The college games were bad and this was historically the week the NFL started Saturday games.
The NFL loading up a Wednesday Christmas is stupid though. If it falls on a Sunday/Monday, then fine, but otherwise it's hurting players for a minor profit boost.
Yeah nfl has done Saturdays for a while after the rivalry and conference championship games are done. Didn't help that the first round college playoffs games were all blowouts.
If I didn't live in the market of one of the teams (ie it wasn't on broadcast tv for me) I wouldn't be paying for Netflix to watch the NFL today. In which case I'd watch the NBA instead. Personally the Christmas NFL games feel pointless. Like it's obviously just NFL greed (they're getting a bundle from Netflix) and so far it's nothing impressive imo.
Between prime, peacock, and now Netflix, nfl is starting to get behind a paywall
Indeed it is. I've said before in other posts that it's insane how you can't watch local sports without a cable plan unless you watch the NFL. And the NFL is moving in that direction too though the only positive is that if the team is in your local market for the time being you can still see it on broadcast TV unlike the MLB. For me at least I'm not incentivized to pay for every subscription service to get access to games. Nor am I going to pay that insane $80 a month Hulu w/ TV, Sling, etc bullshit that's just cable TV but streamed.
It’s not hard to stream nfl games, and this fragmentation will only serve to push people toward it.
