I was looking over the schedule for the coming to weeks to see if any of our games could draw attention on prime time vs. the games they have scheduled now and there are 2 openings.

week 12 - New England at Miami. Could be a huge game in 3 weeks, also the rematch of a memorable early season game. Indy @ San Diego is the sunday night game and both those teams are on the decline.

week 14 - Miami at Buffalo (Toronto) Obvious draw of the international game and being the first game ever in Canada is cool. New England @ Seattle is the sunday night game and I think regardless of whether our game is put into that slot.....someone else's will be. No one wants to see the Seahawks.....or Matt Cassell for that matter.

Just food for thougt.
 
yeah we may get flexed a few times. But since everyone drinks the Pats and Bretts kool-aid it may not happen.
 
If I were to rank the possibilities, I would think #1 New England, #2 Jets, #3 Buffalo.

The New England game is likely to be for first place in the division, plus there is the revenge angle from earlier in the season. Plus Miami will be 6-4 barring a complete face-plant.

I think the Jets' schedule in weeks 11-15 will eliminate them from the division race. Maybe they're in a spoiler position, but I think Buffalo/New England would be a more likely prime-time fit.

I don't think the NFL will be comfortable flexing a game outside the country, even if it should be for the division lead.

This might come down to Miami Vs Jets .... Big Flex Game Possible
 
I don't think there is any way the Buffalo game will be flexed with all of the logistics involved. You have to remember there are a lot of people who have been planning the international trip for a long time and there is no way the NFL interrupts these plans.
 
I like flying under the radar this season. I'm sure next season we'll have some prime time.

Then you might want to invest in a time machine to take you back to two weeks age because not in a team in the league would take us lightly now.

Were officially on radar.
 
Incorrect. There is no MNF on the last week but there is SNF. Remember last year final week Titans vs Colts?

So I am assuming they just didn't schedule any game in that spot because the schedule has the last game starting at 4.

Was that the case last year, hard to remember.
 
I just read for Flex games it has to be a a suday afternoon game? Is that saying only 3:00 games or just sunday games?
