What I dont understand is that I can watch almost any Big10 or SEC game every weekend on some channel.

 

Enjoy it while you can

Does anyone actually watch EVERY NFL game?  I guess if you want to, it will cost you less than $2 per hour of watching, so $6 a game. 

 

I know a guy, about 20 years ago he had Sunday Ticket through DTV, not sure if he's still a subscriber. But his living room, he had one of those big (at the time) 50" or so projection TVs. On both sides he had 27" TVs. And on top of the projection TV cabinet, a couple of 20" TVs. So he could/would, be watching up to 5 games at once if he wanted. Did I mention he was a bachelor?

Peacocks drive a lot of people up the wall.

 

Many counties now prohibit ownership of them because of how noisy they are.

I don't mind stealin' bread from the mouths of decadents
But I can't feed on the powerless when my cup's already overfilled, yeah
But it's on the table, the fire's cookin'
And they're farmin' babies, while slaves are workin'
The blood is on the table and the mouths are chokin'
But I'm goin' hungry, yeah

Boxing was every man's sport until it was priced out. The NFL is halfway there.

Peacock has Tour de France 2025 exclusively for the US. Plenty of people, including me, have it just to watch the TdF. Now I can also use it for some NFL games.

Once upon a time you could get chicken wings at the butcher shop for free.

I believe to the price listed for ST is the stand alone without YTTV.  If you have YTTV, St is around $100 less.

 

Plus if you live in Buffalo, the games shown on Prime, Netflix, and Peacock will be available on local TV

 

But you do need something like at a minimum an antenna to watch the local networks

I am from Buffalo, but I live in Atlanta now.  But I will tell ya, the older I get, the more I miss it.  
 

I really enjoyed growing up in Buffalo, and I really think my kids would have loved it too.

 

That said, now that I know I can buy it standalone, I will gladly pay the extra $100.  I never miss a game.

Lots of Premier League too plus it’s cheap. I love it.

He acts like most people don't already have subscriptions to most of those services. I already have Alta Fiber (cable), Netflix, Amazon Prime, Peacock, and ESPN+.The only thing I have to subscribe to is Sunday Ticket and I can get the student rate. Talking about the price of services that stream games as if the only reason that people subscribe to them is to watch football is like including the price of buying a car in your calculations of the costs to drive to Chicago. Sure, if I didn't have a car it would cost around $20,050 to drive there, but because I have the car for other purposes, the drive costs a tank of gas.

 

Exactly.   The original tweet made a mountain of a mole hill.

• Since I live in the Bills' "territory", I get to see every Bills game via OTA stations without an antenna because I have cable.
• ESPN is included in my cable tier.  My cable system (Spectrum) also offers NFL Red Zone on a sports tier which provides TD plays from every game live or within minutes for a monthly fee.  I start it before the first week of the regular season and end the subscription when NFL Red Zone finishes for the season ... 5 months max.
• Several other services have monthly plans, including Netflix.  Depending on the schedule, you might only need to subscribe for 2 or 3 months. 
• I subscribe yearly to Peacock because it's so cheap, and I get to watch the Tour de France live.   
• I use Amazon Prime's free shipping (and free returns) so often that my savings on shipping pay for the subscription.

Of course, someone intent on watching every NFL game live (I personally don't believe that's actually possible for a person to do) probably doesn't have many other interests.

 

Besides, it's physically impossible for a person to watch every minute of every single NFL game live even if the technology is there to do so.  Even with split screens or multiple tvs, you can't divide your attention equally every minute to all the games, so you're going to miss something.   NFL Red Zone (available from my cable company on s sports tier for about $10/month for 3 or 4 months max) works well, plus NFLN has replays of many games.
