Hope you have a Peacock subscription. NFL playoff game exclusively on Peacock, Jan 2024.

If peacock still does free trials. Save them for playoffs.

[Dick_Cheney]

They usually have free trials, and I'm pretty sure last year they had a Black Friday or a Holiday deal for 99 cents a month. Which was great because that's about all it's worth.

 

Anyways, it's dumb that you need access to 7 different streaming services to watch all the games you wanna see. But hey. What can you do.

To me this is a sign that the streaming fad is never ever going to work for sports. They are desperately trying to force people to watch sports on streaming services.

Playoff games should be free to view on television.

The NFL are a bunch of peacocks

just too many of these streaming sites. big $. when the season rolls around I go to my trusty nfl bites.

It’s around $5 a month when I started and you can cancel pretty much anytime.  It’s not that big a deal.  I use as I like some of the nbc shows and I typically watch them the next morning at 5 at the gym without commercials.

 

I wouldn’t stress over it.  You’d pay the same for a Starbucks.

Just in time for Comcast to eliminate free Peacock for subscribers. They can kiss both cheeks of my ass.

It is comically easy to watch any game I want for free at this point. I don't know or care what peacock is

I'd say it's more about the fragmentation of the viewing that the NFL keeps engaging in.. if I'm paying for Sunday ticket then let me watch every single damn game *ON* Sunday Ticket

The problem is like 150 years from now, its gonna be like $3,000 a month with inflation.  How are we going to afford it then???

Yeah but as of now, AFAIK, the free trial is just 7 days. The Bills game at LA in December is also on Peacock. Choose this or the playoff game, not both (unless you live in Buffalo or LA or wherever the playoff teams are in the WC game, where the games will also be on free TV.)

Greed greed & more greed.

 

The only good news that may come of this is the possibility that we can pay for select games on a streaming service in the future, which would be better than the NFL Sunday Ticket package.

[LabattBlue]

Has there ever been a wild card game on ESPN?

So you're planning on living to 200?

 

Good genes.  😜🏈🦬

 

Im not doing the YouTube ticket as I go to this one wing joint where there is a bunch of guys and gals that are fans of different teams.  It’s fun and 1/4 mile away.  Having a couple of pops isn’t a big deal in moderation.
