7:30 PM on Friday Night on ABC...That is Channel 22, unless your cable has it on a different channel number. ....Being a Home Game, I expected a late showing around midnight. They must have really got away from local blackouts. .....From Middletown to Springfield people get Channel 22, so that is a huge area of Bengal Nation.

Well, I was born and raised in Dayton, but I now live in Columbia South Carolina.. C'mon man! What channel here carries the game? Don't tell me none.. I already know that...

Hey gramps, what local team do you get on Sundays? Assuming the Panthers?

The good news is, game #3, when they usually play starters for the half, is on prime time. Another trick you can do, if you live out of area like I do, is this:
Sign on today for NFL Game Pass. You get a 7 day free trial period. Watch the game tomorrow night and then cancel the trial period AFTER the game.
That way you can see 2 of the 4 games.
I will be fortunate to see tomorrow's game on the local FOX channel since they carry the Bucs and Dolphins away games here.
The day before the Chiefs game I will sign up for Game Pass and watch that game, and then game #3 on prime time.
The only game I will miss is the last one against the Colts.
However I would like to see that game because game #4 is where players are scrambling for the 53 roster.

Good. I don't have to hear about how some worthless pre-season game is playing over Big Brother all night. It's the greatest tv show of all time.
Not really that show sucks.

Not a fan of that silly show either.
But looking forward to getting in stadium and seeing new additions.
Nervous as hell about seeing O-line though. Hope they surprise me.

I have mixed feeling about pre-season.
On one hand I'm ecstatic about seeing the Bengals but on the other let's just get through to the season without any major dings.
Our backups should be pretty fun to watch this year.

I have said on other posts.....GET RID OF THE HUE JACKSON SPLIT OFFENSIVE LINE FORMATION GARBAGE....AND LET THESE GUYS WORK ON THINGS LIKE RUN BLOCKING AND PASS BLOCKING.....THEY HAVE NO BUSINESS LINING UP OUT WITH WR ANYWAY, NO OTHER TEAMS DO THIS NEW BENGALS GARBAGE......TAKE OUT THE GARBAGE.....GO BACK TO BASIC PRACTICE ON RUN AND PASS BLOCKING......ALL OUR OFFENSIVE LINEMEN WEIGH 300 POUNDS EACH AND IT IS STILL A BIG OFFENSIVE LINE. LET THEM FIRE OFF AND PUT A BODY ON PEOPLE.
I THINK OUR OFFENSIVE LINE WILL BE OK...IF....THEY THROW OUT THE HUE JACKSON SPLIT O LINE GARBAGE.....AND GO BACK TO THE BASICS OF RUN AND PASS BLOCKING.
IF THEY WANT TO DO SOMETHING TRICKY......GO BACK TO SOME HURRY UP NO HUDDLE SOMETIMES, because THAT catches defenses with WRONG player sets on the field, and THAT will help O Line more. Watching the tackle go out by WR, then Dalton audibles and tackle comes back in by guard, all that garbage is too slow. Just LINE UP and RUN THE DARN PLAYS. Let Dalton read the defenses, but NOT for this moving tackle nonsense, but to try to read who will be the open receiver.
The NEW TACKLES have ENOUGH TO DO without practicing the Hue Jackson split O Line plays, Hue who is in Cleveland. Always Remember, WE DON'T LIVE IN CLEVELAND.

Quiet ! People are trying to sleep, lol just joking.
No Hue Jackson fan here and agree 100%.
Have said since day one Hue is too gimmicky.
Lucky Dalton is still alive after some of his play calling .
Hue Jackson is the very last person I want as Bengals HC if it ever becomes available just for the record.
Although that may be just what Cleveland needs to get out of the muck.
Like him as a position coach though.

NFL NETWORK at 1 AM eastern standard time late Friday Night or early Saturday Morning. ....They will air it again Tuesday at 1 PM in the afternoon....
So in South Carolina you can watch this and about every NFL preseason game on NFL NETWORK, or wherever any of you may live in USA.
There are also some computer streaming sites, such as WatchSports, if you don't have NFL Network. They can sometimes mess up your computer, but if you quickly unplug computer and if lap top also take the battery out and back in, this reboot should get computer back on track. I have streamed some good games on computer, as good as watching on TV in some cases.
AGAIN....in and around Dayton Ohio area it is 7:30 PM Friday Night on ABC Channel 22

To be honest there doesn't really seem to be a favorite NFL team here. This area is big on college teams, USC (South Carolina) and Clemson. I see more Squeeler stuff on cars and trucks than any other pro team which always makes me want to engage in vandalism, but I don't.

Gramps, Game Pass is not a network gimmick or black market. It's perfectly legit hosted by NFL.com. I had it last year but cancelled after the season.
The main reason I got it was to watch condensed replay of games from 2009 to present, AND to listen to Hoard and Lap syncing with the TV so I didn't have to listen to TV broadcasters.
The only issue I had was that, more times than not, the radio broadcast was ahead of the TV broadcast. When that happens you can't sync. You can ONLY sync if the TV broadcast is ahead of the radio by stopping live play on the TV to sync to radio. (Which is the only reason I am not renewing this year)
They don't take any payment from your card until your 7 day trial period is over. As long as you cancel before that, no money is exchanged and they tell you exactly how to cancel, which isn't brain surgery anyhow!

So on Sundays, they air different teams randomly on the networks instead of the closest team to your city?

This reminds me another reason why I want Bengals Preseason to start, since the highlight of the Reds entire season was Pete Rose getting an erection in front of ball park.
