The schedule makers did a pretty solid job this year putting interesting teams into the late season prime windows. Fox just made a midday Week 14 move, moving the Bills / Bengals up to 1:00 pm and putting Packers /Bears as the 4:25 national game of the week.

Week 15 is getting some scrutiny. There are a boatload of huge matchups in the Sunday daytime slots:

1:00 - Bills/Pats (CBS)
1:00 - Chargers/Chiefs (CBS)
4:25 - Colts/Seahawks (CBS)
4:25 - Packers/Broncos (CBS)
4:25 - Lions/Rams (FOX) - yes, it looks like a double doubleheader day

Meanwhile the Sunday and Monday night games are less attractive record wise but have two national teams involved: Viking/Dallas SNF, Dolphins/Steelers MNF

The league rule allows Week 15 moves to be announced as late as Monday of that week. A Cowboys loss at Detroit could put that game in prime position to be moved, as would a Steelers loss at Baltimore. With CBS holding a four-pack of juicy matchups, we could see Bills/Pats and Colts/Seahawks get moved (would think CBS would want to keep Chiefs and Packers games).

Definitely some unexpected amazing matchups for that week.
 
The Saturday games in Week 16 have flipped, with Eagles/Wash moved up to the earlier 5:00 pm slot and Bears/Packers moved into the primetime spot.

Bengals/Dolphins is still sitting in the SNF slot for now......
 
I expected a flex but NE/Balt was my third choice. Fox has the single game regional schedule and has Tampa/Car at 1, LAC/Dallas at 1, and Jax/Denver at 4:05. I would've preferred any of those three over a Baltimore team that looks thisclose to quitting. Jax/Denver would've been my first choice but if Fox got to hold their best 4:05 game then give me the NFC South head to head clash.
