The Bucs had already been scheduled to wear their orange-and-white "throwback" uniforms for this game, for the first time in years -- the reason being that it's a matchup against a team from the old NFC Central, their home during the couple of decades they wore those uniforms. Moving the game to CBS would have made it even more old-school.
(For some years, the NFL had a "one-shell rule" for a team's helmets, which meant the Bucs couldn't switch between their regular pewter-colored helmets and the white helmets that are part of the throwback uniform set, so they opted not to wear the throwbacks at all. That rule has been eliminated after it was shown that it had no appreciable effect on player safety.) > On Oct 3, 2023, at 2:19 PM, 'Bob Jersey' via TVorNotTV > <tvornottv@googlegroups.com> wrote: > > In week 6 (Oct 15th), Detroit at Tampa Bay (now both 3-1) will start at > 4.25pm instead of 1... but remain on Fox. > https://thespun.com/more/top-stories/nfl-announces-schedule-change-for-week-6 > (link) > B > > -- > You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups > "TVorNotTV" group. > To unsubscribe from this group and stop receiving emails from it, send an > email to tvornottv+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com > <mailto:tvornottv+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com>. > To view this discussion on the web visit > https://groups.google.com/d/msgid/tvornottv/c338ed97-7095-4c06-89ea-420a45504a35n%40googlegroups.com > > <https://groups.google.com/d/msgid/tvornottv/c338ed97-7095-4c06-89ea-420a45504a35n%40googlegroups.com?utm_medium=email&utm_source=footer>. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TVorNotTV" group.
