The Kansas City Chiefs are going to be put right back in the national spotlight once again.

After playing on Sunday Night Football against the Tennessee Titans in what was an overtime thriller, the Chiefs will be back on the same network at the same time, very soon.

Oftentimes in the NFL, the prime-time games will be flexed out, which means if they think that game won't do as well as another, they basically swap game times and coverage in terms of what network is doing the game.

In Week 11, the Cincinnati Bengals and Pittsburgh Steelers were supposed to play on Sunday Night Football on NBC. Instead, the Kansas City Chiefs and Los Angeles Chargers are now flexed into that spot.

Some people will be mad at this, but it happens a lot more often than people think.

Also, it's a lot easier to sell Justin Herbert and Patrick Mahomes than it is to sell Joe Burrow and Kenny Pickett.
