Guessing that most here don't live in the tri-state area and even if you do there's always the possibility of your game source being in a contract battle with channel 11.

So, how many games get aired nationally? I'm going to say at least 6, assuming the opener against the Jets with AAAAron verses Fields will draw viewers.
Could be as many as 13, with only the Stains, da Bears and Colts drawing little national interest.

Is there a number of games the NFL limits to national exposure?

Just posting this while trying to decide whether to shell out $$$$ for the ticket or not.
 
4 for sure, week 7 vs Cin (Prime video), week 8 vs GB (NBC SNF), week 10 vs LAC (NBC SNF), week 15 vs Mia (ESPN MFN)

Then you have Week 4 vs Minn in Ireland, on NFL Network at 9:30am. You have week 13 vs Buff that could be a "game of the week" (4:25pm CBS), and week 16 vs Det (4:25pm CBS).

Week 18 is vs Balt, so it depends on the state of the division and each teams record going into, right now that is slated as a TBD. If it's a tight race for the North, you can bet that will be nationally televised.
 
I want to watch at home. My favorite pizza shop closed down. Probably have to go to Hooters to see most games. The food isn't very good.
