Booooo!!! Ravens/Browns or Niners/Jags would have been such a better matchup! No doubt CBS and Fox blocked them from flexing.

The Ravens week 10 game on Nov 12 at home vs. Cleveland would not be flexed to Sunday night because they are at home vs. Cincinnati in week 11 on Thursday night Nov 16.
Flexing the week 10 game from 1 PM to 8:20 PM would give them around 7 hours less time to recover for the Thursday night game. With a 1 PM start time in week 10, the players can be home early in the evening for a normal night’s sleep. For a Sunday night game, the players would not be home until well after midnight.
BTW, including the TNF game in week 11, the Ravens have 3 more prime time games scheduled, which happen to be all of their remaining away games: week 12 at the LA Chargers on SNF, week 15 at Jacksonville on SNF and week 16 at SF on MNF Christmas night.
