You and the Paramount+ Paradox: Why Can't You Watch the Kansas City Chiefs Get Picked Off (...Hopefully Not)?
Ah, the age-old question that plagues Chiefs fans with a Paramount+ subscription: where's the game?

| Why Can't I Watch The Kansas City Chiefs Game On Paramount+ |
It's All About Location, Location, Location (and Local CBS)
Turns out, Paramount+ plays by the NFL's blackout rules. That means you can only stream the local CBS broadcast of a game in your area. So, if the Chiefs aren't playing on your local CBS channel, it won't be available on Paramount+ either. It's like a cosmic game of "in my market" musical chairs, and sometimes you just end up standing there with a bag of lukewarm nachos.
Subheading: A glimmer of hope! If you're REALLY desperate (and have a decent antenna), you could try picking up the CBS signal directly. Just remember, some things are better left fuzzy and analog, like, well, maybe not the Chiefs' secondary this season...

Other Reasons Your Chiefs Stream Might Be MIA
- The Preseason Paradox: Is it July? Must be the preseason! Paramount+ only streams regular season and playoff games broadcast on your local CBS station. So, those exhibition throws from Mahomes will have to find another audience (unless you have a Chiefs preseason package, but that's a whole other can of worms).
- Tech Troubles: Sometimes, it's not the blackout gods, it's just gremlins in the machine. Check your internet connection, restart the Paramount+ app, offer a small sacrifice to the football gods (optional, but hey, it can't hurt).
Important Note: If none of the above applies, and you're still staring down a Paramount+ void instead of a Mahomes masterpiece, contact Paramount+ support. They might have a more specific answer for your situation.
How-To FAQs for the Frustrated Chiefs Fan:
- How to find out if the Chiefs game is on my local CBS channel? Check your local CBS station's website or listings guide.
- How to watch Chiefs preseason games? You might be out of luck with Paramount+, but some NFL teams offer preseason packages you can purchase directly.
- How to improve my chances of getting a good signal with an antenna? Try different antenna placements and consult a signal strength checker online.
- How to properly appease the football gods? This one's a mystery, but offerings of jerseys, delicious snacks, and unwavering faith in Mahomes are a good start.
