Yes, I was furious. I was hoping to watch the 4th qtr and relax and enjoy the win. Then they moved it to the Bengals and Steelers game.Anyone else mad we didn't get to see the game in its entirety.

I had to go to NFL.com and watch the little dots.
Hope Micah is ok, I saw where he was injured on a play. Had to just read it.

He came back into the game afterwards. Kind of silly he was still playing especially with a short week.I had to go to NFL.com and watch the little dots.

I was pissed, we finally get to see our team steamroll a good team and we don't get to see how it ended- I was having fun. I refused to watch the PIT-CIN game, turned on THE MUNSTERS instead, LOLAnyone else mad we didn't get to see the game in its entirety.

Yes. I was eating dinner withno sound on but when I saw them come back from commercial and were just showing the score, I knew what was about to happen.
The only consolation is that it is basically like employing the mercy rule. The ref stepped in and stopped the fight!

Yeah. I know it made a lot of people mad but it was honestly kind of hilarious. Got blown out so bad they just shut that **** off. I hope we beat the brakes off the Eagles in the same fashion.
I noticed when too in the 3rd Q that they already gave us the 7-3 ranking and put the Vikes at 8-2. I know a comeback was extremely unlikely but they didn’t give them a chance at all

I can't even remember the last time a game was switched because of a blowout. And to give me Pittsburgh. I already had that on my 2 other CBS channels. I was only getting the Cowboy game on the D.C. channel.

Same here. Luckily I have Sunday Ticket so flipped it over there and got to see the rest of the game.

I have Sunday Ticket too, but they didn't lift the blackout for me. I was pissed because it was blacked out because it was on locally, but when they flipped the game to the Bengals they should have lifted the blackout here on Sunday Ticket.
I ended up watching a stream someone posted.

This is 2 weeks in a row not having the opportunity to watch a full game. Last week I had to watch the full overtime period of the Bills-Vikes before they switched. The Boys game finally came on with 3:12 left in first period. Granted I didn’t miss a score but yesterday’s b.s. leaving the game in the middle of the 3rd is NOT acceptable.Anyone else mad we didn't get to see the game in its entirety.
Shouldn’t we have an option?? Put the game on a “sister” channel or something?!?!

Awesome. Congrats!
I'll be watching with a roomful of Giants fans. The remote will be hidden as soon as I get my hands on it.

I had anytime TV but decided to cancel it. New house and all takes up every last dollar.
Just for once I would have liked to sit back on the couch and say, " Sweet!"

I say it every week it's all about marketing and entertainment value.
That game turned into a runaway and they couldn't get it under control no matter how much they tried to manipulate it with the refs even to the point of making our kicker try to kick another 60 yd field goal that he made so they gave up.
Guaranteed some bean counter had announced to the league how many people had turned off the television because it was a runaway so they switched to something else.
Nothing's legitimate anymore it's all about the money.
