Our family is enjoying thanksgiving and are all here and agree that is extremely unreasonable of the nfl to charge consumers to enjoy a national sport, which historically was family entertainment and costs incorporated under basic network tv and/or cable.
Sitting around the fire after dinner and watching football with family was enjoyable growing up. Tonight could not watch the denver / kansas game after eating and are watching some other program. For years this has been part of our holiday and today we were told by our brighthouse representative that they would not subject their customers to such costs and would not promote some nfl package and thursday night extra deal. We all agree and are outraged at the nfl and the monetary benefits they want to gain from consumers on something that should be included at no charge.
Our cable bill today is $175 per month, which is $2100 a year. Now, do you think that it is unreasonable for a customer of any cable company to ask that these games be included at no charge. I am really disappointed in the nfl. The change in business strategy from decades ago up to this date. The nfl does not realize what they are taking away from our young adolescent viewers, parents, consumers, sports fans, etc... Including but not limited to the happiness that have taken away and what we as customers really perceive them as... A greedy giant that wants more money.
Please be the voice for us, we are too small and unless we pull together, they will continue to nickel and dime consumers... It is very sad, especially when I look into the living room and see all the guys in my family upset and the little boys come out in them as if they were just gut punched because they cannot watch a simple game on tv and a game that was once enjoyed and all had a passion for and historical salaries compared to the salaries today clearly show what football has become. Somebody better do something.
I have Starlink for internet and watching Thursdays night football is worthless. It would constantly freeze the picture and the picture quality bad. It is to the point that I cannot watch the games on Amazon prime.
Putting the Saturday night game on a " Must pay for " streaming service is really sticking it to the NFL's loyal fan base. It's a short term gain for you, but a long term disaster for your Platform !

It appears your company has become too greedy, making football fans subscribe to peacock. I'm done with football
Who was the mastermind who put a PLAYOFF gave on streaming service?. i WILL NOT PAY FOR A SERVICE to watch a NFL game period...What's next, the SUPER BOWL! Roger needs to resign !
The decision to require a streaming service subscription to see a playoff game is beyond the pale. I would love to see the KC-Maimi game and the commercials but I'm not signing up for streaming services. I hope everyone refuses to submit to this extortion.
We are very upset that the NFL decided to put the game on streaming Peacock! They usually have it on regular TV, NBC. what a cheap way of making money for sports for your fans to have to pay $5.99 to watch on TV! We are all very pissed off. And no we didn’t pay the $5.99. We will just watch the NBA.
Apparently, sheer greed supercedes the importance of fans by limiting access to games by limiting game viewing to paid subscriptions. Shame on you! I'm 78 years old, a lifelong football fan, and already pay for tv. The additional subscription fees are an impossible burden.
I am 60 years old and The NFL has finally lost me. I have a collection of over 45 Superbowl hats and I am going to destroy them all if this racist anthem is played at the Superbowl If played I will turn off NFL forever
Tony Romo talks to much get rid of him ,i wont even watch the game when he is on and nbo for him for super bowl
Ravens got screwed due to refs not calling penalties on chiefs when they were standing right where it happened so I think the refs for the ravens vs. chiefs game need to be fired or suspended
I just noticed that the black national anthem will be sang at the Super Bowl. I will not watch it or the Superbowl. I will never watch another NFL game period.
I love watching NFL football. I look forward to it. However, I have been wishing for an option to mute Tony Romo. He is so obnoxious and it is so distracting while trying to watch the game. Please bring back Al Michaels and let Tony Romo go!
Thank you.
