Bengals-Cardinals into prime time under flex scheduling

AP 4:27 p.m. EST November 2, 2015

NEW YORK (AP) — The NFL will use its flexible scheduling option the first week it's available this season, moving a matchup between Cincinnati and Arizona into prime time.

The league announced Monday that the Bengals-Cardinals game Nov. 22 will be on "Sunday Night Football." Cincinnati is currently undefeated and Arizona is 6-2.

It replaces the originally scheduled Chiefs-Chargers matchup, which moves to 4:05 p.m. EST on CBS.

Week 11 is the earliest the NFL can switch out the Sunday night games.

The key NFC North matchup between the Packers and Vikings on Nov. 22 will also switch from 1 p.m. to 4:25 p.m. on Fox. Green Bay is 6-1 and Minnesota is 5-2.

The league also said Monday that the Nov. 15 game between the Bears and Rams will move from Fox to CBS. This is the second season the NFL can "cross-flex" some Sunday afternoon games from one network to the other.

So, we move from Fox to CBS, but we stay at 1pm EST.

If we keep winning, I think we will be flexed into Sunday night for Week 13. We play AZ in STL and the current Sunday Night Game is Colts at Steelers. Depends on how it goes for the teams in the meantime.
