Of course some are bidding on it, the NFL may not get what they want, but someone will get it.
It has been reported that Disney bid a Billion, Apple/Amazon higher, but we do not know how much.

So what that the NFL does not get what they want, it just shows DirecTV vastly over paid for it, another great business decision they have made, agreeing and paying $1.5 Billion for something that should of cost a billion at the most, specially during the timeframe of the contract they lost 11 million subscribers.
And they all know that if they get the same number of subscribers as DirecTV had, they’d spend 5 times revenue for the privilege.
The best option would be to allow CBS and FOX to sell out of market football games on their respetive apps..for a additional fee
NFL Sunday Ticket: Apple taking streaming football negotiations into overtime over ‘rights to the unknown’
It’s hardly a secret that Apple is negotiating with the National Football League for streaming rights to NFL Sunday Ticket. What seems impossible to know yet is if Apple will actually replace DirecTV as the new home of the valuable pro football package. The Athletic’s Daniel Kaplan cites...

Whoever wrote this article is clueless on what sunday ticket is..its only includes the rights to show out of market games produced by CBS and FOX...nothing elseNFL Sunday Ticket: Apple taking streaming football negotiations into overtime over ‘rights to the unknown’

Or perhaps instead those labels apply to people who think it can only ever be that?
The Sunday ticket is sunday ticket..nothing else is up for negotiation...maybe in 10 years when broadcast rights are available..things might be different
So you're saying it's the same as it was from the day DirecTV started broadcasting it?
So Sunday Ticket Max (streaming), the Mix channel, Fantasy Zone, and the DirecTV-produced Red Zone channel were all offered in 1994? Oh, and in HD?
Its all out of market football...HD no big deal but Redzone is nice if you like a highlight channel that ESPN could do in the 90s
So no, it's not the same, is what you're saying.
That's the point. Sounds like Apple may have some services that align with things they could do with NFLST (like their forthcoming VR/AR offerings) that they want to include in their rights package, vague or otherwise.
So no, it's not 'just Sunday Ticket', thanks for playing.
At the end of the day...it still just reselling FOX and CBS NFL out of market feeds...not much you can add to that...
There's a lot, you just lack imagination or the ability to practically apply current trends in technology or underestimate a potential winner's willingness to make it their own or.... ya know what, it's probably a rather lengthy list so we'll stop there.
