How do blackouts work?

Can someone explain to me how not selling 2,500 tickets leads to a game getting blacked out? I mean I can understand 17,000 unsold tickets but other then that it confuses me how this whole system work. Also I don't get why Fox and CBS can't show two games a piece every week. Why am I stuck watching a Cops marathon half the time?

The San Diego Chargers, with 2,500 tickets left midweek for an attractive matchup with the Baltimore Ravens, were anticipating a blackout and that could happen in Detroit as well. Detroit and San Diego applied for extensions but Jacksonville, with 17,000 tickets remaining, did not and will be blacked out.
