The current game scheduled for Sunday Night Football for week 14 is the Seahawks @ Ravens. 

Barring a complete melt down from either the Falcons or Panthers.

 I think its very possible our game at home against the Falcons could be flexed to SNF football over the Seahawks @ Ravens even if we do lose a game or two between now and Week 14.

Soooooooooooooo much delusional in the thread linked below... lol (not the OP though)

Only took 3 responses to find a nut job.

"Panthers are worse than they have been in past years. Quite a bit worse actually."

Here's another-

"It's the Cam to Olsen show. We should be able to handle that" 

Yeah, Ginn's not catching anything- same for Brown, or Funchess, or Cotchery.

Man we sure do miss LaFell. Now there's a sure handed #2 receiver.

Speaking of flex games, I could see CBS requesting to flex the Green Bay and Carolina game and move it to 4pm if both teams remain unbeaten.  Right now its Denver and Indy and if Indy were to lose to us and Denver remains lackluster at offense, there is always a possibility of a flex.  

Fox would also have to be ok with giving up the rights to the game though, so possible but they may want to keep it as well.

I think it's more likely that the GB game gets flexed to SNF than CBS cross flexing it and I don't see that game going to SNF. They'd have to give up a very good game in return like Pats-Jets in week 16 which they certainly do not want to do. Especially since Manning-Luck will get very good ratings.

We got a 13 overnight rating for the game last night. Dallas-Philly will put up close to a 20 overnight rating.

My prediction is week 14 the Panthers-Falcons gets SNF and week 16 the Pats-Jets gets flexed to SNF(CBS should let that one go since they would get Pittsburgh-Baltimore in return which will get good ratings regardless of how bad the teams are).

      In addition to Evero there's one large change that likely should happen.

      It's honestly pretty interesting just seeing this pairing play out. Canales’ offenses (Seattle, Tampa) are run-first, under-center, play-action systems built around defined reads and intermediate/deep timing throws. That structure worked when he had QBs like Baker Mayfield or Russell Wilson in a system that created clear launch points and sightlines. His success has always been tied to a credible run game + play-action gravity. You can see that with the Panthers team building philosophy as well. Coker and TMac both are bigger receivers that won't get the best YAC production but thrive as possession receivers in contested scenarios. They're not the best in space and creating additional yardage in such, and would likely fair better systematically with a stronger armed QB who can create better opportunities on those boundary 1v1 matchups with stronger throws. Bryce, on the other hand, is a spread-native QB. His strengths are rhythm, spacing, quick processing, and off-script creation. Asking him to live in condensed formations with long-developing play-action concepts just hasn't been his forte. And well, his boundary throws are limited in velocity which takes a big chunk of the playbook off. And I mean a QB like Bryce can still work, it's just Dave's offensive philosophy and foundation is very much at odds with Young's physical limits and his own experience. So it's certainly still a learning experience for Dave to figure out how he can mesh his offensive philosophy with Young's strengths. He's very inexperienced with maximizing Bryce's strengths with his system. Would love to see us bring in an OC with spread experience and adaptability to implement a cohesive system with Dave to allow Bryce to thrive, as it's obvious we're sticking with him for a bit longer.

      CBS Sports brief discussion about questionable Canales decision making

      By TylerDurden · Posted

      Only thing I really agreed with is questioning why we didn’t take any timeouts on their last drive.  I know hindsight is 20/20, but I think it would’ve saved clock bc they were desperate to score as soon as the opportunity presented itself, but I also think it could’ve helped the defense regroup and maybe give us a better chance to stop them.
