CBS must have protected the Bills - Chiefs game. NBC would definitely have taken that if it was available.


Agreed, Bills - Chiefs probably CBS’ top game of the season, with Romo/Nance on the call for sure.  
 

Looking ahead to the rest of the season, looks doubtful we’d have any other games flexed into SNF either.  There’s either a good matchup there already, or we’re playing a crappy opponent.  Only chance seems like when we host the Jests in Week 17 (it’s current MIA v CLE), and that’d be if the Jests went on a huge run so the game meant something for them, and the league didn’t want to flex GB v Min instead.

 

Edit:  Bleeding Bills pointed out there’s a bunch of other Week 17 options, so pretty much no chance we get flexed to SNF anywhere else.

I am surprised NBC didn't take the Steelers - Ravens game instead of the Bengals - Chargers. Unless CBS can protect more than one game.

CBS has protected the Bills-Chiefs game for the last two years. They aren't surrendering that game now.

There's a number of good potential matchups for week 17.  

 

Rams v. cardinals

Broncos v. Bengals

Falcons v. commanders

It would also make 3 SNF games for each team, which seems excessive for a specific time-slot.  18 games all season and you'd have 5 games with either the Bills or Chiefs playing in it.  Buffalo is also hosting SNF 2 weeks later, which would mean collinsworth in buffalo 2 weeks out of 3.  

 

Steelers play on the road TNF week 12, so it doesn't seem likely that they play the 2nd to last game one week, and the earliest game the next week.

But there was talk of the playoff push by the Jets with that big win the other night???

Well... They'll just have to flex it back 😀

Ha - I was just about to type this doesn't fit the narrative that the Jets have turned it around with a win and are playoff-bound now

No doubt it was protected. Guaranteed eyeballs for that one.

Romo will come up with some phrase for Keon Coleman...

Hoping Keon will be good to go for that game.
