Fox Sports cuts away from 49ers-Buccanee

You better know when to hold 'em, know when to fold 'em...Fox thought it had a winner on its hands for "America's Game of the Week" between the 49ers vs. Buccaneers. It was a matchup Dion Lewis Jersey dripping with intrigue from Tom Brady's return to his hometown to Brock Purdy's first start, it seemed a game destined to capture the nation's interest.That didn't quite happen, though. Instead, Purdy, Christian McCaffrey and company tore Tampa's secondary to shreds. The Niners dropped 35 unanswered points Steve McNair Jersey to start the game, dominating from the opening salvo.And with another more entertaining albeit le s noteworthy game being broadcast by one of Fox's crews, the network opted to pull the plug on the Brady experiment. Fox decided to cut away from 49ers-Buccaneers and No. 1 Warren Moon Jersey crew Kevin Burkhardt and Greg Olsen in favor of Seahawks vs. Panthers.MORE:Here's the switch as it happened on the network. The move came with a little more than six minutes left in the third quarter:FOX has cut away from Bucs-49ers and Panthers-Seahawks is now on for most of the country.49ers are up 35-0 with over 6 minutes left in the Ben Jones Jersey 3rd quarter. Ari Meirov (@MySportsUpdate) It wasn't an unprecedented phenomenon. CBS did as much a few weeks earlier, spurning the alluring matchup of Cowboys vs. Vikings once Dallas built an una sailable lead. Instead, the network chose to broadcast Bengals vs. Steelers, a seemingly le s appealing NFL Tennessee Titans Jersey game that was far more entertaining in reality.Neverthele s, the cut away added insult to injury on a dour return to The Golden City for Brady and company.
