Unless you’re in the local viewing area for Denver or Cleveland…then it should be shown on your local affiliate. And if not, then e-mail Arlen Specter. ---

In NYC, local viewing of NFL Network games is usually on “MyNetworkTV”, a Fox affiliate. ---

I’m not familiar with Charter, but their web site doesn’t list any of the main zip codes for either of those cities as being in their available area. If you’re not in the local viewing area, you can still catch the game online: [Fantasy Football - NFL Fantasy](http://www.nfl.com/live/) ---

My Charter Cable is in Newtown CT. I am beginning to think the game’s on The Dish, Not Charter.
