Okay, so, about this NFL coverage map thing. I’ve been trying to figure out how to watch all the games, especially the ones that aren’t shown in my area. It’s a real pain when you can’t catch your favorite team, right?
First, I spent some time looking up what this whole “coverage map” thing even is. Apparently, it’s a map that shows which NFL games are being aired in different parts of the US. The networks decide this based on some complicated stuff about media markets and team territories. It is not easy to understand.
Then, I went down this rabbit hole of trying to find these maps. I found a few sites that post them each week. You basically just look at the map, find your area, and it tells you which games are on which channel. Simple enough, I thought.
But here’s where it got tricky. Sometimes, the game I wanted to watch was “blacked out” in my area. That means it’s not being shown on any of the local channels. I learned that this usually happens because of some agreements between the NFL and the TV networks. I did not expect this to happen. But I want to watch the game anyway!
So, I started looking for workarounds. One option I found was to get something called “NFL Sunday Ticket” from YouTube TV. But man, that thing is expensive! It lets you watch all the out-of-market games, but it’ll cost you a pretty penny.
Another thing I looked into was using a 加速器. The idea is that you can make it look like you’re in a different location, where the game you want to watch isn’t blacked out. It’s way cheaper than the Sunday Ticket, but it felt a little bit like a gray area, you know? I am not sure if it is right or wrong.
- What I did:
- Searched what is “NFL coverage map”.
- Found out which games will be broadcasted in different regions.
- Tried to find a way to watch the “blacked out” game.
- Looked into NFL Sunday Ticket.
- Considered using 加速器 to change my location.
I haven’t decided yet what I’m going to do. The Sunday Ticket is a lot of money, and the 加速器 thing feels a little weird. I might just end up going to a sports bar or something when my team isn’t on TV. Or I might just have to follow the game online instead of watching it live. We will see. It’s all a bit of a hassle, but hey, that’s the price you pay for being a football fan, I guess.
My conclusion
Figuring out the NFL coverage map can be a real headache, but it’s doable. You just gotta dig around a bit and maybe get creative with how you watch the games. And if all else fails, there’s always the sports bar!
