The NFL’s announcement led with the news: In Week 14, Sunday Night Football will feature the Miami Dolphins visiting the Los Angeles Chargers, flexing the game that was on the schedule out of there.
But which game was flexed out?
That would be the Kansas City Chiefs and Denver Broncos. Meaning, as so many people tweeted (see below), that the NFL decided to get rid of a nationally-televised primetime Patrick Mahomes game for Tua Tagovailoa vs. Justin Herbert.
That’s right: Russell Wilson is just that bad this year! And as I mentioned, everyone made that same observation when the news broke:
Russell Wilson is so unwatchably terrible the NFL flexed PATRICK MAHOMES out of prime time https://t.co/ZtbFHsUqUJ

Russell Wilson is so bad that his presence in a game is enough to bump Patrick Mahomes out of primetime. Never thought I'd see the day.

If you told me Patrick Mahomes vs Russell Wilson would be flexed out of primetime before the season no way I would have believed it. https://t.co/TGvenIHLnn
