reasons...

I'm sure Belichick isn't disappointed his team will now be back in Foxboro significantly earlier to start prepping ahead of the Bengals game.

 

[Nunchucks]

Hate night games.

On one hand, I prefer earlier games because I'm old and the late games make it a pain to get up for work the next day. On the other hand, I'm not in New England so I need to use a VPN + GamePass International if the game isn't being shown nationally or in my local market, which has been most weeks this year. Not a huge deal, but at least one week so far, GamePass International went down for the entire game day which was extremely annoying. Removing that barrier is always a plus.

I am all set on prime time games.

 

[Guts]

Hmm makes sense, but the Raiders are quietly 5-7 they're not out of it just yet

 

[VrabelJr]

weird flex but ok

I thought four-straight was a little extreme, so I'm not sorry to see one taken off the board.
