The Cleveland Browns and New York Giants are headed to prime time.

The NFL announced Wednesday that the battle between the 9-3 Browns and NFC East-leading Giants will take the Sunday Night Football slot in Week 15 on Dec. 20.

The battle between playoff contenders will kick off at 8:20 p.m. ET on NBC. The bout was originally scheduled for an afternoon kickoff.

The change pushes the Dallas Cowboys-San Francisco 49ers matchup out of the prime-time slot to 1 p.m. ET on CBS.

Despite the popularity of the longtime rivals, and the ratings usually garnered, the NFL moving the match out of prime time underscores the disappointing seasons for the injury-ravaged Niners and struggling three-win Cowboys.

Giants have improved, they have something to build on.

Giants might end up a playoff team. They own the tie-breaker with Washington

Good decision. No Cowboys game should be on primetime. And Giants/Browns might actually be a big game. Never thought I'd say that when they were getting ready to draft Mayfield and Barkley.

They usually don't bump shitty teams (Giants) into primetime unless they're considered a good team... *sarcasm off*

Not only did he lose a prime time game, but to a division rival to boot.
How does that swift kick in the nuts feel Jerry.

Everyone thought that the NFC East would be a battle between Dallas and Philadelphia, but it's the Giants and Redsk...The Football Team having great seasons.

Great might not be the right adjective but they both are definitely better than Dallas and Philly. Hell, Washington beat Philly with Haskins.

They should put THAT on prime time.

You want him alive and running the Cowboys for as long as possible...he's doing his Al Davis impersonation at a very high level

Funny thing is Dal/SF was the better game.

Yep. I figured it was a smart move but that game last night was a total snooze fest.

I loved it, but no argument from me....if I didn't care who won, I'd have turned it off.
