Chiefs Will the Week 12 Sunday Night Game remain as Steelers @ Chiefs?

HBKChiefs · 11-08-2011, 04:45 PM

Will this game be meaningful enough for the NFL to keep it as scheduled or will one or both teams stumble, causing the NFL to flex another game in? Or will the NFL schedule another game regardless of both teams being in the playoff hunt?

I'd like to know too as I can't go to the game if it's a 12 pm game. ****in work, ****in co-workers taking time off when I have shit to do.

I voted but I'll worry about that game when we get there. Let's see how we do against the Donks and Pats first.

I completely agree with what you are saying, but the NFL will keep/schedule this game out by next Tuesday I believe. So I wanted to get an idea on how people are feeling before then...

This game will have implications. Not to mention, the last time we played the Steelers at arrowhead we upset them pretty severely....

It was an upset, but not severely. Chiefs won in OT

You are thinking of 2003

I wont hold my breath for it.

On second thought, this will air, the league would need a better reason than KC to pull their beloved steelers.

I think we already decided this, not too much to choose from.

Worst-case scenario...the Chiefs will be 5-5.
That would still be a compelling game.

Buffalo at the Jets and New England at Philadelphia are the only games that would bump us. I assume the Patriots at Eagles have been protected. I can't find any info on which ganes have been and which have not, but if I recollect correctly a network (in this case CBS, since both Buffalo and New England are AFC teams) can only protect one in any given week.
If we blow this one against Denver, being flexed out for Buffalo at the Jets wouldn't suprise me at all.

DaFace posted in the other thread that NE @ Philly and Chicago at Oakland had been protected (I can't seem to find that info anywhere) so we only really have to worry about Buffalo at the Jetts

Personally, I'd be happy if every game was played at 10 am pacific time.

heh.

Amen.

With that said though, i think the game will stay prime time as long as we beat the Donks on Sunday. Both teams will still have something to play for, even if they drop one to the Pats.
