Indeed, we fans living in central
Miss. apparently weren’t in the coverage zone this past weekend for the first time in forever? Wound up watching the game on Buffstream.

Were the coverage maps posted last week? I didn’t check because I naturally assumed we’d always be in the same zone as south La.

I live in Hattiesburg but am in UMC for a few days. Was aggravated when I turned on Fox and found Dallas

Thankfully y I had my ipad and was
Able to watch the Saints on it.

Why the change?
 
The two years I lived in Gluckstadt (2011-12) the Saints were always on locally, and the FM station that carried the Saints network ran the full pregame+postgame radio show, like 9 hours of programming.
 
Never heard of Fox 40 not carrying the Saints. Crazy.

The 506 had us with the Saints until Friday. iI always look to see who's on the call. When I turned it on at noon Sunday and it was lar@dal, I checked it again.

here was the email reply,
Thank you for your email and expressing your thoughts. This market is HUGE for both Dallas Cowboys and the New Orleans Saints fans. It’s always a tough decision when deciding between these two teams because the feedback will occur regardless. We decided to air the Dallas Cowboys game because it was in the best interest of our viewers. We respect your thoughts and appreciate you as a viewer, and we hope you will continue to watch FOX40!
which is total crap.
 
Not only that but the QV for Indianapolis is from Brandon which is basically right beside Jxn. Asinine decision. Dak doesn't have the kind of following even among MSU fans to show him over Minshew and the Saints. I hope they got blown up today
I mention the battle of Brandon with Minshew II vs Demario in my email to her.
 
This has happened around Christmas time the past couple of years as well.. just looked, yeah weak 17 in 2021 versus the Panthers I had to listen to the game because they were airing the Cowboys game instead.

Yeah, the Saints were given the tiniest coverage I have ever seen. What does this map represent, like 1 street in Metairie?

Those were the prime-Brees and prime-Payton years (despite the BS fiasco that kept him sidelined in ‘12).

I’ll predict that if this team can somehow keep momentum going forward, we won’t be cut out of the coverage zone again.

That means they pro-actively switched us out for the Cowboys.

Not only has Jackson been a Saints market for 50 years, Damario Davis and Gardner Minshew are both from the area. A lot of real fans would be been tuned in.

I'd expect that to change in a couple of weeks after a couple of more wins. That is, of course, if the team gets on a roll. The Saints HAVE TOO provide a good product.
