The NFL has flexed the Week 14 matchup between the Buffalo Bills and the Cincinnati Bengals — shifting the start time from the originally scheduled 4:25 PM ET down to 1:00 PM ET.
Game details:
-
Date: Sunday, December 7, 2025
-
Kickoff time: 1:00 PM Eastern Time

This flex‑scheduling decision brings the game into the early-afternoon “traditional slot.” For the 2025 season, this marks the first time this particular Bills–Bengals matchup has been moved to 1:00 PM — changing from its late-window slot.
According to league rules, Sunday afternoon games may be flexed between the 1:00 PM and 4:25 PM ET windows in the regular‑season stretch.
For fans planning watch parties or tuning in live, note that the earlier kickoff makes this game part of an early-afternoon triple stretch for Buffalo — a scheduling pattern the team embraces.
Stay tuned for any further updates on starting lineups, weather conditions, or broadcast changes as the date approaches.
