They did the same thing last week. If an NFC East team is playing, I guess they assume that everyone in America is desperate to see it.Two games on right now.Everyone in the country is getting NYG @ Dallas on free TV.So naturally, we'll get to see one play per quarter in the OAK/KC game.
Way to completely miss the point. The Dallas game is right there anytime we want to see it.
Bloody HELL!!
It is due to playoff baseball. Things get back to normal next week.
I know the World Series is the explanation... but why?These afternoon games are over by 7:45. The WS starts at 8. Where is the conflict?
Also doesn't explain why there are only three 4:00 games next week, after the World Series is over.
There is usually only three or four 4pm games per week anyways.
Bye weeks are a better explanation. NFL doesn't look at the Red zone subscriber yet. They look at marquee matchups nationally. And a raiders game usually gets thrown in as well.
I'm not a raiders fan, but there were two games on and everyone in the entire country had the Dallas/new York game on fox. I would have liked the option to see the other game.
They showed a lot of it. Did a pretty good job switching back and forth IMO. Based on what we saw, I doubt we missed much. They seem like they try to show exciting stuff. Not Cassel leading his team to a 3 and out for the 5th time.
Being in Kansas City, and forced to watch the ####fest that was OAK/KC, I was pleased to see Redzone on Giants/Cowboys most of the time. So, no, not everyone in the entire country had DAL/NYG on Fox.
The Polish kicker lining up another field goal is exiting.
Yea. One minor glitch in an otherwise incredibly awesome system.And......here's the ONE thing that sucks about the Red Zone channel: they go off the air at 8 p.m. Eastern time, even if there are games in progress.
I assume this is out of their control. Probably a deal with NBC having all rights after 8 pm.And......here's the ONE thing that sucks about the Red Zone channel: they go off the air at 8 p.m. Eastern time, even if there are games in progress.
They should have taken this into account when they bumped the afternoon games to 4:25 (instead of 4:05).Also, the unbalanced schedule is getting to be annoying. I didn't mind the lack of late-afternoon games during baseball season, but there's nothing else going on right now and it just makes absolutely NO SENSE to have EIGHT early games and only THREE late games.I assume this is out of their control.

This week only one game went past and all i did was switch to Fox and they had the ending.I will admit I miss the TD montage they do at the end with that pounding music backdrop.Yea.

Did you try to get them to prorate it for you? Seems reasonable.'bweiser said:
Have to say this is far better for overseas fans like me. More games the merrier at the 1pm slot, just a shame they pushed the main game back to 4.25 as that means games that go to OT like the Pats/Jets game the other week mean I have to stay up until past 1am'Sea Duck said:They should have taken this into account when they bumped the afternoon games to 4:25 (instead of 4:05).Also, the unbalanced schedule is getting to be annoying.

It gets even worse in Week 14, when we'll have TEN early games but still only THREE late games. It's almost as if they want me to stop watching football in the afternoons...
Why do i pay ten dollars?
i did not, only because it was the first sunday and i didn't realize i wasn't getting it as part of the sports package.i might make the call this week.
Cry about it with your chums at the pub, ya geezer
