@J._Bricker I think you hit the nail on the head here. But I still call 🐂💩on paying to watch any sport especially my hometown teams.

Steelers v Bills at 1330 PST, Eagles v Bucs at 1700 PST

Ya I'm pretty sure that's the primary reason.  There's already another game at 8 and they want maximum coverage for each game.

Thanks, and I’m in agreement with you. Could be in response to everyone “cutting the cord” or following what some collegiate teams or conferences have done. 
 

*By the way I do have both streaming services I used as examples.

The NFL will do ANYTHING for a dollar. It makes me sick. I wished this "streaming" crap would backfire, but it won't. Would like to be able to see both games today.

[RipzLipz]

They’re doing it with men’s NCAA basketball games as well. 1/3 of the Big Ten conference games are on Peacock & they’re some of the traditionally better teams to boot. Utter BS. Why conferences even have networks of their own now is beyond me. Nothing but greed involved.

[Eric 26]

@J._Bricker We have Amazon prime in my house but it’s secondary as a streaming service due to buying so much stuff on Amazon and if they require a separate subscription my wife and I agree we’re not going down that road. With that said my 17 year old son has friends coming by tonight and it appears they will be streaming both the UFC fights and the game tonight 😃

Houston Texans Defense is laying the Smack Down right now on Joe Flacco & the Browns.

My son’s friends  came by and they’re watching downstairs on sling tv and another friend set up my wife and I upstairs 😃 

[J._Bricker]

@Eric 26, nothing like tech support 👍

[Eric 26]

@J._Bricker I’m out of reactions for the day but man I couldn’t have said it better😉

Demeco Ryans has to be in the conversation for coach of the year.  Houston was supposed to win about 4 games this season.  Instead they win 10, take their division, and throttle the Browns in the wild card round.  Whatever they do from here on out is a bonus for a team that was predicted to be terrible.

[VolFan]

Houston is definitely a hot team right now - I wouldn’t bet against them except against Baltimore.

[Darren.]

I did NOT expect a Houston beat down on the Browns.

Not on my bingo card at all. A bit surprised, but then again,

I've seen Stroud play 2x so far, and been *super* impressed

with his play.

That's who they will probably play next round if both the Chiefs and Bills can hold serve at home.

[VolFan]

The Chiefs seem to have this one in the freezer…maybe the Steelers can get frisky against the Bills 

[Mobasser]

My son in law is at the Chiefs game tonight. He got the tickets  very cheap, because it's so cold. It's -3 degrees out there.

[throttleplate]

I was watching it on peacock because my dad is subscribed just for the WWE, the football game was choppy and buffering so i shut off peacock turned on my vpn and watched a free stream of the game with no buffering.

[padlin]

When my Roku starts buffering and such a power clear of the tv clears it up, as in pulling the plug so it’ll reload.

[TnRiver46]

I cut out TV and just listen on the radio nowadays. I’ll go to a restaurant or friends house if there’s something I really want to see 

 

YouTube TV sounds like a decent option if you split it with your neighbors but it would suck to pay for TV and not be able to get NFL. 

[RipzLipz]

Thank Christ our local NBC affiliate got their contract sorted out right before the game yesterday. How convenient.

 

I noticed Jac Collinsworth was shown as part of the crew covering the KC/MIA game. Add one more punchable face to the list.

 

Note: The above scene always makes me laugh to tears when I see it. Poor McLovin.🤣🤣🤣

[gim]

This is not just an upset in Dallas, it's a butt whipping.  Embarrassing effort on defense by the home team.  Jerry Jones does not look happy.  Mike McCarthy may be out of a job.

[J Francho]

It's a horrible mess. 

[NavyToad]

As they used to say, “How ‘bout them Cowboys!” LOL!

[gim]

Bill Belicheck may be getting a phone call from Jerry Jones in about an hour here.

[AlabamaSpothunter]

It's easy to blame the coach, as it is to blame the QB, and in this case Dak really lost this game for the Cowboys.  

 

Even the balls that didn't get intercepted were awful, the importance of an accurate QB can be seen with a blue-collar guy like Purdy and Niners.   Big arm, big legs look good, but timely accurate passing seems to win the big ballgames imho.
