The Raiders lost a primetime game Wednesday. Their Week 14, Dec. 9 home meeting with the Pittsburgh Steelers was flexed out of “Sunday Night Football.”
It will be played at 1:25 p.m. instead of 5:20. Deemed more attractive for NBC’s audience, a game between the Los Angeles Rams and Chicago Bears was elevated into the evening slot.
