    Default Steelers--Ravens in Week 13 Flex Game (SNF)??

    Is it possible for the Steelers--Ravens game to be on Sunday Nite Football for the 2nd time in 3 weeks?

    I look at the current matchup for Week 13 on SNF: Eagles at Cowboys. With Vick out and the Eagles nose-diving, I can see this game being moved. Other than Tampa Bay at Denver, the other best game would be the Steelers at Ravens game.

    Another possibility for a SNF flex game is the Week 16 game of the Giants at Ravens, which would replace the Chargers at Jets game on SNF.

    No. Steelers already have five night games and that is the limit.

    I'm guessing the Denver game has a good chance at getting flexed?

    On the other hand 0-1 night home games would probably = we are having a bad year and no one wants to watch us

    Not likely, the night game set for that day is SF @ NE.

    I'd bet money ravens giants will be flexed. The scheduled game is Jets vs Chargers, chargers will likely be eliminated from contention by then. They're not going to have two non contending teams on Week 16 SNF.

    Besides Ravens Giants only games I see possibility of moving are 49ers Seahawks, Bears Cards or Bengals Steelers. Even those games are eh

    It just makes too much sense for it to be Ravens v Giants SNF

    or not
    The league has not yet announced what will happen in Week 16, when the Jets and Chargers are scheduled to play Sunday night. But the Giants' game against the Ravens, currently scheduled for 1 p.m., has been protected by FOX, so it cannot be moved to Sunday night, according to a person with knowledge of the network's decisions. Giants-Falcons was also protected by FOX.

    Yeah, seems like the other networks tend to do a decent job of "protecting" the marquee match-ups ahead of time... so the flex schedule option hasn't really even been utilized very much from what I recall.

    Really interesting good matchup games this season have been few and far between.

    Thanksgiving day tv games were a disaster.
