So tangent aside, having the games on both channels makes 0 sense right?
Aug 28th 2014

Doesn't CBS have it the first half of the season
Aug 28th 2014

      When I checked the schedule on ESPN they listed CBS/NFL
Aug 28th 2014

           reply 1. still doesnt make sense tho
Aug 28th 2014

           I looked on the NFL's site, and that's how it looks on there
Aug 28th 2014
19
                Every game is on NFLN, first 8 on CBS also.......very strange (link)
Aug 28th 2014

                     Unless they're using CBS games as a way to entice people to

                          The entice angle thing would make sense if that was their mo

                               drug dealer strategy, get em hooked the first half of the season
Aug 29th 2014
25
                                    I'm looking at this from a straight ratings standpoint
Aug 29th 2014

                                         you are right it makes zero sense
Aug 29th 2014
27
                                         id guess CBS is getting subsidized for NFL Network splitting viewers
Aug 29th 2014
28
                                              Wonder if that was the deal no matter what network got it

everybody can't afford 'dem cables
Aug 28th 2014

But they all have CBS.......no one has NFLN and not CBS
Aug 28th 2014

      aren't there some cable providers that dont? Lol...I'm tryin, man
Aug 28th 2014

It is part of a joint programming deal. Inside the NFL...
Aug 29th 2014
23
That makes proper sense tho
Aug 29th 2014
24
      Showtime and CBS are the same company (business case swipe)
Aug 29th 2014
33
           Having the game also on NFLN does NOTHING for CBS
Aug 29th 2014
34
           I guess simulcast is better than nothing?
Aug 31st 2014
36
           do you think cbs wants it this way?
Aug 31st 2014

                That's what I was wondering.
