New York, NY (My Sportsbook) - The NFL has moved the December 17 game between the Kansas City Chiefs and the San Diego Chargers to 8:15 p.m. (et) as part of the flexible scheduling system. At 10-2, the Chargers are tied for the NFL's best record and lead the AFC West by three games over both Kansas City and Denver. The league's new scheduling plan tries to ensure that Sunday night nationally- televised games on NBC and the late-afternoon Sunday time slot for FOX and CBS will feature quality matchups. The league must give at least 12 days notice for the switch, with the exception of Week 17 when a six-day period is in effect. The NFL also moved the Philadelphia Eagles/New York Giants game to 4:15 p.m. (et) and the Miami Dolphins/Buffalo Bills contest to 4:05 p.m. (et). |
