So I've sat down to watch the NFL opener from last night however the only option I've got is from Main Event UHD which is only 1hr19 long and starts with the end of the Keys v Sabalenka tennis match but as that went long there is zero NFL in it.
I can't find the entire game from Sky Sports NFL is this me being an idiot or is this just Sky not being on the ball and getting the recording up in a timely manner.

Hi @tweetSP0RT not all Sport shown on Sky Sports ME UHD will be the fully scheduled event always check other showings for the exact length of programme
For example I know it's not NFL but just pointing out how you can get caught out
Sky Sports main event UHD
Live Eng v S Lanka Women 1st ODI
As you can see it's on tomorrow at 10:30am 1h 30
Now if you select other showings
It's actually scheduled for 8hrs 30mins SkySp Cricket.
The reason it's only on Sky Sports ME UHD for 1h 30m is due to the Live EFL
Once the scheduled EFL match has finished
Live Eng v S Lanka Women 1st ODI will resume but only for three hours as Live US Open Tennis is scheduled for Sky Sports ME UHD
Always check the tv guide if the UHD option is shown on another channel it's been awhile since having Sky Stream so not sure of the other UHD channel numbers other than Sky Sports ME UHD 401
Apologies I have Sky Q now so I can set a record instead of adding sporting event to playlist

Yes this is what happened last night. The entire NFL match was on the Sky Sports NFL channel, but Main Event only had the last hour of it when the tennis had finished – this was shown in the EPG beforehand to planned, not the tennis overrunning.

I understood that the tennis had priority on main event so I actually double checked before i went to bed that the game on Sky Sports NFL was showing as being added to my playlist which it was. But all I've got is that brief bit of UHD from main event showing.

This is why I never have UHD during the NFL season. It mucks up watching the games back that aren't wholly broadcast in UHD. It'd be good if they just made the HD beginning of the game available but it doesn't. I flagged this with Sky recently but heard nothing back.
