IT IS.

It's the Prime Time Sunday Afternoon game. How is this hard for you guys to understand? There is prime time Sunday morning, Sunday afternoon, SNF, MNF. But they are NOT ALL SNF games. OK. Probably 95% of the country gets this game sitting on their couch unless your team or region conflicts somehow. That's good enough.

No, this is Fox's game of the week. Prime time is SNF.

Fox has prime time games as does CBS, ABC, NBC, Prime Network. They all do. Get it? Yes you have such a thing as Prime Time Sunday Morning and Sunday afternoon games. The game most of the nation gets like this one. Of course Fox wants to protect this game. It's a big hit for ratings. I don't blame them.

A prime time game is when there is no other competing game on at that time during prime viewing hours ..get it?

Fox and CBS have Prime Time Games. Sometimes called "game of the week" where 95% of the country will get it. It's not just SNF. LOL. Of course they want to network protect that game and can you blame them? Get it?

Prime time by definition is between 8 and 11 PM.

prime time

/ˈprīm ˌtīm/

noun

the regularly occurring time at which a television or radio audience is expected to be greatest, typically the hours between 8 and 11 p.m.
"the Olympics dominated 59% of prime time"

It's not a prime time game. Go look it up and show me where they classify these games as prime time. Do you ever wonder why when they do the schedule release and count how many prime time games teams get that none of these ones you are talking about are classified as such ?

It is for Fox. Their game of the week and the grand majority of the country as a whole.

I'm glad you called out the majority, of country hence making it not the prime time game. You get it now

Why would Fox give up the biggest Prime Time game for the whole country? That makes no sense at all. They can't help it if Ohio and Los Angeles want to be stupid. Everyone else wants to watch this.

Too bad not everyone will be able to watch it..unlike a prime time game where everyone can watch and there is no viewing competition with other teams durimg the prime time tv viewing hours

Just turn on Fox. Easy.

Random but anyone know good niners bars in LA?
trapped there this weekend for the game and Rams will be on locally then.

I know SF saloon sadly closed

I've had this conversation with friends alike this week.

Ignoring the usual phrase of "primetime" this is Fox's Marquis game of the week. They have the doubleheader slot this week and protected this matchup. As CBS did last week, and protected Buffalo/Philly.

A matchup like Philly/SF will always be protected by FOX. And I can't blame them. Plus I read something recently that the NFL feels the 1:25PM doubleheader slot has become more coveted than SNF on nbc (for ratings).

Guys. Lmao this isn't technically a prime time game, but we all know it should be. I'm sure the league really wanted it to be and so does fox but because of some contractual situations - it's not technically a prime time game (typically the only game on and nationally broadcaster).

Fox has done everything in their power to make it as close to a "prime time" game as possible, because they know how big of a game it is. Essentially, this is as close to a prime time game as there can be, without it actually being prime time.

the league really f**ked up with the prime time games this year, an overwhelming majority of them have been complete s**t. Crappy boring losing teams on both sides of the field. Lol probably the worst prime time slate (as a whole this year) as I've ever seen in my life.

outside of 49er games, I've barely watched any of them and def didn't if I had anything else to do. Lol
