I think a 25 mile radius. I'm currently in the Raleigh area. I didn't get the Dolphins/Panthers NFL network game from a couple years ago.

I had to look for terrible online streams that were 15 minutes behind.

I got in Columbia, SC. Maybe Raleigh opted not to partake but from my understanding your local stations should of had the ability to. I guess they have the right to air something else but most will opt in as Thur night lineups suck for CBS and Fox.

Only people in the Charlotte area will be able to watch the game on local network if the game is on NFL Network
This was true for the Greenville/Spartanburg area for the Panthers/Dolphins game in 2010.....we get all Panthers games on Sundays, but we aren't in the Charlotte Broadcast area, so no simulcast of the NFL Network Panthers game on our local CBS affiliate (the one all of the pre-season games are broadcast on).

My wife works at TWC as an accountant, so I get every channel on TWC for free, so I am kind of stuck with it. When she went to work there, I cancelled DirecTV, even though I preferred it,lol. She says that TWC is in negotiations with NFL, so I hope they eventually give in, but they make money out the ass and want to charge everyone for it. Greedy bastards.

If you don't have NFLN, the team's local market will carry the game.

Why would anyone get TWC in the first place? My same $54 a month package with Dish would cost over $120 with TWC (counting HD DVR boxes, etc)

lol yeah the last Thursday game the Panthers had against the Cowboys was on local TV. not in Winston Salem.

Goodell said the number of Thursday night games will grow from eight to 13 and will start in the second week of the regular season. Part of that NFL Network package is making sure every NFL team gets a night game. With the regular season starting on a Thursday night on NBC and NBC getting a Thanksgiving Day game, Thursday nights are now part of the NFL fans' schedule to go with Sunday day and night, Monday night and a Saturday or two late in the season.

Nice. But I want some MNF!

      2026 World Cup Thread

      By Joe Bear · Posted

      Hello, soccer fans [crickets, tumbleweed flies by]. The World Cup kicks off in less than 2 weeks and, well, 🇺🇸USA USA USA🇺🇸 and all. We beat Senegal 3-2 yesterday in a tune-up friendly at BoA, with Christian Pulisic finally entering the scoring column.  How will we do in the World Cup once our tournament kicks off on the 12th? Well, there are 48 teams (assuming Iran is there) and it feels like one of two thing happens: we get grouped for the first time since '98, or we make it to the Round of 16 for the third time in the last four World Cups. I tried out the lottery for an Atlanta game and struck out, so yesterday was as World Cup as I'll get for in-person ($285/ticket for like Norway vs $39/ticket for USMNT right beforehand was a layup).  The U.S. has a travel-heavy schedule in group play, playing in LA, Seattle and LA. Real road warrior mentality being built. Glad the east coast gets worse kickoff times for a NA World Cup than a Qatar World Cup.

      LWOS on the FO's error--my word--on X...traits, timelines, Brazzell, & indications of improvement.

      Well, that's the thing. Drafting players only for their physical measurables as you are suggesting only really happened during 2024, and X unfortunately has become the poster child for that. To be clear, it's not necessarily about drafting RAS over skill, but RAS over NFL-readiness and/or a solid body of work. Lots of players show skill in college, but those skills don't necessarily translate to the NFL for a multitude of reasons. But, getting back to the main point, to be clear, I believe that our FO is still enamored with physical gifts (who wouldn't be?), but now they're letting Dr. Eric Eager's proprietary system--his "secret sauce" prioritize the players that the Panthers draft, and it seems like it weighs not only a solid body of work, relative to a college career of course, but consistent gradual improvement as evidenced by production pretty highly.

      Its a good article about how pathetically bad our past drafts ('23 and '24) have been. Building the team in '23 since we weren't ready yet and taking your qb in '24 made so much more sense in hindsight. Ladd McConkey over XL is pretty much a given but not sure it does as much to change Bryce's trajectory as the author suggests.  As bad as '23 and '24 drafts were, the '25 and '26 really give me hope.
