4 teams this season had 0 prime time games: Cardinals, Colts, Falcons and Texans. Colts played an A.M. game in Germany, Falcons played an A.M. game in London, and Cardinals have played both the Sunday 1st slot (1pm/12pm/11am/10am) and Sunday 2nd slot (4-4:30 pm/3-3:30 pm/2-2:30 pm/1-1:30pm).

This Sunday, the Texans had been scheduled for that Sunday 2nd Slot against the Broncos, but it was flexed back to the Sunday 1st Slot. This game is the only game on the Texans schedule that wasn’t initially at that Sunday 1st Slot. And unless one of the last 5 games gets flexed, the Texans will have played every game at the Noon time slot.

There is also a very real chance, that if the Texans make it into the playoffs, that they play on Sunday Jan 14th at Noon… The Texans, CJ Stroud, HC DeMeco Ryans all have a very real chance of playing an entire season @Noon on Sundays, unless the make the divisional round.

Will this be the first time an NFL team had this consistent of a game schedule? I know I’m counting my eggs before they hatch, as the Week 18 schedule isn’t out but hopefully the NFL sees the gloriousness of this.

      Chiefs are on SNF against the packers this week, and MNF against the patriots in a few weeks, and besides the games being in Lambeau and Foxboro, I can’t figure out who at the schedule makers thought either of those was a primetime worthy matchup this year.
