Steelers-Browns Game Not Flexed to Prime Time

The Pittsburgh Steelers are set to play against the Cleveland Browns on Sunday, Nov. 1 from Acrisure Stadium, with the game scheduled to kick off at 1 p.m. on CBS. The NFL decided not to flex the game to prime time as the deadline approached. Although the Steelers and Browns had a Thursday Night Football match against each other in Week 4, CBS decided to protect the game based on its previous media rights deal.

This is the Steelers' fourth prime-time matchup this season, as they have also played against the Bengals, Texans, and Jaguars in recent weeks. The game will be challenging for the Acrisure Stadium staff, who will have to quickly change over from hosting the Pitt Panthers the night before. In addition to this matchup, CBS will broadcast several other high-profile games, including the Baltimore Ravens vs. Buffalo Bills and Kansas City Chiefs vs. Denver Broncos.
