So weird that the Boston area is getting SF @ Car instead of the Pitt @cBuf or the Mia @ NYJ game

 

Business decision by local CBS station since Fox has the 1pm Toilets game

Pats have the early FOX game so by default they get the late CBS game.  (This week CBS only has the single.)

 

 

EDIT: beaten to it by @LeviF!!!

TV Map Matching Game:

 

I got all of them without looking at the list below the map…but there are a number purple splotches that I’m not sure I understand. Is there a local connection to SF vs Carolina in those cities or is it because of some blackout rule that forces those areas to get the late game?

yes, basically.  See above two posts.  CBS doesn’t want to show a game in those markets at 1PM when pretty much everyone’s eyes are gonna be glued on the FOX early game.

Why the hell is what should be a blowout the national game? Romo is so annoying.

As mentioned when a team is playing early on opposite network, they will typically show late game instead.  Kind of strange as it's then going up against the "Big, national 4:25 game"

 

Romo is here because it's still the best CBS game that day.  Could maybe make a case that Miami-Jets is better matchup, but Steelers are also a large followed team too.

 

Damm it why the #%&@ is Carolina playing @#^&(&%  late!

Any chance you could post the uniform combinations here as well?

 

They wear what the offense wears in practice leading up to the game. Definitely blue jerseys and some are wearing blue shorts. Probably all blues again or maybe blue over white. It will be one of the two.

davis does not appear to have an ankle problem in that shot.

Please no more blue on blue and red on red. They're terrible.

I love the red on red for one game a year. Not as a permanent uniform but once a year is nice. Plus, I just got a red Josh Allen jersey for Christmas last year so I don't want them parting ways with those

Now that I dropped DirecTV, I'm even more glad I moved back to Dallas from Lubbock.

 

Seeing the last few coverage maps, it seems the NFL thinks West Texas is all Texans fans. Dallas on the other hand, they get a little Bills bubble carved out for them each week! 

 

For that, I'm eternally grateful 😆

For you uniform freaks, this a cool site that fills in as the week goes on.  In some cases you can find a uni matchup weeks ahead.

Yeah, that site is great, been using it for years.  What’s odd is that some NFL teams release their uniform plans for the entire season while others (like the Bills) try to create this week-to-week drama.  I mean, it doesn’t really matter to us as fans, but it’s fun to look at.

 

Of note:  the Pats*** are wearing my favorite iteration of their uniform this week.
