jethro_tull Posted December 22, 2023 Share Posted December 22, 2023 (edited) First ever for a televised game- no commercials in the 4th quarter! I would gladly subscribe to Peacock if they kept that up. "If you stick around for the fourth quarter of Saturday night’s Peacock-exclusive game between the Bills and the Chargers, you won’t see Jake from State Farm. Unless he’s at the game. NBC announced on Thursday that, for the first time ever, the fourth quarter of an NFL game will be broadcast without commercial interruption. “We are proud to work with our partners at the NFL to present this first-of-its kind experience,” NBC Sports president Rick Cordella said. “NBC Sports’ best-in-class NFL production, Peacock’s fan-friendly viewer experience, and this innovative advertising model will allow NFL fans an exciting new way to watch the game’s conclusion.” Unless the Chargers actually, you know, try this time, there’s a good chance that a running clock would be a more ideal innovation. That said, the experiment will give folks a reason to stick around, even if the Bills are comfortably ahead and the Chargers have comfortably thrown in the towel. Unless you’re in L.A. or Buffalo, the only way to see the Bills-Charger game will be through Peacock. It has a deep and robust library of films, series, and live shows — including PFT Live, Monday through Friday at 7:00 a.m. ET. On Saturday, game coverage begins at 3:00 p.m. ET on NBC and Peacock. First Bengals-Steelers will be televised by NBC and Peacock, before the 8:00 p.m. ET Bills-Chargers game, only on Peacock."

mikemac2001 Posted December 22, 2023 Share Posted December 22, 2023 Will they show replays so we can actually see the bad calls or will they hide them still? 1 4 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bills!Win! Posted December 22, 2023 Share Posted December 22, 2023 Why can’t they just make us watch an hour of commercials first then the game uninterrupted? 3 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warcodered Posted December 22, 2023 Share Posted December 22, 2023 Is the 12 extra minutes of game related content how they're compensating for the loss of rest time the players would have from the commercial breaks? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frostbitmic Posted December 22, 2023 Share Posted December 22, 2023 Just one extra commercial per break, we can do it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GunnerBill Posted December 22, 2023 Share Posted December 22, 2023 Does that mean I'll get to bed at a reasonable time? Memo to the NFL: please, please, please punish the Bills for their disappointing losses this year with no more than 2 prime time games in 2024. It is bad for my sleep pattern, bad for my work performance and bad for my annual leave allowance to keep making us play 6 or 7 prime time games at stupid o'clock in the morning UK time. If you don't heed my request we will send you Boris Johnson back and he can ***** up your country too. 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
