I would think Atlanta. Why not the Panthers?

Is it time for the NFL's television rules to be overhauled?

correct. But it was only for the neutral markets and not the Northeast or DC area
Yeah the game did end before the top of the hour but FOX needed to do some post game part for a few minutes then sign off
Carolina plays in London this coming up week in early morning. NFL Net game except Tampa and Charlotte will be on local station too
panthers game is in london on nfl network. asheville doesn't carry it ota, but Charlotte has to. so falcons it is.
preliminary shows Seattle/Cleveland
So Asheville is airing Houston @ Kansas City, but Charlotte and most of North Carolina is airing New Orleans @ Jacksonville. Think it's because the Texans QB played for Clemson. But HOU/KC is the bigger game.
NFL just flexed Raiders-Texans to 4:25 in a few weeks because..well CBS needs it for blowout protection. Browns could get blown out by NE......
Doubt that's the reason. Clemson isn't a North Carolina school and Asheville is far removed from the South Carolina border. More likely, the NO-Jacksonville game was chosen for eastern and southeastern North Carolina because the Saints are division rivals of the Carolina Panthers.
They swapped that game with Broncos/Indy which moves to the early slot. So there is still 2 late CBS games that week.
Is there a reason why Eagles.Vikings is getting 42% of the country and Rams-49ers is getting 23% on Fox? Given that the 49ers are undefeated, you'd think that the latter game would get more markets.
Looks like an east coast/west coast thing.
FOX has the SH and in most cases the East/Central time zone will show an early FOX game. The exceptions are the markets that HAVE to show a late game (due to home team being on CBS early) or areas to not go against the local team.
% means nothing in my mind. It all depends on which cities you're in. Vikes are on in major cities like Minny, Philly, NYC, Chicago, Charlotte, Detroit, Dallas, Tampa.
Rams/SF game in LA, SF, Houston, Baltimore, KC, New Orleans
seems to me that the 49ers don't get national games on fox even though they are the late game this week.
Lack of headline-grabbing superstars? Sneaking suspicion that they aren't as good as their record would imply?
CBS has the DH this week and the SF game is on FOX.
SF has the national game the next two weeks after that (Thursday week 9 and Monday week 10)
That explains why the Philadelphia-Buffalo game got 33% of the country, but the Carolina-San Francisco game got 22%. Believe the Chargers-Bears game got 18%. And why was Bears/Chargers on Fox to begin with?
Because the Bears were the home team? The Rams also hosted an interconference game today (actually in London, but they were still the home team). Maybe special rules apply when one market has two teams in interconference games in the same time slot.
It gets very complicated. The NFC Buccaneers played the AFC Titans on Fox at 1PM. So there's another AFC home game on Fox.
This rule might apply: The NFL permanently instituted a "cross-flex" policy in 2014, allowing Fox games to be moved to CBS and CBS games moved to Fox to protect each local market; this effectively guarantees each Fox and CBS affiliate in a team's primary market to carry at least one game from the team during the season.
The cross-flex rule, i guess.
I was kind of curious, since Fox had Thom Brennaman and Chris Spielman doing the game in Chicago, and the Chargers are a AFC team. I guess the NFL didn't want too many CBS games this week.
