The Kansas City Chiefs and Cleveland Browns’ divisional-round playoff game kicked off without a hitch, but NFL fans trying to tune into the game on CBS were in a world of trouble.

Fans unloaded on CBS and cable carriers as there appeared to be an outage as the game started.

It appeared people who were attempting to watch the game in the New York, New Jersey and Connecticut area were the most affected, according to Down Detector.

"WCBS experienced technical difficulties that affected some parts of the New York market during the first few minutes of the Cleveland-Kansas City game," a WCBS spokesman told Fox News.

After the Chiefs scored the first touchdown of the game, it appeared the service started to come back on for most carriers.
