Raiders and Rams Are Blacked Out

Both the Raiders and Rams fell far short of sellouts Thursday at 1 p.m., the deadline for lifting the local TV blackouts of their home games Sunday against the Denver Broncos and the Green Bay Packers, respectively.

The Raiders fell about 17,000 tickets shy, the Rams 9,838, so neither game will be shown in the Los Angeles area. The 10 a.m. game on Channel 4 will be the Patriots vs. the Jets, and the 1 p.m. game on Channel 2 will be the Eagles vs. the Cowboys.
