corta765 Posted March 27 Share Posted March 27 This is not the opening game which will be KC v someone. This is the 2nd game the next night which the NFL is trying to market by the peacock crap again. Lucky for me I could care less and will be at a concert outdoors ignoring their BS again 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The league is deciding if it will be the Packers or Browns as the opponent. The Chiefs play Thursday Sept 5th.      Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Punching Bag Posted March 27 Share Posted March 27 New England should have been one of teams there since New England Patriots Awarded Brazil as a Global Markets Program Territory.

Donuts and Doritos Posted March 27 Share Posted March 27 There's as much chance of me watching that on Peacock as there is of me watching it live in Brazil. 2 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"TNF", "SNF", and "MNF" refer the to the primetime broadcast packages awarded to the NFL's partners no matter what day the games are actually shown on.

billsfan89 Posted March 27 Share Posted March 27 The NFL has games on cable TV which you have to pay for and when games were exclusively on NFLN that was often a channel with an extra charge, I don't see the issue with them putting games on a streaming service that costs money. Yes I am very exhausted of having so many different streaming services but in the end it is a business not a charity. 2 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The people caught up on 'viewers' are focused on something other than the business value. That's fine, but it's not what the NFL or NBC care about.. they certainly didn't expect more viewers than broadcast TV. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ed_Formerly_of_Roch Posted March 28 Share Posted March 28 As long as NBC is wiling to pay them likely even more than they'd get for putting game on regular TV, not a really a big issue for NFL. Yes they'd like higher viewership, but more importantly is the money they are getting.  And as other have commented, there are plenty other games on platforms other than broadcast, so just one more. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It actually has been simulcast on ABC and ESPN a number of times. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
