slimjasi Posted November 7, 2022 Share Posted November 7, 2022 I'm assuming they would pick the Cowboys over all, if they are an option. I think FOX and CBS get to "protect" a certain number of games per year from being flexed - so that is another factor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GreenFish Posted November 7, 2022 Share Posted November 7, 2022 ? It’s a significant game with major playoff implications. Both teams are currently playing well and it’s a huge rivalry. Cowboys / Vikings is a great option as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doitny Posted November 7, 2022 Share Posted November 7, 2022 Jets - Patriots is one of the best rivalries in sports. and now that both teams are good they will definitely flex us over Cowboys -Vikings. think of the story lines. can the Jets break NE winning streak over us. can Zach build on his great Buffalo game to get revenge against what they did to him in week 8. people will want to see us. we got exciting young guys like Sauce and GW. QW is having a career year. did Zach take a turn for the better? who the hell wants to see Cousins vs Dak. Dallas vs Minn. all thats missing is for Saleh to say " hes not here to kiss Belichicks rings " 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

More Cowbell Posted November 7, 2022 Share Posted November 7, 2022 The Jets nationally are not a big story. Yes we won some game and we upset a SB favorite but team like the Bengals and Cowboys have more national appeal now than a Cinderella team taking on one struggling to maintain respectability.

The Vikings are 7-1. It’s delusional to think Jets-Pats is more appealing from NBC’s standpoint.

football guy Posted November 7, 2022 Share Posted November 7, 2022 There's some speculation this could be announced tomorrow. CBS doesn't get many chances to call Cowboy games, so they would likely protect the DAL vs MIN matchup and make that their game of the week (Tony Romo & Jim Nantz). With the Patriots and Jets both coming off byes, there's less scheduling implications they face as well. Only reason why they wouldn't flex this is because the national audience for the Steelers 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Correct. Point being the NFL can request to move the Cowboys game, but CBS can decline it. That would make the NYJ/NE the next best game, and swapping out an AFC divisional matchup from CBS to NBC SNF is seamless because CBS would have the rights to PIT/CIN as well. Pretty confident this will ultimately be flexed, which would be pretty cool. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I recall early on in the Pats game the teaser for the Bills game. "Sauce Gardner and the Jets to take on Josh Allen and the Bills next week on CBS" or whatever network.

doitny Posted November 8, 2022 Share Posted November 8, 2022 When the New York Jets defeated the New England Patriots in the 2010 playoffs to advance to the AFC Championship Game, linebacker Bart Scott dropped one of the simplest and most memorable quotes in football history. “Can’t wait.” 11 years later, the words have been spoken again. When asked after the game about the Jets facing the Patriots in Week 11 following their bye next week, cornerback Sauce Gardner, who had an interception of Josh Allen and seven tackles in the Jets’ 20-17 win over the Bills in Week 9, simply said three words. “I can’t wait.” Yes, the Jets went on to lose that AFC Championship to the Pittsburgh Steelers, but the interview still lives on to this day with a new chapter having been added thanks to the rookie sensation. The Jets quickly have a chance to overcome their 22-17 loss to the Patriots in Week 8. They have two weeks to enjoy the win over the Bills and prepare for another Bill. Bill Belichick. Sauce and the Jets can’t wait. Chances are Bart Scott can’t wait, either. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
