What do you think the chances the Vikes get flexed out of their 7:20pm Sunday 12/31 game vs the Packers?
If they were to get flexed out, would they play at the same time or do they trade time slots with the other matchup that took their time slot?
0% as of right now. Packers are getting kinda hot.
I answered my 2nd question
“During the Flex Scheduling Windows, the games initially scheduled for Sunday Night Football (on NBC), Monday Night Football (ESPN or ABC), and Thursday Night Football (on Amazon Prime) are tentatively scheduled and subject to change; Only Sunday afternoon games (or those listed as TBD) are eligible to be moved to Sunday night, Monday night, or Thursday night, in which case the initially scheduled Sunday, Monday, or Thursday night game would be moved to Sunday afternoon”

And my 1st question guess, Prob won’t happen if vik pack both in playoff hunt
There have not been a lot of flexes this year, the networks have not been super willing to swap games
Why would they flex a game with two teams battling for a playoff spot?
That could change for the packers 😉 and ravens vs dolphins could look more exciting to the nfl.
“The second is all the way in Week 17 — the Sunday Night Football matchup between the Packers and the Vikings on Jan. 1. It all depends if the Vikings continue rolling with Joshua Dobbs at quarterback following the season-ending injury to Kirk Cousins. As it stands now, the Vikings are solidly in the hunt for a playoff spot, despite their loss to the Denver Broncos Sunday night.
CBS has two potentially compelling games that same weekend — Cincinnati Bengals vs. Chiefs, and Miami Dolphins vs. Baltimore Ravens. CBS can only protect one from being flexed, which would leave Dolphins-Ravens open to a move into prime time.
“If those two teams are both at 10-11-12 wins, and there is significant AFC seeding possibilities left to be determined, and if Green Bay-Minnesota isn’t quite as compelling as we hoped it would be, I could see [Dolphins-Ravens] as being a potential move,” North said.”
