Got to imagine even at a 5-7 record we're going to have some division clinching games that could warrant a flex. This is all depending on the rest of the league schedule of course

starting this year games between weeks 5-17 can be flexed.

Only chance of a flex game is Atlanta to the afternoon but CBS has the primetime afternoon game that week and Sunday Night Football is Dener @ Cinci so it wouldn't make any sense for Fox to flex it only for the Atlanta and New Orleans markets Sunday afternoon. It would be nice though

wouldnt make any sense to flex a team with a losing record.

If someone has the time, i bet this could be proven by looking at previous flexes. I doubt theres any with a losing record.

Seahawks Rams were flexed in 2010 in a similar situation

They don't care about records, they care about playoff implications and story lines.

That being said, Fox won't flex it because they don't have the afternoon prime time game and not a chance in hell NBC is flexing it over Denver @ Cincinnati

Will that be the game when Peyton breaks Drew's record.

Saints will not be flexed, period. They're not flexing Tampa week 17 either. Bengals/Steelers, Packers/Lions, Patriots/Bills, Chargers/Chiefs, and 49ers/Cardinals will all have more playoff implications.

That is the Monday Night game.

Seattle @ Arizona is the SNF game, so I still doubt it.

Toughest division in the NFC. Division title on the line. Yeah, not flexing out.
