The NFL has announced a schedule change for Week 11, moving the Philadelphia Eagles' home game against the Pittsburgh Steelers from a 4:25 p.m. ET start to 1 p.m. ET on November 22. In a corresponding move, the New York Giants' home game against the Jacksonville Jaguars has been shifted from 1 p.m. to 4:25 p.m. ET. Both games will be broadcast on CBS.
The league's decision reflects the current standings: the Giants (5-2-1) and Jaguars (6-2) lead their respective divisions, while the Steelers (6-2) also lead their division. The Eagles (2-7) have lost seven straight games and sit last in the NFC East. The Steelers-Eagles matchup remains an intrastate rivalry with a compelling storyline, as Aaron Rodgers aims to guide the Steelers to their first win in Philadelphia since 1965.
The time swap gives the Jaguars, coached by Liam Coen, an opportunity to showcase their talents before a larger audience. It also represents another chance for the Giants to secure a big win in what has been a surprisingly successful first season for John Harbaugh in New York. On Sunday, Harbaugh led the Giants to their first win in Philadelphia since 2013. The upcoming Jaguars-Giants game could be dubbed the "Tom Coughlin Bowl," as Coughlin was the first coach in Jaguars history, guiding them to AFC title game appearances in 1996 and 1999, and later led the Giants to two Super Bowl victories over the Patriots.
