CBS stops showing Cowboys-Vikings game on national broadcast due to lopsided score

CBS seemingly had one of the best games of the week with the Dallas Cowboys facing the Minnesota Vikings in Sunday’s late window for Week 11. As it turned out, the game was so lopsided that the network had to pull a move that is utterly embarrassing for one of the teams involved.

With the Vikings trailing the Cowboys 37-3 in the third quarter, CBS actually made the decision to switch games and relegate Dallas-Minnesota to the local markets only. Nationally, the network picked up its broadcast of the Cincinnati Bengals and Pittsburgh Steelers, which had previously been limited regionally.
