I seriously doubt you miss anything. It's on here and I may not be able to sit through it all if it goes how I predict it will. 

Sure the product may suck, but I would at least like the option to not watch of my own volition. Not sure how we can ever be a big boy NFL market when local affiliates are gonna cling to old allegiances when the local team is bad.

To be fair the local team has been historically bad all things considered and the markets are about advertising ratings and making money

Looks like I'll be sailing the high seas today.

Honestly it strikes me as kind of odd considering they showed all of our games in the triangle last year.  It wasn't like there weren't any Washington fans out here who loved the Rayudskins before this year.

Man I bet David Tepper is fuging raging about this though.  What an insult.

Right, the product was much worse last year (that is saying something) and it never happened. This is the first time I remember this occurring in the triangle since I’ve lived here the last ten years.

Yeah that's insane. I've lived here for almost 20 years and I feel like that's maybe only happened 1 or 2 other times.  I saw a twitter post about it and thought that can't be right and was still planning to turn the game on in the next hour. But nope, the tv guide is showing eagles and commanders in queue at 1 PM. I guess it's just a perfect storm: Panthers are near their nadir relevance playing a minimal stakes game against a non-divisional opponent. And the other offering includes a super high stakes divisional matchup against 2 (likely) playoff teams including the Commanders which are the next closest market to the area. I was going to add Washington was kind of a home market for the area pre-Panthers too, but unless you're in your 70s, I have to think almost everyone now unequivocably considers the Panthers the home team here.

I purchased the NFL NETWORK app and paid 11 bucks each month. The panthers are my market team. They have shown every game this season except 1.

You also get all prime games. No need for Netflix, ESPN, Peacock or Amazon .

 

Redzone is worth it alone

      Well that's part of where the disconnect is then, you think Chark was a "solid NFL player" I couldn't disagree more, he's someone who had one solid NFL season and then was at best a JAG the rest of his career, I wouldn't call that a "solid NFL player" If he was a #3 WR and put up the stats he did outside of that 1 season, then sure, he's a "solid NFL player" but he put up those numbers as the #1 WR in 3 of his 4 seasons that he had meaningful roles and the #2 in a high powered offense the 4th.   That's not good and not what I'd call a "solid NFL player"

      Everything always makes sense in hindsight. Hell, I've seen guys who were touted by everyone as slam dunk "safest player in the draft" type prospects bust massively. Remember Aaron Curry? Robert Gallery? I'm just never going to say that a prospect is definitely a better NFL player than a solid NFL player. Better as a prospect? Sure, you can always make those arguments. But ultimately it comes down to what you do on Sundays and what you did on Saturdays just isn't relevant when you're talking about who's the better NFL player.
