Even the players think the NFL is greedy!

1. Ensure that the TV and laptop are both Wi-Fi enabled.
2. Navigate to Settings > System > Display on your laptop.
3. Click Connect to a wireless display underneath the Multiple displays header.
4. Click on your TV when it appears in the list to connect your laptop.
and Viola!

In my experience these "Live" features are disabled during NFL live broadcasts as the local TV station does not own the streaming rights to NFL content.

Green Bay Packers and the Dallas Cowboys are on FOX @ 4:30 Sunday.

Your wasting your time watching any other games. :pepper2: :shrug:

They did this all season in college ball.
One Ohio State game was on Peacock. I spent the monthly fee of $6 to watch it….then dropped Peacock. I definitely got $6 worth of entertainment from the game.

If you want to watch it you will have to subscribe to Peacock.

I think this is the first time that a playoff game will not be on network television.

If streaming NFL postseason games catches on, I can see the Super Bowl being streamed in a few years.

It’s all about money

This is damaging to their already tarnished reputation. Sure wish Pete Rozelle was still around.

I just downloaded the app on my IPad and it appears that app is going to work! Thanks.

If you have cable it is on CBS.

Slit Their Own
 
They slit their own throats at some point. If people can’t watch the games, the fan base dwindles away. Demand is what perpetuates big bucks for team accessories and the occasional visit to a stadium. NFL can’t afford the, “Who cares.” attitude about their sport.

Spectrum does carry the Green Bay and the Cowgirls, Rams and Lions, Steelers and Bills and the Browns and Texans games this weekend. You probably could count the “Fish” out and who cares about the Kansas City Chiefs anyway?

Does anyone know how to get NBC 6 if you don’t live in the viewing area??

Roku streams several local channels around the country. You could check if Channel 6 in Miami is available, or try the local KC affiliate.

How else would they be able to pay players’ skyrocketing salaries.l?

Follow the money.
 
NBC owns Peacock. Probably giving NFL larger than normal payment for broadcast rights and getting huge opportunity to increase subscription base

So much for the 7 day free trial!

NBC’s streaming service will give you access to several games, including tonight’s contest and all upcoming Sunday night matchups. You can get a seven-day free trial, followed by a $6 or $12 monthly charge

(The free version of Peacock does not include live sports.)

I don't think there is a free version of Peacock. I was getting it for free from Xfinity, but they cancelled it.
