Default couldn't find it last night....

not that, but TNF.

Found out that the Thursday night NFL game is still happening, but not on broadcast or cable/pay TV. It is on Amazon Prime steaming only.


Quote:
After years of jumping around different networks, TNF has found a new permanent home in 2022: Amazon Prime Video. For the first time, a streaming service has a season-long exclusive broadcasting deal with the NFL.

Fifteen TNF games throughout the 2022 season will be streamed on Amazon, with the only exceptions being Week 1’s kickoff game and Week 12’s Thanksgiving games. Legendary announcer Al Michaels (play-by-play) and Kirk Herbstreit (analysis) will call the games all season long

Just as Major League Baseball has sent some exclusive broadcast rights to Apple TV+, the NFL is embracing the streaming model, with Amazon Prime taking over Thursday night duties. And, let’s hope they do it right, because the company holds those rights for the next 11 years, with some exceptions, like on Thanksgiving.

This is where things get a little tricky. If you live in the home town of one of the two teams that are playing on any particular Thursday, you’ll likely have an opportunity to watch, even if you don’t have an Amazon Prime account. Simulcasts will be offered on broadcast networks, letting you watch for free with a good HD antenna.

Amazon gets that the streaming audience could be a bit different than the broadcast one, so it’s planning some unique twists on the game. It will, for instance, overlay stats and game updates using its “X-Ray” technology.

Amazon has hired some of the most recognizable announcers and commentators as it jumps into the NFL. Al Michaels, who has called both Monday Night Football and Sunday Night Football, will lead the team. Kirk Herbstreit, who has focused mainly on college games and been a key player on ESPN’s “College GameDay” program, will be the color commentator. And All-Pro players Richard Sherman and Tony Gonzalez will be analysts, alongside former Los Angeles Ram Andrew Whitworth and Ryan Fitzpatrick, who played with nine teams during his career.

The wifey has amazon among her many streaming services, she is like a multiquadgazillionairhess, so I watched a little, but would not pay to get amazon if I did not have it currently.

BTW, ditched ATT uverse, as was about $180/month, have YT TV, not bad, 1/3 of the price, you get FoxNews and Golf Channel, so I am good.
You also have access to many season of most shows, been watching the early seasons of Street Outlaws. Works for me as every damn network and many cable stations only have WOKE programming, no need for the movie channels as the last good movie made was Unforgiven.
