One other change to the Eagles’ schedule

For the second week in a row, the NFL has flexed a Philadelphia Eagles sport to an earlier time slot.

Beforehand it was the Eagles’ Week 8 street sport towards the Cincinnati Bengals getting moved up from 4:25 PM Japanese to a 1:00 PM begin time.

Now it’s the Eagles’ Week 9 house sport towards the Jacksonville Jaguars being bumped up from an 8:20 PM begin on Sunday Night time Soccer to the late sport window at 4:05 PM. The matchup will now be televised on CBS as an alternative of NBC as initially supposed.

Whereas the Eagles had been bumped out in favor of the Caleb Williams vs. Jayden Daniels in Week 8, they’re being changed with … Anthony Richardson vs. Sam Darnold … in Week 9 when the Minnesota Vikings host the Indianapolis Colts. OK, then.

Type of attention-grabbing to see the Eagles get flexed out once they’ve received their final two video games to advance to 4-2. However a part of the equation in Week 9 is that the Jacksonville Jaguars have appeared actually dangerous. Doug Pederson may be very a lot on the recent seat, although he did purchase himself a bit extra time with a Week 7 win.

As somebody who stays up late working after Eagles sport, I’m selfishly not too torn up about earlier begin occasions. However I get that it’s annoying for out of market individuals who profit from the sport being on nationwide tv.

What say you in regards to the flexing?
