The NFL can opt out of it's current TV deals in 2029

[Royale with Cheese]

For those who are complaining on how to watch the game...just be good enough to make the team and then you can watch from the sidelines.

I would rather go to the bar and watch the games then pay for all of these streaming services.

Bars are going to be packed... I'll just have a glass of water please, you can leave the pitcher

They always are and while I would have a few beers, I wouldn't get completely tanked. I would have to go to work the next day. Feeling sluggish and hungover is no way to go to work.

The one thing that's in play which helps the networks - the NFL's antitrust exemption.  Expect significant political blowback if Sunday afternoon games do not remain on free OTA tv.

So is this where I do the Jim Carrey “there is a chance” meme?

just going to need to buy Netflix, YouTube TV, Amazon prime, peacock, paramount plus, Hulu, disney, and espn plus. Piece of cake. 
 

(Oh, and then odds are, the games will be on major holidays anyway, and so I won’t be able to see them). 

Its called cutting the cord and its a great way to spend way more money.

the question I have is how many fans are going to be willing to buy 3 - 4 streaming services to watch games on Thursday, Sunday, Sunday Night and Monday. Knowing that the biddiing will probably get out of control and have to be passed on to the consumer
 

 

Plenty. There is zero sign at the moment of the market for NFL football slowing.

My old boss had a saying: "Pigs get fat, hogs get slaughtered." The NFL sure is convinced their gravy train can never derail.

But what about the rest of the economy?

stop streaming. 

i cut amazon and netflix when they started jacking prices for all this live streaming crap I didn't ask for. consumers are far too willing to bend the knee. Like Augie, I only watch the Bills. DOn't care about anybody else until at least mid december
