For the first time ever, CBS will be streaming two regular season NFL games for free, no authentication required.

The first game will be between the Jets and Dolphins October 4th. That game is being played in London and the stream starts at 9:30am eastern.

The second game? You guessed it. The Panthers vs Cowboys Thanksgiving matchup will stream for free on CBS. Pretty damn cool if you ask me.

which is 2:30PM local time. they could have pushed it back an hour or two to make it 4::30GMT/11:30ET/9:30PT.

4:30 GMT would make it 8:30 PDT, so not really much better, and the NFL specifically moved the games earlier in London's day to boost attendance.  The games used to be played late so they would air at usual US times, I think as recently as 2013.

If it were two west coast teams they would probably consider it.  However, it's two east coast teams playing in London.  They probably aren't too worried about the folks west of the Rockies.

my guess is the real reason they moved it is so that it won't conflict with the regular games. Starting it at 9:30ET finishes at Noon:30, which is...wait for it...30min before the regular games are supposed to start. *gasp*

what a coincidence. it's all marketing, so they can showcase the UK games.

      What top 10 prospect do you absolutely NOT want?

      I don't get the Hunter hate. Just imagine his ceiling if he stopped trying to be this 2way freak and focused on one side of the ball

      Is running back on the table for the panthers this draft?

      100%.  You have to play the cards that are dealt.  Not the cards you wish were dealt.

      I'd say its definitely going to be addressed this off-season.  We went into the last draft with a roster of RBs including:  Chubba, Blackshear, and Miles Sanders. We picked Jonathan Brooks in the second and still signed Rashaad Penny afterwards.  Fast forward....One turned into a top 10 back, 1 is injured/out for most if not all the '25 season, 1 retired, 1 will either take a huge paycut or be cut, and the last is a restricted free agent. We brought in Mike Boone as well. Add him to the free agent list also.  We need a physical option.    Which qualifies:  Ashton Jeanty(Boise St): Overall ranked Top 10. Almost 2k yards after contact, 28 tds. Would take our first rounder. My money would be on an NFC East team selecting him. (97.2 PFF run grade) - 121 forced missed tackles.  Omarion Hampton(UNC): Ranked everywhere from 20 - 59 overall. Consensus #2 back after Jeanty. He'll be a second rounder. 1,222 Yards after contact w/ 15 tds.  (90.5 PFF run grade) - 72 forced missed Tackles Kaleb Johnson(Iowa): Ranked from 38 - 69 depending on which media outlet you prefer but generally #3. 2nd/3rd possibly. 1,060 Yards after contact w/ 21 tds.(86.7 PFF run grade)- 66 forced missed tackles Cam Skattebo: Ranked from the 50's - 104. Every mock I do he ends up BPA at some point. 969 Yards after contact w/ 17 tds(92 PFF Run Grade). Probably the best receiving back of the group. 81 forced missed tackles.  If the '24 and '25 draft classes were combined, IMO the rankings would be, in order: Jeanty, Hampton, Brooks, Johnson, Skattebo. I wouldn't take one high but I'd take one for Chubba and Brooks insurance.
