Looks like the Peacock Network strikes again for opening round of the playoffs (league, win)

Here are the NFL playoff games set to stream on Peacock:

Cleveland Browns vs Houston Texans, 4:30 pm ET/1:30 pm PT (on NBC and Peacock)

Miami Dolphins vs Kansas City Chiefs, 8 pm ET/5 pm PT (exclusively on Peacock)

So Mike Tirico simply needed to clarify that one was "exclusively" on Peacock and the 2nd game was not.

There will be two games on Peacock this week (admittedly I remember Tirico saying it was both Saturday and Sunday but whatever).

How about we redirect the conversation to the PPV aspect now?

PPV is coming ... Some day soon, we'll get hit with 'Super Bowl - only $99.99!'

I got cheated out of six Friday night Phillies games last season because they were on Apple+ TV. I'm a fan of capitalism, but the leagues and owners don't give a FF about the fans.

Oh, and now that we have MNF playoffs, my Eagles are on Monday night ... which effectively killed my football fun this weekend.

The prospect of a winning Apple TV bid played a huge role in sinking the Pac-12.

People are sick of signing up for yet another $10 service that will often soon become a $20 service.

I have had Peacock for a long time. Watching football on it is an adventure. Sometimes it buffers really bad. Never had that with games on Paramount+ or Amazon.

They should have paid you.

There’s very understandably much speculation that NBC put the Dolphins at Chiefs playoff game exclusively on Peacock to attempt to capitalize on the seemingly large number of Taylor Swift fans that have been watching Kansas City Chiefs games since Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce has been dating Taylor Swift.

Peacock is terrible for live streaming. I had games get as far as 5 minutes behind and resort to streams of NBC feed.

Unless my wife has Peacock already - I'm not making a special purchase for this. The only reason I see the Amazon Prime games is because my wife has Prime. I wouldn't make a special purchase for that.

I guess growing up in a day where you only had a few channels of TV - and they didn't broadcast the entire day... it's not a big deal if I miss a TV broadcast.

You train people how to treat you. If you want to pay for football in the future, go ahead and suck up to their demands this weekend.

Do they not make enough money already with the advertising - that this is necessary?
