Eagles game blacked out on NFL gamepass (1 Viewer)

If its on Sky Sports, it gets blacked out.

A ridiculous idea because some people can only afford one or the other, and neither allow you to watch every game.

That's why I didn't bother with GamePass this season. Another rip-off, brought to you by the NFL!

There's a 1pm Falcons/Panthers game on Fox in Atlanta scheduled. Am I missing something?

Oh you're right. I forgot about the friggin Falcons. No matter, good thing I have DTV and Sunday ticket!!!!

I can assure you that's not the reason.

I think it's the 'national' game - so perhaps that's why it's not on Gamepass (though I'm not even familiar with what gamepass is - I have NFL ST)

This is the correct answer

I believe he's referring to NFL FieldPass, and yes it will be blackout for Eagles fans, but not Saints fans, check out my other post below on getting the stream;

The rules concerning the blackout of alternate delivery systems is not from the NFL. Those come from the FCC here in the U.S. and what government organization they have that controls the communications systems in their particular country.

It's something to do with broadcast rights in the UK only.

I am in Australia and none of the games are blacked out on Gamepass. Thank goodness.
I'm already angry enough that I couldn't watch the Lions game because of technical problems.
