NFL Saints @ Packers game I recorded was deleted

Direct tv

The NFL channel 212 didn’t broadcast the live game @ 6pm mountain, but the guide showed the game was available @ 11 on the same channel so I set it to record. I know about blackouts so I double checked to make sure it wasn’t on my local or regional channels before recording it on 212.

So I go to watch it next morning and it’s not there! My recorded history shows it was “deleted” due to blackout restrictions in my area. This makes no sense b/c this was not a live game at the time it was recording and wasn’t on any other channel.

Reading thru other related posts where DIRECTV blacked out games it shouldn’t of ..this seems like a issue and I can’t be the only one with this problem.
