NFL Coverage Map

Someone smarter than me explain this. I get the CBS late games essentially every week in my location. This week, there is no competition with Carolina for coverage at the time slot yet they’re apparently blacking out coverage to local regions only. I feel that being outside the Carolinas I only get to watch them play when we are playing a team within proximity to our zip code. What gives? 
 

Note: I know we suck and aren’t considered a “market team” but damn…

Title of thread includes the words “Coverage Map” only for there to be no actual map posted. This is what keeps me coming back to this site 

You waste more energy replying then you would just looking it up. No one is asking you to stick around, champ.

Why would you wish this crap show on the good citizens of another city? It's bad enough that Atlanta will be forced to watch Bryce run for his life for four quarters.

Based on what I see, I'm going to guess it's showing everywhere. They just didn't create a second map because it's the only late game CBS has. Fox has a second map because there are two late game choices.

You could interpret it as being blacked out, but I don't think so. Given the markets that it does show up in, that'd be some odd choices.

Typically they give a separate map for late game coverage which I found odd. Appreciate the response.

So what's the gripe? In many markets, if not all, you don't always get an early and a late game on both channels. It's been that way forever. Even if there's no competition, etc. Your market may not show a game on one of the channels. 1 or 4. You'll get an infomercial or some other nonsense.

My “gripe” was that I don’t ever luck out and get out of market games featuring my team.

    • This 1000%.  Hey who wants to sign with the guy that couldn't even get his client the guaranteed contract of a 3rd round pick?  Lmao
    • I don't think it's any weird or unique clause, it's the offset language, same thing so many contract disputes are over. It just means that including it, if a player is cut and then signed by another team, the original team would be able to subtract how much they're getting paid by the new team from what they still owe him on their guaranteed money. For example, it's why Russell Wilson signed for the minimum last year with the Steelers as that was included in his Denver contract.  So if he signed with the Steelers for $1 million, he'd get $1 million less from the Broncos, if it was $2 million, he'd get $2 million less, basically he couldn't make any more money than he was already going to make, so you sign for the minimum to not take unnecessary cap room from your new team while giving extra cap room to your old one. The problem with trying to include it in rookie deals is that a team trying to include it, it says they think they don't really believe the player will make it 4 years with the team before they cut them.  And this usually comes up with one or two rookies in most seasons, the difference is it's usually handled much more quietly and not as public and ugly as this one. The other difference is that it's happening with the Bengals, which I believe I saw are one of the few (or only?) team that doesn't have protections for rookies in rookie and mini camps to be able to participate even if they haven't signed their contract yet.  The other teams have injury protections that allow them to still play, but the Bengals do not, which is also why this one is so public and ugly, as most the time this happens, the rookie is still participating in the rookie and subsequent mini camps, giving them more time to get the contract done before training camp when they'd then hold out.
