Vikings-Cardinals heads to Sunday night in Week 13

Posted by Mike Florio on November 24, 2009 11:31 AM ET

After two weeks of flex scheduling involving no flexing at all, the NFL and NBC have decided to swap out the tentatively-scheduled Sunday night game in Week 13.

And that means the game between the Patriots and Dolphins will move out of the 8:30 p.m. ET slot, giving way to a visit by the Vikings to Arizona.

It's a rematch of a Week 15 matchup from 2008, during which the Vikings clobbered the Cardinals on their own field, 35-14. The win was fueled by four touchdown passes from Tarvaris Jackson, who threw only 16 times in the entire game. Bernard Berrian, who caught a 41-yard touchdown pass, started the scoring with an 82-yard punt return to paydirt.

So even though the Vikings have Brett Favre on the roster this year, it's hard to expect him to top one of the best performances of Jackson's career.

A non-NBC source with access to the top-secret list of protected games tells us that, for Week 13, CBS had placed Tennessee at Indianapolis on the off-limits list, and FOX had squatted on Cowboys at Giants.

      Not sure how much he was a long term piece of this team.   Sucks to not have him as part of the rotation.   Looks like it's Lee Hunter time.

      I am not sure he will put the over the games but we’ll probably have them.   Two things I am thinking.  We have 4 preseason games.  All the coaches have enough service time to know the standards that are in place for decades. If I recall it was play your starters just a series to start woth and build it up until week theee where play a lot and you have week four to set hour roster. Evaluate before cuts.   Bevell will certainly have the whole thing down pat.   I’d they don’t do the fries and frie air will worry too. Because it is set up to do that.     I have said since they went t three preseason people have to figure a new way are still feeling it out and trying things.  We don’t have to this year.
