Pittsburgh Steelers Week 8: TV Listings, Map, Announcers, Times

Mandatory Credit: Cary Edmondson-USA TODAY Sports

The Pittsburgh Steelers face off in the late game against the Oakland Raiders at Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum.  Coverage is slated to begin at 4:05 with a game time start shortly after that.  CBS is only broadcasting a single game today, so Steeler Nation won’t have to worry about watching Mike Wallace drop passes, Tom Brady cry, or the Brownies suck it up while the first snaps take place out in Oakland would there to be any spill over coverage of those games.

Here is today’s broadcast map for Steeler Nation:

Unfortunately, Steeler Nation will have to suffer with Spero Dedes and Rich Gannon at the mics today.  Dedes play by play is inconsistent and I’m sure we will here five different versions of Troy Polamalu’s last name.  Gannon isn’t too bad of an analyst, but this obviously isn’t a featured game for CBS to be breaking out the big guns.

If you’re like me and live outside of the viewing area, you will have to suffer with watching the Dolphins and the Patriots contest.  I plan on switching over to dve.com and listen to Billy Boy and the Gang call the game from there.  I’ll just close my eyes and channel my inner Cope while the Steelers pound away at the Raiders.

Enjoy today’s contest.  Go Steelers!
