Fox only gets one game this week due to scheduling rules and contracts.
So if the entire nation has to choose between a multitude of early games, or Jags/Rams... naturally out of market areas are going to look elsewhere.

For instance, in NW Florida, near the Alabama state line... its Saints country. So they'll be showing the Saints game.
Green Bay and Minnesota is a divisional matchup against two good teams (and 2 teams the national media likes more than Rams or Jags)
Other Fox games are shown only in their local areas as well.

Had the game been a CBS game... there'd probably be a few more markets showing Rams/Jags but even still... with a game like Pittsburgh and KC, the in between markets tend to go with what they believe will give them the highest ratings/views.

The thing is, I am in the Jaguars market. Which network shows the Jaguars is irrelevant. Whether it is CBS or Fox I can watch almost every Jaguars game. This happens once a year.

Interest in the Rams and Jaguars should be high enough to be shown in Gainesville because of our win against the Steelers and how well they are playing this season. It likely will be a more entertaining game than the Buccaneers/Cardinals matchup considering how those two teams are playing.
