Overview

• The NFL has adjusted its Week 8 schedule, moving the Eagles-Bengals game to a 1 p.m. ET start, reducing its national visibility.
• The Bears-Commanders game has been flexed to the 4:25 p.m. ET slot, now reaching a broader audience with CBS's top commentary team.
• Rookie quarterbacks Caleb Williams and Jayden Daniels, both Heisman winners, are key attractions in the Bears-Commanders matchup.
• Both the Bears and Commanders have exceeded early season expectations, each starting with a 4-2 record.
• The Eagles' demotion reflects their slow start to the season, with future schedule adjustments possible if current trends continue.
