What channel is the game on??

For the 2nd week in a row, Thursday nite football has been shown on the nfl network and not my local fox affiliate.

Didn’t fox spend a zillion dollars to broadcast the games on the fox network??

Must only be in the local markets. Here in Texas it's on NFL network.

Yes, if you're in the NY/NJ/CT area the game won't be shown on the NFL network. Only nbc

That’s interesting how a game on fox is being broadcasted on nbc (local market I guess??)

why did fox spend all this $$$ for the broadcast of the game isn’t going to be shown on fox??

The package includes 11 weeks of Thursday night games: Week 4 through Week 15, with the exception of Thanksgiving night. (Last season's CBS-NBC arrangement included 10 games.) The Thursday games will be simulcast on the league-owned NFL Network and the Spanish-language Fox Deportes channel. Fox also gained rights to stream its NFL games to mobile phone users, although the NFL plans to negotiate a separate big-ticket deal with a streaming service such as Amazon or YouTube in the coming weeks.
