HD NFL viewers/fans

I'm very salty right now cause the Ravens/Chargers game is not in widescreen or HD. Local CBS station puts out a 1080i signal through the cable box, but the game looks like ass. Anyone else with broadcast/cable able to pull this game down in HD widescreen? Wondering if it's my local CBS station or cable company who's to blame here before I fire off a letter to the network.

I'm watching the Colt/Jets game in widescreen HD on CBS. Maybe it's just your local CBS affiliate. Sux though, I hate when that happens.

Thanks, Clint. I'm starting to think CBS is conserving bandwith or something and only putting select games in HD. I hope they don't whore me on the Skins-Jags game at 4:15!

Nope, not getting the Ravens in HD either. However, I am getting almost every other game.

That means it's the network being stingy with their HD broadcasts.

That was a sweet finish. So was the Colts game. I was pissed that it was the only game in my DirecTV NFL package that wasn't in HD. But every week there are a few that are not offered in HD, while most are.
