Seems like a scheduling SNAFU not to have this as at least a late game. You'd think the NFL would want two of the younger, exciting teams to have plenty of eyes on them.

Mahomes to look at.
KC still have 5 "prime time" games to play. That's including these last afternoon games. Also, all 5 of the prior games have been late afternoon or evening games. That's 12 of 17 games will more or less be games with a national audience.
One last thing. Home games in SF (San Jose) have to be 3 , 3:35, 3:30 games because they are on the Left Coast. They certainly don't want 2 up and coming hot shot QBs to take away viewership from
Mahomes .
I mean what if Taylor Swift showed up and SHE didn't get the attention of a national audience. It might cause the collapse of the NFL.
