The issue for the NFL is the next contract and this drop will be used by the nets in the negotiation. The real question is what other entity is out there that would compete with the TV nets for the games? Amazon, Apple, Disney and Netflix have huge pockets. Just don't know how interested they are in running live sports
The league would be domed for sure if they decided to have the bulk of or all of the games on a platform where the viewers would have to pay additional costs just to watch their team. All of those companies you listed not only does it take cable or a dish but additional cost to then get those companies. Now the bulk of the games all the viewer needs is an antenna to see them. I just bought a new TV about 4 months ago and Target threw in an antenna for free. I already had an antenna so I put that one on the smaller TV I have on my desk so I can watch while on my computer.
