Where will the Cardinals at Dolphins game be broadcast? We look at the map.
The Miami Dolphins have stumbled their way to a 2-4 record for the 2024 NFL regular season, falling from a pre-season Super Bowl contender to a team that needs a drastic turnaround to stay in the playoff conversation. This week, the Dolphins return home to Hard Rock Stadium to host the 3-4 Arizona Cardinals in a game that will not be a must-watch for anyone outside the immediate fanbase for either club.
The television broadcast plan reflects the lack of national interest. A FOX broadcast in the 1 p.m. Eastern kickoff slot, the game probably does not even count as a regional draw. The game is relegated behind the Green Bay Packers at Jacksonville Jaguars, the Atlanta Falcons at Tampa Bay Buccaneers, and the Tennessee Titans at Detroit Lions games.
In Florida, the game will be see in Miami and West Palm Beach. In Arizona, the game will be broadcast everywhere except the state's northeast corner. There will be some bleed-over along the southern border of California. That makes up the entire broadcast area for the game.
This feels like an NFL Sunday Ticket or sports bar game for Dolphins fans.
Some changes to the broadcast plan could still happen, potentially adding more markets to see this game, but for now, it is a local broadcast only.
