Cardinals vs 49ers game on 12/26 will be televised in Phoenix

K

The game will air in most of the country only on Amazon Prime Video and Twitch. However, per NFL rules, the game will air in Phoenix on Channel 10. Which is somewhat interesting in that the game is being produced for Amazon by CBS, and airing on a Fox O&O here and an NBC O&O in the Bay Area.

Will my new fave announcer Aqib Talib be calling the game again in his majestic Scotch tape suit?! We hope to play that drinking game where you take a shot every time he says, "MAN!"
Blotto by halftime! :)
 
They haven't announced who'll be calling the games yet. Check The506.com later on today. They usually have them posted by Wednesday night.
 
Andrew Catalon and James Lofton will be calling the game. The506.com just put up the schedules.

Not unlike Monday Night Football games that are produced by ESPN and sometimes air on local NBC or Fox stations. I believe Sirius play by play is done by Westwood One.

Deals are deals. CBS, NBC, ABC, and Fox have the production infrastructure to do these kinds of things. Amazon just rents their existing infrastructure and puts it on their platform. No need to reinvent the wheel a fifth time.
