Thank you CBS for not giving us Ravens vs Broncos game CBS. Instead I get to watch zumba informercial and enjoy the pain of waiting for the whole week for nothing!

I feel ya. I'm a little south of you in Bethesda.

When the Ravens and Redskins are both at home, then CBS blacks out the Ravens for half of Maryland. It's ridiculous.

If anyone knows a site streaming the game, then let us know!

Yeah the part of NC I live at has been showing Infomercials on CBS at 1PM the past few weeks, even last week when the Steelers played the Ravens! I figured with that big of a game it would have been shown but instead a infomercial and movie are played.

Now it's bad that your in MD and you get a infomercial at 1PM. I think CBS/FOX should shows games at 1PM/4PM every Sunday during the NFL Season and if Infomercials want to advertise their products, take the money that they are spending to have a 1 hour/half hour show, and spread it throughout commercials during the game.

i had to watch by other means! but dang...how Ravens gonna have the maryland flag and i can't get the game in PG county? Why are the redskins being forced?....if the fanbase is sooo strong why can't they compete in the area?


when two major cities are in close proximity....35miles is a long distance. 35 miles in any other state is still the broadcast area! sometimes i hate the state of maryland....it's set up soooo backwards sometimes.

it's funny! you can get every orioles game throughout maryland,DC, and northern virginia (maybe all of VA)

you can see the nats and orioles anywhere in maryland. obvi there's a reason for it! makes sense to do it for football as well.


they made sure of the fact for baseball...and the orioles stink!

I'm in Gaithersburg too. If you ever need a place to watch the game send me a PM. Have Sunday Ticket when this situation occurs.

The best thing to do in this case is to write and complain to your local CBS broadcasting station.


But really infomercials? That's just pathetic.

NFL Sunday ticket is a great investment, takes the guess work and hoping you get the game you wanna see in your area.

The coverage line ran right through Frederick. So depending on which side of Frederick he lives, he might not get it.

yeah...if i didn't live in maryland! we live in maryland and b-more is the largest city in maryland. DC is DC. dang....all of colorado gets the bronocs.


and with that said. you can't even get maryland terps football games in maryland. I see Clemson & Georgia Tech every week on espn. Then you have bama on CBS every week. and obvi ND has their own channel. WHERE IS RAYCOM, COMCAST, OR MASN FOR TERPS FOOTBALL?

once you step out of maryland and stay somewhere else for while....you realize we are backwards when it comes to sports broadcasting....especially college football. what channel do all the terps games come on? i can never find it and i live in pg county so i know ain't nobody else gettin' the broadcast.

Could be worse, you could have been stuck at work like me :). Luckily my Samsung moment allows me to at least steal the score every so often when management and customers aren't looking.

Even though it's not the same as watching the game, BaltimoreRavens.com is now offering free online simulcasts of WBAL's radio play-by-play of each game.

Keep in mind, we can't condone the posting or sharing of illegal video streams, so we can't allow people to request them. That said, Google and a couple of your friends here might be your best friends on Gameday...just don't let us Mods see any of it. -_-

Interesting subject! My brother lives in NJ in the Philadephia viewing area and he watched both the Ravens game and Red Skins turning channels back and forth as I did here in Maryland.

That is really tuff! Seems to me the sports bars would be making lots of friends by showing the game on NFL all access. I don't think they face any black out restrictions and i would think those games would be available off satellites in Sports Bar (especially in the Deadskins area of RavenNation.

If not for Sports Bars and NFL all acess, I would never see a game (I live in the "other WA - as in state)

GO Ravens!!!

why can't MASN simultcast the games? if they show the losing orioles all up in the DC metro area...why not the Ravens? CBS and FOX have exclusive rights or something?

That's exactly the case. NFL broadcasting rights are very strict. MASN or Comcast sportsnet can pick up the PS games. But they will never sniff regular season games.

I don't care which station broadcasts it, but the Baltimore Ravens games. The MARYLAND - NFL - Football team should have every single game broadcast ALL OVER MARYLAND. And there is no excuse for it not happening.

My daughter and her family live near Silver Springs/Columbia and they couldn't even watch the game and that's with a sports package on the cable.

That's just plain ridiculus!

I agree. Ridiculous. The only option is to move the Redskins to Canada (or deep Virginia). Or if they really care, just don't schedule Ravens and Redskins home games at the same time. Or they can fix coverage rights.

49ers and raiders play at the different times. Why can't the NFL figure it out for the redskins and ravens?

do you think if you live in oakland you can't get all the 49ers games? haha.
