Eagles and Saints game is moving to Fox’s 3:25 game. Was scheduled for Noon, per league source

Confirmed by Chad

The Advocate



NFL has until tomorrow (Tuesday) to flex the Eagles game to SNF or the 3:05pm slot.


NFL Flexible Scheduling 101
-Begins Sunday of Week 5
-In effect during Weeks 5-17
-Up to 2 games may be flexed into Sunday Night between Weeks 5-10
-Only Sunday afternoon games are subject to being moved into the Sunday night window.
-The game that has been tentatively scheduled for Sunday night during flex weeks will be listed at 8:15 p.m. ET.
-The majority of games on Sundays will be listed at 1:00 p.m. ET during flex weeks except for games played in Pacific or Mountain Time zones which will be listed at 4:05 or 4:15 p.m. ET.
-No impact on Thursday, Saturday or Monday night games.
-The NFL will decide (after consultation with CBS, FOX, NBC) and announce as early as possible the game being played at 8:15 p.m. ET. The announcement will come no later than 12 days prior to the game. The NFL may also announce games moving to 4:05 p.m. ET and 4:25 p.m. ET.
-Week 17 start time changes could be decided on 6 days notice to ensure a game with playoff implications.
-The NBC Sunday night time slot in "flex" weeks will list the game that has been tentatively scheduled for Sunday night.
-Fans and ticket holders must be aware that NFL games in flex weeks are subject to change 12 days in advance (6 days in Week 17) and should plan accordingly.
NFL schedules all games.
-Teams will be informed as soon as they are no longer under consideration or eligible for a move to Sunday night.

Hopefully somebody with some inside info can drop it early.

I think we definitely moving to 3:05pm at a minimum.


Current Week 11 primetime:

CBS - 3:05pm - Broncos at Chargers
CBS - 3:05pm - Raiders at Cardinals

NBC - 7:20pm - Steelers at Jaguars


None of those three are very appealing BUT its the CBS doubleheader so i dont know if that will be an issue.

Steelers alone is a high profile team.

Saints and Eagles might be better option though.

We also play a Thurs night game that week against falcons...


Sunday night turn around to Thursday night... NFL might avoid.

I think being flexed to 3:05pm or 3:25pm on Fox is very realistic. Fox may opt to flex Vikings at Bears, as that would be the biggest threat. However, I think the Eagles-Saints game would be favored over that one.
