Do you get NYC local channels?

If you do, you’ll get the game on regular TV.

he is right

the jets pats game last year was on channel 9 i think my first taste of the NFL network at the time

Yep.

The NFL can’t blackout local fans who don’t receive a certain channel.

It’s the same reason the Jets game on Monday Night also aired on Channel 9. The local audience MUST get the game on broadcast TV.

with a caveat

the game must be sold out first. clearly not a problem with the new york teams, but it sure makes for terrible sundays for lions and jags fans. the league really needs to adjust that rule.

Or on the road...

…which is the case on Thanksgiving.
