Is the game being broadcast on a local Charlotte channel?

To answer your thread title question:  yes it is.

ESPN games will ALWAYS be aired on a local broadcast partner in the local participating team's market. If ABC isn't available for whatever reason, than a different station will be utilized.  In this case, WAXN is owned by WSOC, so it's natural for that station to be the partner

If the station is not available on the pay-tv service of your choice, then it's still available - for free - via an antenna

WAXN is considered a "strong" signal by the FCC

Zero signal for me in Davidson. Not one bar. Lol

There's a small chance that WSOC/WAXN might put the game on streaming, but doubtful if NFL isn't in their streaming contract.

ABC says they're streaming the other MNF game (but signin from your paid service may be required for viewing -- no word on whether the Panthers game would be included in that, but doubtful due to it not being on the primary ABC signal)

Started a 10 day YouTube TV trial. Will cancel after the game.

 

Man, how far this franchise has fallen. I've never seen a MNF not be on WSOC. 

That's an ABC network thing, likely not a WSOC choice.    And not unique to Panthers -- there are MNF doubleheaders for multiple weeks, the same situation is likely playing out in all those cities too.

The best advice I can offer is to call the WSOC programming line and complain about the Panthers game being on TV64 vs on the main ABC channel.  They'll probably reply that "it was available on 64", but you can still make the case that the local market game would be better on the bigger signal

ABC, like ESPN, is owned by Disney. Odds are if one is blocked/not available, the other is as well.

If you cannot get a decent OTA signal get a decent antenna

 

I quit satellite over a year ago when it kept getting more and more expensive and have not looked back

 

Only problem I have is getting amazon prime games

 

I can stream any streaming service until anazon prime Thursday games and then it buffers to the point of being unwatchable

The game tonight is ESPN. However, these are the local affiliates in the Panther tv network, and the over-the-air broadcast should be on these channels. Disregard the day and time columns.

WSOC is an ABC affiliate, and also runs TV64.   They may have been told that the 8p MNF game needs to go on the WSOC signal.  (If WSOC didn't own TV64, then a different channel - likely an independent station - would be the recipient of the ESPN signal)

      I think it's strange that you still can't see where I'm coming from, and I guarantee you don't have more faith in him than I do.  You're looking at him in a vacuum, not about the team around him and the likely offensive game plans this season. We're going to be a run first team with 3 receiving options better than any of the other players on past rookie 1k seasons. If you can't understand that, then it's a you problem, not a me problem. Arizona's previous basketball coach, Sean Miller, used to do something at the first team meeting of every season and I think it's soooooooooo applicable to this situation. He'd have every player right down how many minutes/points they expected to average that season and then he'd add them up.  It would show that if they all hit those numbers, we'd score like 125 points a game and need to be playing 7 guys at a time to get their minutes. That's pretty much how you guys are putting your T-Mac expectations out there, looking solely at the player and what you think he should be able to do, not how the offense will operate as a whole. Every yard one player gets is one less yard someone else can get.  It sounds like I just have more faith in Thielen, XL, and Coker this year than most everyone else.  But a big reason for that faith is because of T-Mac and how much he'll open things up for the rest of them and Bryce being the type of QB to take the open easy passes than force it to his #1. As I've said, if any one of the following happens... Thielen ends the season sub 700 yards, XL or Coker end up sub 500 yards... Then yes, I will then shift my expectations for T-Mac's rookie year to be at least 1,000 yard season. But since I have faith in those other 3 having solid seasons, it tempers my expectations yardage totals for T-Mac this year, and this year alone.  I've also clearly stated many times that I think he's going to reach 10 TDs. If T-Mac ends the season with 800 yards and 10 TDs, while Thielen gets 900-1,000 and XL/Coker each get around 600, I don't see any world where that is a failure for a rookie season for T-Mac. Because again, we're talking about expectations, not what is possible.  So given the other WR options, I can't EXPECT T-Mac to get to the 1k mark, which is a far cry from me saying I don't think he can get there. Do you really not see the difference there?

      I don't recall anyone seeing this coming.  I mean, two seperate things for me.  I thought BB just might not work in college football because he is old grumpy man and college is about appealing to young kids.   So yeah, that could of gone great or horrible.  Coin flip.  This isn't that convo for me.  what we are witnessing right now play out.....this was never part of the disaster possibility/path discussed lol.  Really weird stuff.  Or maybe I missed the part where UNC hires a 20 year old "girlfriend" that apparently runs the Bill operation and before the season even starts is taking over more than just Bill but influence of the entire UNC operation.  That was her getting that official statement made today.  It was her sabotaging the Hard Knocks UNC show because she somehow wasn't the star.  Seems like elder abuse lol.  Only largely kidding.  You even got Charles Barkley saying he normally doesn't talk about personal lives of his friends but he might have to check in on Bill because this ain't normal stuff lol.  Anyway, it's entertaining.  Everything is a cartoon it seems these days.

      I think its strange how you were claiming this guy was the second coming of Mike Evans and you can't even get behind 1k yards? I guess I have more faith in him than you
