Giants-Packers MNF Flex Possibility

LTIsTheGreatest : 11/16/2023 11:34 am
I think we are all assuming that this game will get flexed out of MNF but one caveat is that the Jets also play at Metlife that Sunday against Houston. SO the only way this game is flexed out is for the Jets Houston game which is also not an attractive matchup. I'm guessing that featuring rookie QB CJ Stroud would be a selling point to this game getting switched to MNF and the GIants game moved to Sunday . Will be interesting to see how this plays out. Decision needs to be made I think at least 12 days before the scheduled game
Didn't think MNF

was a flex option. SNF definitely is and they were thinking TNF but that is nutso.
The NFL has kept some real dogs in prime time games

this year and New York and Green Bay have big audiences, so I think it stays
I'm torn on this.

I hate night games, so normally I'd hope for it to be flexed to Sunday afternoon so I can watch it without having to worry about being tired at work on Tuesday.
But, given the dumpster fire of a season the Giants are having, I could probably skip it if it remains on MNF without any guilt.
The game could actually be a chance for a win, so I guess getting flexed to Sunday is the more desirable option.
I hope it stays

The option of Flexing MNF games was just added this season. Only for weeks 12-17

I'm wrong, ignore me

I really hope it is flexed out of MNF, not likely with the Jets playing Sunday.

Giants and Packers fans living outside of those limited markets would care. People with tickets to the Giants game and whatever game goes to Monday would care.

The only people who want this are network executives and NFL owners, two greedy group I don't care about.
Really hope its flexed

The thought of sitting in the cold and taking the next day off for the product that will be on the field annoys the sh*t out of me. I know its not likely though.
No way

I'm watching this and listening to Troy Aikman tear apart the Giants, which he normally does anyway. It's okay for us Giants fans to do it, but I won't listen to him do it.

That’s fair I do empathize with the fans trying to go to the game. Flexing is bullshit I was just joking about how awful the game will be.

of broadcast planning saying that game is "on the table" to be flexed, apparently with the Jets possibly being moved into the MNF spot. Seems like a pretty easy choice to move us out of there.

MNF but it doesn’t look promising.
