Are you in Seattle? Lucky you. Kickoff is usually 1:25 PM local. That’s prime coffee-and-rain-drone weather. Perfect for the 12th Man.
What Channel Are the Broncos and Seahawks on Today?
Are you in New York? That same game starts at 4:25 PM. You’ve got time to nap, eat a bagel, and freak out. Are you in Hawaii? Wake up at 6:25 AM. Yes, people do that. They bring poi and small TVs to the beach. Ridiculous dedication.
The worst? If you’re in London. A 1:00 PM Seattle kickoff is 8:00 PM there. You’re watching football while the rest of your block is asleep. You become a zombie at work the next day. Totally worth it.
The “NFL Flex” Monster
Here’s where it gets annoying. The NFL has a “flex scheduling” power. They can move your game to a different time. Why? To maximize TV ratings. It’s like the league is a mischievous wizard.
If the Seahawks are playing a terrible team, good luck. Your game might slide to the 4:00 PM slot. If they’re playing the 49ers? Boom. Sunday Night Football. That means a 5:20 PM Pacific kickoff. Your dinner plans? Canceled.
Pro tip: Check the NFL’s schedule update every Tuesday. That’s when the flex demon awakens. Don’t get caught off guard.
