The games arent constantly the juiciest match-ups, however the NFL has developed a routine where the new week begins with a Thursday night contest.
Except today, there is no Josh Allen vs. Patrick Mahomes face-off on “Thursday Night Football.” How come?
On the NFLs original schedule, the Buffalo Bills were set to host the Kansas City Chiefs to begin Week 6. Nevertheless, the Bills had their Week 5 video game against the Tennessee Titans held off till Tuesday because of the Titans COVID-19 break out.
One of the problems about the Thursday night video games in basic is that groups do not have sufficient time to prepare after playing the previous Sunday. With the Bills having their game moved to Tuesday, the NFL chose that playing again two days later on would be impossible..
As an outcome, the Bills-Chiefs game was pressed to 5 p.m. ET on Monday, with the regularly set up Monday night video game– Arizona at Dallas– at its routine time, 8 p.m. ET.
The Bills and Chiefs werent the only groups affected by numerous modifications that were needed to reorganize the NFL schedule. 6 other groups had their future schedules adjusted on Sunday..
The NFL also revealed previously today that its canceling this seasons Pro Bowl, which was set up to be played the week between the championship game games and the Super Bowl. That could offer one extra week to utilize if more regular-season video games require to be delayed later on in the year.
