The potential flex games between Week 5 and Week 10 come with a stipulation. The NFL can't change the tentative Sunday Night Football game every week. The league may flex up to two games total into Sunday night between Weeks 5-10. The rest of the flexible schedule procedures from previous years remains intact. After Week 11, the NFL can flex any Sunday night game.

There's also something called "cross-flexing"

The "cross flex" mechanism will serve a similar purposes. Select games can be flexed between CBS and FOX. In the past, a game with two NFC teams had to be on FOX and a game with two AFC teams had to be on CBS. Now the league can theoretically move an all-NFC game to CBS or an all-AFC game to FOX in select cases. This will help balance out the television schedule, especially in a week where one network has all the most intriguing games.


I like this A LOT if they do it properly. It stinks when Fox has 2 games I want to watch but CBS has the doubleheader.

Or when Fox schedules one of those stupid "NFC East Showdowns" as America's Game of the Week in the late slot, and both teams are 4-7

NFC South little man syndrome, keep hating but the East brings in ratings nationwide regardless of the records.
