Week 14 in the League Where They Play for Pay brings a few changes for fans. While we won’t see any flexes for Sunday Night Football (Dallas at the New York Football Giants), there are a couple of flexes in the Sunday afternoon schedule.

First for Sunday, December 11, New Orleans at Tampa Bay moves from the 1 p.m. ET slot to the 4:25 p.m. window on Fox giving the network three games in the late timeslot.

Then in the early window, Chicago at Detroit will be crossflexed from Fox to CBS in the 1 p.m. slot. CBS will have five early games while Fox will have four. But with Fox’s three late games, it will have seven total games that day while CBS will be sending out six total games in its regional coverage.

Here’s the revised schedule for Week 14 with the flexed games in bold:

THURSDAY, DECEMBER 8

OAKLAND AT KANSAS CITY 8:25 PM NBC/NFL NETWORK/TWITTER

 SUNDAY, DECEMBER 11

PITTSBURGH AT BUFFALO 1:00 PM CBS
SAN DIEGO AT CAROLINA 1:00 PM FOX

So far, the NFL has not made many moves, but in Week 15 with Pittsburgh at Cincinnati in the Sunday Night Football slot, there’s the potential for a flex including New England at Denver in the 4:25 p.m. window (unless CBS has protected that game).
