Chron.com article on game being televised on DirecTV for Sunday Ticket subscribers.

DirecTV spokesman Robert Mercer said NFL Sunday Ticket customers around the nation will be able to see the Ravens-Texans game live Monday night.

ESPN has exclusive rights to the Monday night window but agreed with the decision to make the Texans available on Sunday Ticket.

"We had conversations with the NFL today and determined this was the appropriate decision in order to best serve football fans," said ESPN spokesman Bill Hoffheimer. "Also, we will update our national viewers during the regularly-scheduled MNF game between the Eagles and Cowboys with in-game highlights of the Ravens-Texans."
From McClain's blog:

Quote:

The Ravens are scheduled to come to Houston on Sunday. They could wait as late as Monday. NFL rules say visiting teams are supposed to be in a city 24 hours before the game, but in emergency situations like this, that rule is relaxed.
Depending on what happens with Ike, of course, there's always a chance the game could be postponed again. The NFL always has a plan, but right now, it hasn't been disclosed to us. ...

The last thing the Texans and Ravens want to do is to move the game. Remember last season when there was so much speculation about where the Texans and Chargers were going to play because of the fires that burned out of control in the San Diego area? They ended up playing it when and where they were supposed to. The Texans might as well have forfeited because they played such a horrible game against the Chargers.
