Tomorow is the day the NFL decides if we are being flexed out of Dec. 20th sunday night game vs the vikings. With us all but one loss away from being eliminated from playoff contention and the Vikings having the division pretty much wrapped up if the Packers lose tonight, do you think we will get flexed out?

i think Cincinnati San Diego is protected by CBS..PFT had an article about how the other game options that aren't protected for that week aren't that much more tempting.

you might be right. CBS has the double header that week. The lack of another attractive game that week means we stay there by default most likely. unless they flex New Orleans or Indianapolis.

A bunch of reasons but the biggest one is that in my opinion the coverage is always lopsided to the team with the the largest market.

In this case it will be a 3.5-4.5 hour Farve/Peterson/Allen love fest that I can do without.

Not only that but I really hate watching us get our teeth kicked in on national broadcasts and this has the potential to get WAY out of hand.

You are correct, however they still do that no matter the announcer or time. Including national highlight shows.

They can flex the Thursday and Saturday games?

    • There was some pretty egregious missed calls vs the Chiefs in the Lions game, especially Kelce. The completion where he clearly used the ground to catch the ball. The hold in front of the ref as Pacheco ran by where the defender was trying to turn around and couldnt because Kelce had him by the jersey. Mahomes openly taunting after scoring a TD. 0 penalties after double digit the week before. Cmon. 
    • People get trade happy and look at resources as barter items. They fail to see them as resources to be used to our benefit rather than someone else's. Right now, Chuba and Rico are massive benefits to us and a strong rushing attack so greatly benefits any passer, much less a young one like Bryce still is.  And the better our running game, the more our offense can eat up the clock, the less time our defense is on the field. And that is priceless, too. Don't mess with the running game. Don't mess with the receivers. Maybe look at our O-line and think we may have hit on something good during these injuries. Look at our D-line and seem some strength evolving there. Our secondary has its good spots and some that are still developing. Our linebacking corps did well this last outing. Our special teams are on a major upswing as of this past week. Heck, even our QB is showing us a little something right now that we can build on. Perhaps putting out a yard sale sign right now might be less advantageous than looking at the team and saying, "You are all part of something good that is happening. We want to see that continue to grow."
