NFL NETWORK GAMES BLACKED OUT??

[JMM]

What the heck is going on? They just took the 1pm game off and put on other programming. I'm in Elmira on Spectrum cable. Does this mean they are going to blackout the Bills game tonight? Why is ANY game blacked out?? Can somebody help me before I have to try to call these idiots?

Strange, I have it on directv

[JMM]

I seem to remember they did this too with preseason games too, but these are regular season games, this has to be a mistake by Spectrum right??

Is anybody else experiencing this in the Elmira Corning area on Spectrum cable?

[muppy]

my direcTV before the start said the "game not available.  but now it has been corrected and the game is live. Hopefully your provider fixes it ASAP or I'd call

Bills game is on ch.7 tonight idk why they'd not show the early games. That makes no sense and I'm currently watching it in Cheektowaga so it's not a blackout issue due to proximity

I have been complaining about this for years. You never actually know for sure you will see the game.

Last minute surprises suck

[JMM]

So I just called Spectrum,  the rep says they have nothing to do with it and gave me the number to call NFL network.  Why do I get the feeling I'm getting the run around and they are going to say it's Spectrum. How ridiculous.

Spectrum in Cincinnati is showing the game on NFL Network.

Weird though, was initially black screen. I had to flip back-n-forth a couple times to other channels then it popped on.

Yeah, Spectrum blows.

NFL Saturday on NFL+?

I live in Wayland NY, and they did same thing to me so I'm watching the game on the NFL networks home page online.

Youtube TV has it on in Rochester. I actually forgot that people still have cable.

[JMM]

So NFL says it's Spectrum of course. And I can get the game on my phone, so that proves it's Spectrum.  But that's not the point. I pay for this channel, why am I not receiving these games?

Watching the game on NFL Network right now in Texas

That would be fine if you paid the NFL Network directly. You pay Spectrum. They owe you a service. They're just trying to get you off the line. 

[JMM]

So I called back Spectrum,  and you ready for this? This time the rep says that they are experiencing an "outage" because so many people are currently adding the NFL network. I said then how is the NFL network still on, and showing A football life reruns. She said yes, that is the outage, they are trying to restore the game, no time for when it will be resolved.  Can you believe this?? So I will either add a streamer like YouTube TV or watch on my laptop tonight. But this is about the last straw with these idiots.

[Yawning Frog]

Maybe there's an NFL rule that the network can only show one game in the market where a game is being played. Or something like that.
