I think a lot is the knee and the new OC. I mean what we're those play calls after the Kelce fumble? 

I think we ran 3 straight WR screen's. 

Yeah that was very questionable play calling. Didn’t take advantage of the turnover at all. I didn’t understand that series.

He's averaging more YPG with a higher completion percentage and is on pace for more rushing first downs and more rushing touchdowns than he had last season.

If this is a down year, it isn't down by much.

Good points, you’re right he's actually better this year!!

When does the Monday night flex start? For some reason, I thought it was Thanksgiving week, but I see Bears vs Vikings are on Monday...

I don't think they can flex them out of a Monday night game. I could for sure be wrong though, I thought the "flexing" was for SNF... then later on when they start playing some games on Saturdays, they flex some games there.

You are probably correct. I just had it in my head they did it for Monday nights as well.

Was just talking with a buddy about this and we were curious about flex stuff as well. Would be nice if they could have flexed Eagles/Bills but I guess they can't.

I just went and looked down the road as well. Weird to see 3 games on Christmas this year. That's a giant middle finger to the NBA from the NFL....haha.

They did that last year, too. And two years ago there were 2 games on Xmas... I was at the Colts/Cards game in AZ lol... 

CLE vs Green Bay earlier that day. 

And looking at it... Dec 21st(1 game), Dec 23rd (2 games), Dec 24th (10 games), Dec 25th (3 games)... magical. 

I would expect Denver vs. NE to be flexed out of SNF on Dec 24th. Detriot vs Minnesota, CLE vs. Houston probably decent options.

I'm a Shaq fan so this one catches me off guard but maybe it's a new coach getting his culture in place type of move. I'm sure someone will grab him soon...shoot I wouldn't mind if my Bears gave a sniff. My only problem with Shaq is he got paid and still yapped.

He is a shell of what he used to be.  It’s kinda sad.  His injuries have robbed him of his explosiveness and that play making ability.  It says a lot that he has seen his minutes declined.  It kinda reminds me of Steve Emtman.

Actually reminds me of Bob Sanders. The aggressiveness and willingness to sacrifice his body, made him one of the best for a brief career.

55-60 million over 3 years in money saved is just too big to pass up for our 3rd best LB. 

Can easily sign Pitt this way.

You were actually correct. Monday night is now able to flex starting week 12
