In theory, I think the Week 12 matchup against the Los Angeles Rams to be the most likely to be flexed, but it's hard to imagine NBC wanting to switch from the Packers-Steelers game, even if Brett Hundley is playing quarterback for Green Bay.

The Week 11 game against Washington would be good, but the Sunday night game that week is Cowboys-Eagles. So, that's highly unlikely to change. Week 13 against the Panthers will be important, but NBC has Eagles-Seahawks that Sunday night.

The Week 16 game against the Falcons could be a big one, but that one can't be flexed because there isn't a Sunday night game on Christmas Eve. There are two Monday games, but the rules say games can't be flexed to Monday.

So, after thinking about this while writing this response, I guess it's unlikely the Saints will have a game flexed this year -- but certainly not impossible.

I was just coming to post this, but yeah I think rams very well could be flexed. NBC is gonna scrap that matchup. Week 16, the actual SNF game is Minnesota@GB and that one is luckier because the only other options are Atlanta@us and LA@Tennessee but if Atlanta is not in it then I don't think either hold enough weight to pull Minnesota/Green Bay.
