Panthers viewing options Thursday

Obviously, the Panthers are playing the Giants on the NFL network. Will the game be televised in the Triad?

Any place with Sat dish should have it. I have NFL network on DirecTV.

Yeah, I've got TWC, I wonder if we'll get the game on channel 2 as usual?

Nope - they only have the rights to pre-season games -

Local markets do have the right to televise the games that are on the NFL network, but I'm not sure if the Triad would be local enough. I can't remember what we got when I lived in Winston and had the same problems.

I suggest Kickbacks if you're in Greensboro. Best sports bar there IMO

Channel 9 in Charlotte is the only "local" station that will braodcast the game. It irks me that the Triad is local enough to be blacked out but not local enough to be able to show this game on an area station. It doesn't matter that much to me as I have season tickets but is just the principle of things...

I've got 9 up here and never noticed them showing a panthers game.

It is on WSOC-TV per the game day email I received from the Panthers...

It's only on WSOC because it's on NFLN. They do kind of a round robin when Panthers games have been shown on NFLN (which is not very often) since it's not available in many places in the Charlotte market. Last time they were on NFLN WBTV showed the game. Time before that it was WCCB (usual station), and the time before that it was on WJZY. Guess it is 9's turn.

Wierd, guess since have the NFL channel I just never noticed (or I dont watch the Panther's that much since I know AE is never going to get a chance at anything).

I feel like I'm watching our game against The Citadel again. Panthers defense really sucks.
