For the first time ever, NFL games will stream over the Internet. And theyâll be available for viewing at the whopping cost of zero dollars, zero cents.
Wow.
According to Terry Lefton and John Ourand of SportsBusiness Journal, whose story will be published on July 28, the 17 NBC games will be available for viewing at NFL.com and NBCSports.com.
The apparent plan is to use the televised broadcast, with ads sold specifically for the web sites inserted in place of the commercials.
Other NFL broadcast partners arenât happy with the development, according to SBJ.
âThe NFL is changing the rules as we go,â a network source told SBJ. âThe right to stream games was not in any of the contracts we signed.â
NBC also might face friction from affiliates whoâll lose ratings points to folks who watch the game on the Internet instead.
