The Arizona Cardinals’ game time against the Carolina Panthers in Charlotte on Oct. 30 has been moved to be part of the morning slate of games.
The game was originally to be played at 1:25 p.m. Arizona time, but the NFL changed the schedule, so the game now will start at 10 a.m. The Atlanta Falcons and Green Bay Packers game was flexed to the 1:25 p.m. slot.
The Cardinals and Panthers looked to be a marquee matchup, with it being a rematch of the 2015 NFC Championship game.
However, both teams struggled out of the gates — Panthers are 1-4 and the Cardinals are 2-3 — Fox felt like the Falcons and Packers would make a better game of the week.
