NFL Make Change To Week 11 Schedule


The job of the NFL schedule-maker must be a hard one, as it's hard to predict exactly which teams will be good all season long and produce the best matchups in prime time, but thankfully, the NFL is very flexible in the matter, and we've seen it now for the first time in 2022, as they've officially moved the matchup of the Kansas City Chiefs and Los Angeles Chargers to prime time Sunday Night Football in Week 11. 

This one will swap places with the original Cincinnati Bengals vs. Pittsburgh Steelers AFC North divisional matchup, with Pittsburgh being arguably one of the NFL's biggest disappointments thus far in 2022. The Chiefs and Chargers on the other hand are both playing well, with a 6-2 and 5-3 record respectively, there's a very good chance that despite it being in Week 11, this one could go a long way to deciding the fate of the AFC West in 2022. 

With several matchups down the stretch on primetime looking unappealing for one reason or another, this is likely one of many changes, and the flexibility that the NFL has shown in this matter should certainly be commended.
