Cardinals Eagles flexed to SNF

Wow the Cards are really getting the love this year. If they keep winning, rightfully so I guess.

That's it for them in primetime. That puts them at the 5 game limit.

So I guess the Cardinals/Seahawks game won't get flexed. Btw tired of seeing the Eagles play on primetime.

Went looking for the rules stating the amount of late games a team is allowed. Could not find it. Anyone??

It was never going to be flexed, Fox had it protected.

Incorrect. FOX and CBS can't protect games in Week 17. NBC picks whatever one it wants.

I think the last time we discussed this was when it affected the Hawks possibly being primetime more than the allotted amount of games. There are no restrictions for intra-division games being flexed.


Individual teams may make no more than four appearances on NBC during the season. Only three teams may make as many as six prime time appearances (Sunday night, Monday night, Thursday night, and Saturday night combined).[30] The remaining teams may make a maximum of five prime time appearances. In addition, there are no restrictions amongst intra-division games being "flexed."

And so explains the reason Philadelphia is on primetime week after week.....awesome. This stupidity would have never happened if the Seahawks would have just taken care of business at home this year.

Week 17 has no restrictions. A team can be flexed a 6th time in this week.

HOWEVER,

I highly doubt it unless its for the division. And even then, I expect a NFCE team to take it with a deciding division game.
