The NFL is NOT gonna wanna watch this shit show called the Packers, so how will they handle the 7:00pm games???

Aaron Rodgers and the Green Bay Packers are still one helluva draw for ratings. Even if people tune in just to see 12 get his ass kicked, the numbers matter.
I think a game or two late in the year might get moved in favor of playoff implications but never lose sight of the almighty dollar that drives the NFL.
Currently, the Bills, Chiefs, and Eagles are the teams the networks covet.
Dolphins, Titans, Cowboys are right behind.
The Vikes, Giants, and other teams that have winning records may get some priority if they continue winning.
I don't know what the schedule is for SNF, but I could see some games being flexed based on matchup, playoff implications, and so forth.
They only have 1 game that could be flexed, Packers at Philly. But if you look at the schedule for that week, there really are not any more games that are more attractive. Maybe Cinny at Tennessee, but I doubt CBS would want to give it up.

Buffalo, Dallas and Minny are playing on Thanksgiving, Nov. 24th. Non of those games will be flexed to Sunday Night, the 27th. And since the Packers play Philly on the 27th we will see them remain on Sunday Night.
Especially after GB wins their next 2.

I have tickets to that game on Sunday night. At the beginning of the year I had high hopes! We found out they were false hopes. π’
The link I have has the wrong date listed - should be Nov 20th instead of 27th, but they've switched out Pittsburgh/Cincy with KC/LA Chargers on Sunday night.
