A major game only being available on peacock
I am concerned that the only way to watch the Miami Kansas City game is to sign up for a subscription to Peacock streaming service.
Football is a national pastime and enjoyed by all income levels and should be available.
Having to pay monthly to watch one game is unacceptable and opportunistic. It puts those who love the game and the fun at a financial and ethical dilemma.
I think you should you reconsider this misguided, opportunistic decision.
Please do the right thing for all fans.
Desired outcome: I think you should you reconsider this misguided, opportunistic decision. Please do the right thing for all fans.

Streaming of NFL games
I think the NFL is greedy, streaming of games and making people pay, more than we already are paying is greedy.
I was a long time football fan (60 years). I stopped watching NFL football a few years ago when you started disrespecting the American flag (kneeling thing). I just started watching again this year, and now I will not be watching any of the remaining NFL games and hope there are thousands/millions others like me.
I hope this idea fails.

Chiefs bad weather game and using Peacock
I am saddened for the players and fans that you did not change the location of the Chiefs Dolphins game. No one should have to play or watch at those dreadfullly low temperatures. It’s not even safe to be playing. The ground will be rock hard and you will bear responsibility for those that get hurt. Shame on the NFL.
Another problem is having to pay to watch this important game on Peacock. Bad decision. As a Bronco season ticket holder this is dreadful!
In the future please make better decisions- no playing if it’s below 30 degrees and regular tv channels that people don’t have to pay for.
Desired outcome: No games if below 30 degrees - common senseNo Peacock for division championship games

Forcing streaming service to watch game
I do not have Peacock — I don't care for NBC or that streaming service. I did not want Amazon. I find them to be a deceitful Business with foul business practices. Yet you force me to use these disturbing companies in order to watch football. This is the first year you tried this. You will lose me forever. I don't like your pandering to 13% of the...
Read full review of National Football League [NFL]Peacock be given exclusive rights to broadcast a NFL playoff game
I too live in an area where streaming is an issue.
A NFL game should be broadcast on a public television station such that rural area viewers can watch the playoff game.
This pertains to the game being played today, Saturday the 13th of January, 2024.
Given that we have a major snowstorm presently in Michigan, and on top of it without power (at the moment) to our local bar where they have small litlle 31 inch tv's and possibly have Peacock availability, it is unacceptable that the management of NFL attempts to force us to ignore our safety by forcing us to drive to a location where the playoff game can be watched.
Is this revenue really that important to the existance of the NFL corportation?
Claimed loss: Forcing many of us to travel to a location where a streaming service is available, raises a safety concern, that in my opinion, puts the NFL in a position to be held liable for causing the need to travel in unfavorable weather conditions.
Desired outcome: All NFL games should be broadcast over the air and steamed for those that don't have OTA capabilities.

NFL has become very greedy, I will only watch them on NBC, ABC, CBS FOX or NFL channels but will boycott all premium channels they are on and wish everyone else would do the same so that they would not do that. You keep watching and they will keep adding premium channel games.
NFL Playoff Games
I think the NFL's decision to make an important playoff game not available for over-the-air broadcast is absolutely wrong, a disservice to loyal fans, and a MONEY GRABBING scheme, forcing Miami or Kansas City fans to pay $5.99 (or more) to watch their team in a playoff game. Fans of the other teams don't have to pay this "FINE" to watch their games.
Desired outcome: All playoff games should be available on over-the-air broadcast channels.

Streaming dolphins/chiefs' game on peacock
Congratulations Roger Goodell, NFL Board of Directors and NFL Owners. You have finally figured out how to "kill the golden goose"! Your decision to sell the rights exclusively to Peacock for tomorrow's playoff game between the Dolphins and Chiefs is the last straw for many lifelong NFL fans like myself and many of my friends'. I/we never thought that thi...
Read full review of National Football League [NFL]Streaming Playoff Game
The NFL has decided to exclusively stream one of the biggest playoff games of the year. Some customers do not have access to high speed internet. Sone customers aren’t savvy enough to sign up for a streaming service. But most of all, why change what was working before? The NFL makes plenty of money. I won’t be buying peacock to watch my favorite team play.
Confidential Information Hidden: This section contains confidential information visible to verified National Football League [NFL] representatives only. If you are affiliated with National Football League [NFL], please claim your business to access these details.
The only way to stop this Peacock-only broadcast nonsense is not watching. Once the companies advertising see the ratings and realize they're throwing away thousands, if not millions, of dollars, they'll stop buying time.
I don't think the almighty NFL has the will to pay a carrier itself to air the game(s).
Programming
You have to be kidding me ! you greedy mother f***ers putting the KC / Miami game on Peacock, like the NFL needs more revenue. I will never pay to watch on Peacock and I hope many fans feel the same way. We the fans who spend thousands on game tickets and merchandise do not deserve to be ripped off by the NFL’s poor decision to put games on Peacock or any other pay to view offering network.

Streaming games
The NFL wildcard game between Dolphins and Chiefs will solely be on Peacock. Me and many of my friends are retired and do not subscribe to ANY streaming service. Many do not even have CABLE (no ESPN). We watch BROADCAST (via antennae) TV because cable and streaming is TOO expensive!
PLEASE DO NOT DO THIS AGAIN. College football has lost us because Bowl Games are on ESPN. You will lose us as customers and worse yet we lose one of our favorite pastimes - watching football.
Desired outcome: use Broadcast TV for NFL games

NFL games on Peacock....a pay channel.
I am writing to complain about NFL Games, especially play-off games, being on a pay channel like Peacock. WHY? We pay an extreme amount of money for cable or dish to watch your games and have for decades. My dad watches faithfully. He doesn't have a smart TV or an Ipad or Iphone and he is disabled. Why should he have to watch anything other than regular cable to watch football. Everyone is getting so greedy. Football is for regular tv. Not Peacock and Not Amazon Prime.
NFL is trying to rebound from alot of bad publicity and making everyday consumers pay additional to watch games is rediculous!
Desired outcome: Put all games on regular cable tv.

I am 66 and have been a lifelong Fan so having any game let alone a playoff game on Peacock is not acceptable and I will not be watching this game at all!
Also the games on Prime which I already had and I watch most of them but there are issues I had with the game flow in reception, hick ups with streaming, camera men, delays not sure what every issue is and where it comes from but it is not good and I am thinking of not watching it either?
The NFL putting games on Peacock. Especially a playoff game. The NFL already uses Amazon and everyone I know is complaining about it. Now you want us to have to pay for a channel that we don't normally watch to watch a playoff game. This is unfair to the fans, and I hope your ratings go down. I will not prescribe to an app to watch one game. I know it is all about the money. This is like a scam from the NFL and Peacock. I know I am speaking for a lot of other fans who feel the same. I just want my complaint to be heard.
TV Broadcasting
The decision to not broadcast the Chiefs vs. Dolphins playoff game on a free station is a huge slap in the face to the fans that support either of these teams throughout the regular season. Many of these folks are on fixed incomes & depend on their televisions as their only entertainment. SHAME ON YOU!
I am fortunate enough that I could afford to subscribe to PEACOCK should I choose. However, there is no way in H#* I will be doing that. As an avid KC fan living in Oregon I follow the scores online. GO CHIEFS! I will always support my team but I will not spend another dollar that goes directly to the NFL. You have made it very clear that fans are NOT important to you. GREED is a choice, and your choice is flat out DISGUSTING.
Desired outcome: Broadcast the game on a station that is free to the general public.

Do not buy it that is the only why to Maybe stop this nonsense!
Peacock
Since this is the only place I could find to log my displeasure in regard to the NFL granting exclusive rights to Peacock for the KC wildcard game. This is the worst bonehead NFL move yet. Just more evidence that the fans do not matter one bit. More greed and the padding of the pockets of those already so rich they’ll never spend it all.
Change it to regular NBC.
Desired outcome: Move game to NBC

I agree 100 %, ESPECIALLY a major playoff game. I was already forced to subscribe to ESPN+ for the 49ers game on Christmas. I am retired on a fixed income. I can't afford to keep adding streaming subscriptions for NFL games. Just B,S,
Playoff game on a paid streaming channel
It is bad enough that the NFL gets oodles of money from Sunday Ticket and even had the nerve to put a regular season game on a streaming channel that I have to pay extra for, but to put a PLAYOFF game on the same streaming channel? Clearly the NFl is way more concerned about making a buck than the fans. I am disgusted and i will not pay for the service. I just won't watch. I hope the NFL and Peacock lose out on this.
Desired outcome: DO NOT PUT PLAYOFF GAMES ON ANYTHING BUT FREE, NETWORK CHANNELS.

Games being shown on pay networks
It is bad enough that you show games on Amazon Prime (I am fortune to be a Prime member), but you also show games on the NFL Network (which cost extra on Spectrum) and Peacock. Now I see that one of the playoff games is on Peacock, which I am not paying extra for. I am a Panthers and NFL fan, but if the NFL keeps putting games on pay networks, especially playoff games, I will stop watching. If money means that much to you, let's see how much money you make when people stop watching because they can't afford paying for all these networks. How many people actually have Peacock, I don't know anyone.

This is low, all about the money. I'm a 68 year old fan on a fix income and now you're asking for more money.
Totally agree. Sad state of affairs. Totally unnecessary money grab. No respect for us fans.
I agree and am appalled that after years of playoff football being on television channels everyone has, you are now restricting more than half of the fans from watching a wild card game.
The only reason your Amazon Prime move worked is because Amazon prime subscribers for shopping get the channel free. Without that, most wouldn't pay extra for it and your ratings would show it.
This is another assinine move by the NFL to restrict fans and exchange corporate money.
Annoyed fan
Integrity of the NFL
The League Office can continue to put their collective “heads in the sand” and insist that the state of NFL officiating has no negative impact on the integrity of the game, but I can assure you it certainly does. Any unbiased poll taken of sports fans will surely paint you a different picture than the one you seem to hold.
Blaming the victim (Detroit Lions) for the fiasco in the closing minutes of the Dallas game is incredulous! The video evidence speaks for itself & clearly, in the eyes of the public, shows a flagrant error on the part of one official that the Commissioner & League official’s cavalierly dismiss.
The outcome of any game should always be determined by the players, not part time referees!
Mr. Commissioner, the booing you receive at the commencement of the yearly NFL Draft is well placed and deserved!
Claimed loss: Respect and faith in the integrity of the League.
Desired outcome: Full time League Officials.

Detroit lions game vs dallas cowboys
That was the worse official call I've ever seen I'm 61 years old and they have made plenty.
If the Lions lineman checked in as #70 he lined up wrong and the play should have been stopped by before started. The Coach of the Lions told them before game that #68 was the receiver. This is so ridiculous that the official that made that call should be fined & kicked out of the NFL ! The game should be reversed and the Lions should win ! This is so rigged you should all be sued for cheating !
Claimed loss: My respect for the NFL
Desired outcome: Detroit Lions should be the winners

I'd like to know how much the ref in the Lions/Cowboys game was paid to throw this game?
This was wrong and everyone knows it. Moreover, Rodger goodell should be removed as commissioner for not correcting this.
Streaming Only Games
Why is the NFL broadcasting games only through streaming services? Why do we need to pay money to join a streaming service just to watch a football game. This is outrageous and makes no sense. The NFL needs to re-think this decision as the loyal fans dislike this move so very much! I'm quite sure this is just a money making move by the NFL, but it turns most fans away.
Desired outcome: Re-think this bad idea.

Suspensions and fixed games
I do not agree with the suspension of players for hard hits. For years, the fans celebrated huge hits by defensive players. Are you planning on making the NFL a flag football league? If so, I am done with the NFL.
Since betting has become normal in this country, many of the games being played look like they are fixed. A couple this past weekend that looked fixed were the Denver Broncos and Dallas Cowboys games. No calls by the refs for either team even when there were aggresious fouls against them. There were many questionable and non calls against them It looked like some players on the losing teams just quit playing.
After 65 years of watching NFL games in person and on television, I am done. Football is still a contact sport. I personally believe no one is trying to hurt another player. I only mentioned 2 games, but this year it seems like the whole season is rigged.

It's pretty SAD that a sport that once was for guys who played on their streets and fields in their neighborhoods for the LOVE of the GAME! And played in High School to learn the game and being apart of a TEAM and and at the same time help us prepare for life. Today the youth still needs that. It's bad enough that most neighborhood's don't have the football fields to play or the schools don't have the funds. They at least can sit at home with family to watch a football game without their parents having to PAY for it. ON A SATURDAY! It's obvious that us PO people aren't good enough for you because we only have penny's to pay for if you're lucky basic cable. So you lost another family to watching any of your games including local because NOTHING IS FOR FREE! I hope your HISTORY ratings are so low that I'm just threw with YOU!
