Anyone going to Lambeau and worrying about Saints/Packers game being flexed? (1 Viewer)

Man I bought tickets to the Saints @ Packers back in June. Anyone else going to that game? I'm scheduled to fly in on 12/22 for the game on 12/23. Now I'm hearing the NFL could flex this game out of Monday Night. This is a bucket list! Anyone else in the same predicament??

Pittsburgh-Baltimore or Washington-Philly are two candidates for a move.

I’d say it’s a legitimate concern. When are you scheduled to fly-in? Maybe push the trip up by a day just in case?

This needs to be a consideration these days anytime you plan an away game trip unfortunately.

If we win the next few they won't flex.

I fly in Sunday at 345pm and leave Tuesday 7am. I also read since they already flexed the Thursday night game they probably will leave this one alone. Call me stupid but the NFL is as joke in this situation. Don't they have 2 games on some Monday nights? You can't even plan. Spent over $4k on this trip for Christmas present w fam

Agreed, that would be a better plan. Make the flex a double-header thing.

They’re not flexing a game we’re playing in.

Most of the locals are anticipating and preparing for the game to be flexed out fwiw...

Steelers-Ravens is stuck. They're playing on Christmas.

They can flex Thursday games now?

Just happened for the first time ever.

The packers have a national fanbase so I don't think the NFL loses anything by having them in the primetime slot. If we keep winning, I think it'll stay put. That said Ravens-Steelers is a huge matchup with division and playoff seeding implications so IF it were to move I would bet that's the one they move it for.

Packers vs Saints games are usually excellent. So I think it stays. Both have strong fan bases
