Cowboys surprisingly competitive but always fall short when it matters.

A lot of the Sunday night, Thursday night, and today's game are in HDR with Dolby Atmos if you have an ATSC 3.0 tuner built-in to your TV and an antenna (my antenna is from the 1970's or 1980's.)

I'm watching today's game (Chargers vs Chiefs) in 1080P and HDR with the Dolby Vision Bright setting, although I think it looks 4K to me. Vivid setting looks like crap on my Sony X90J when it comes to the lettering and information bars at the bottom of the game, I usually keep it on Dolby Vision Bright for football night games.

Last year I am pretty sure I got regular 1080P (no HDR, no Dolby Vision settings) on the day games on CBS and FOX, and HDR 4K for the night games on NBC.

Can't complain for free broadcast TV.

Nice, too bad there is no 3.0 option here yet, PBS will be the first and will start sometime this month. i'm 75 miles away (and in the woods) from the nearest transmission point in the Boston DMA which they have NBC and CBS in 3.0. So i will take what the stations can give via their apps, yesterday's game on youtube at least had 5.1 audio which was nice.
