(CBS Broadcasting, Inc.) |
The NFL announced on Thursday that the New York Jets vs. Buffalo Bills game that was scheduled to play on Sunday afternoon at Ralph Wilson Stadium in Buffalo (original start time would had been at 1:05pm ET on CBS part of their Week 12 doubleheader) has been relocated to Ford Field in Detroit, Michigan due to an massive snow-flooding over in the upper New York area, rescheduled to Monday night at 7:05pm ET and will be televised locally by CBS in New York City and Buffalo markets. The game will also air nationally on DirecTV as part of their NFL Sunday Ticket package. Network programming will air on CBS's sister station WLNY in New York.
Results that Jets-Bills will complete against another Monday night game (which is regularly nationally on ESPN) of the Baltimore Ravens-New Orleans Saints game, which but game will not kick-off until 8:30pm ET although game coverage will begin at 8:15pm ET.
This is not the first that an postponed-Sunday NFL game was played on Monday night outside of the ESPN telecast (and on the same location), back in 2010 FOX moved the New York Giants-Minnesota Vikings to Monday (the same practice aired in team markets) in Detroit after an roof collapsed at Minneapolis Metrodome and which saw the end of (then-Viking) Brett Favre's 297 consecutive regular season games as starting quarterback while completing against the Ravens-Houston Texans game over on ESPN.
On the other hand, FOX in the New York market originally scheduled to air the Arizona Cardinals-Seattle Seahawks at 4:00pm ET, but due to the Jets not playing on that day and the Giants will play later tonight over on NBC against the Dallas Cowboys, will now air the early game of the Detroit Lions-New England Patriots game at 1:00pm ET instead.
The NFL Network will replay Jets-Bills on Tues, Nov 25 at 12am ET following Total Access.
