For the first time ever, CBS will be streaming two regular season NFL games for free, no authentication required.

The first game will be between the Jets and Dolphins October 4th. That game is being played in London and the stream starts at 9:30am eastern.

The second game? You guessed it. The Panthers vs Cowboys Thanksgiving matchup will stream for free on CBS. Pretty damn cool if you ask me.

which is 2:30PM local time. they could have pushed it back an hour or two to make it 4::30GMT/11:30ET/9:30PT.

4:30 GMT would make it 8:30 PDT, so not really much better, and the NFL specifically moved the games earlier in London's day to boost attendance.  The games used to be played late so they would air at usual US times, I think as recently as 2013.

If it were two west coast teams they would probably consider it.  However, it's two east coast teams playing in London.  They probably aren't too worried about the folks west of the Rockies.

my guess is the real reason they moved it is so that it won't conflict with the regular games. Starting it at 9:30ET finishes at Noon:30, which is...wait for it...30min before the regular games are supposed to start. *gasp*

what a coincidence. it's all marketing, so they can showcase the UK games.

      He was so much fun to watch as a player but is a prototypical example of the old "never meet your heroes" adage. Great player, not a great guy.

      Does Bryce deserve credit for game-winning drives?

      Look.... if us BY "haters" give credit about his GWDs...... Will the BY stans also have honest discussion about the 55minutes before the last 5 in which BY has put up 9/20 for 78 yards 0 TDs???

      Hubbard says he might have rushed back

      By Pantherxtreme · Posted

      The way they are handling now is how they should have handled it from the start instead of that you get a series, you a get a series. Let Chuba spell until he had some of his step back.  We definitely could have put a better showing against Buffalo and their weak run defense had we employed the same game plan we did against Green Bay. Saints were determined to stop the run and make Bryce beat them, Atlanta had similar plan and the coaches and Bryce were able to respond.  Rico although didnt have the best rushing game was vital in the passing game and his catch and run help get us into the redzone there at the end of regulation probably should have been a touchdown that out of bounds was a judgement call it wasn't conclusive and thus should have went with the original call on the field.  Roco brings that dawg to the offense that it shorely lacked up until Miami game. Interesting it was his call that help seal the win for us, glad the coaches were listening. Hope they can get a deal done and run it back next year.
