NFL 2023-2024 Season

Thought that the Lions Game this Thursday would be on Amazon, but no, on Peacock, getting a little confusing what game is on where.

Same for College, Michigan on Peacock last week, on CBS/Paramount+ this week.
The Thursday opener has been on NBC since 2006 as part of their SNF deal. Before that it was on ESPN & ABC.

Why are you posting a bunch of info about College Football in a thread about NFL and how I belived the game would be on Amazon?
 
Because you posted this:


Sorry for trying to help you out. Won't happen again.
That was a little snarky on my part….sorry.

it it was just a rant, only watch Michigan anyways, all I have time for since I returned to working.

I think its on Peacock this week Because its a NBC game ....
Amazon should start up Next Thursday.

Only thing he posted that I am Not sure of, is the part about All teams on the Peacock 2 times ...

I don't see the Buckeyes or TTUN on more than once ...
Your game was last week, my guys won't be till the Maryland game.
 
Just want to say, away game, Kansas City was a 4.5-point favorite, might be a interesting season.

Glad I have Sunday Ticket to view it.

As for the Lions and Chiefs ... you had to watch on ST ?

I hadn't thought about that, this game was on the ST ???

I watched it on NBC ... but I'm also within the Detroit area ...
Wasn't it on Peacock ???

NFL is costing lots of money, but I'm really liking the parity. The one question I had about this season is whether the parity of last season would follow up this year. If the opener is a sign of things to come, the answer would appear to be yes. :)

The quality of the stream on Peacock was outstanding last night. Was going to cancel them shortly but probably keep them around a little longer.

Props to the Lions, hope they keep it together and go places this year, given the performance by the Chiefs I'm surprised they didn't win by more and their offense only put up 14 points. That edge rushing game is deadly and if you overplay any of it they'll throw it to Aman-Ra and get you back to playing honest defense.

Only nice thing I have to say about last night. I had more thoughts but I dropped them.
 

Theres a Lot that goes into that number ...
Looks like around 16 was the majority of the country ...
Of course Detroit and KC had More

Cincy's number being up, says a few things, its not that far from KC and the KC loss Helps Cincy in the long run.

Curious, were All those platforms available last year ?

NBC Sports Digital, and NFL Digital platforms ...
I wouldn't know how to watch a game if my game was on either of those platforms ...
 
I haven't felt this good after a loss since the Giants Pat's game when Hostetler was the QB for the Giants. Pats defense was great, too bad they spotted Philly 16 points in the first quarter. But Jones was allowed to throw. I think we saw he can throw like Brady, in the sense of keep to 30 yards or shorter.
 
Big contract QB and Coach of the year lose 40 - 0.
I think if the Cowboys had a TE that could catch the ball it would have been 70 - 0. I cheered when those idiots gave Jones a big QB contract and thought they were good because they beat a string of bad teams at the end of last season. For 2 years Daniel Jones and his band of ballerina OL had been the Cowboys best weapon. Oh and congrats Dabol coach of the year. LOL
