News: PFT: Jerry Jones: NFL is excited about Netflix becoming a "huge part" of our future

[Whirlwin]

They just put on the Tyson fight at AT&T Stadium

 

[atlantacowboy]

They need to fix their streaming because it went to crap as soon as the Tyson fight started

Too many devices connected to your network can cause buffering issues. I paused every device other then the tv and phone......fight telecast smoothed out.

 

[Whirlwin]

Get a gigabyte

what a trash and i mean TRASH product. amazon too while im at it

 

[blueblood70]

what I heard it was the entire time for most everybody immediately it wasn't just the Tyson fight itself was a whole entire evening but yeah they should have been able to handle it and apparently they couldn't but I think the same thing was happening early on when prime was getting Thursday night games it was not very good and it got better sometimes even a service provider can underestimate the power they need you both love to make things go smoothly and they'll learn from it I'm sure but I'm still not signing up for Netflix no matter what Jerry says I didn't watch the fight I didn't sign up and I'm glad 'cause I heard it was all nonsense

Everyone is saying that but ours was great all night. What. When, and Where? I’m not saying it didn’t happen , but what are the specifics?

What do you use, “air tv” and DVDs?

I love how they sneak in commercials now. Pretty slick to get us to buy in then change the services or penalize us with advertising. I only do Amazon because we pay for prime shipping. You get prime music that way also. Unfortunately in College Station prime is no longer prime. You get your package when you get your package. All of these platforms were better, more customer oriented in the beginning.

hello stream. i will never pay for the "privilege" of watching an NFL game.

 

[nate dizzle]

Mine was fine until after the women fought. It then started to get wonky.

Same here

Jerruh and Netflix -- a match made in heaven. Over hyped sports events, poor streaming, and Jerry with frequent publicity/interview ops.
What's next on Netflix at AT&T, Rowdy Vs. the Minnesota Viking in a cage match?

 

[foofighters]

My time watching the NFL is coming to an end. With this version of the Dallas Jerry's, I've nearly got nothing left about the NFL that remotely interests me.

 

[Jarntt]

That Jerry, always concentrating on what matters most...

 

[Carson]

Everytime jerry speaks they need to just dub the Ted DeBiase theme music in the back

“Money, money, money, mooonnneeeyyyy”

 

[Runwildboys]

Oh, they know. The whole world is complaining

I don't know how much live broadcast Netflix does, but I don't think it's very much. I'm guessing they'll figure it out.

 

[JayFord]

Before we pile on Jerry

So is every owner and the advertisers that link with them

The NFL is one of the greediest businesses that cares less about their fans because they know they’ll pay up no matter what…

Soon you’ll have 75% of your screen be ads and 25% of the screen be the game and you’ll have to pay to get the full screen be ad free

And the Super Bowl soon will cost either a premium subscription on paramount or fox or just outright be ppv

 

[Brax]

Yep a huge part at some point soon most games will be streaming on services you have to pay for, that also means a big price increase for those services, it’s all about the money and for Jerry that’s what matters not winning. A lot of sheep will sign up and pay not I

I recall NFL commissioner Pete Rozelle, during a TV interview, promising that NFL games would never be shown exclusively on pay television.

I believe that was some time close to 1980.

I can't prove it. It was a TV interview and I can't locate a video, want to be up front about that.

The NFL used to be a collaboration between a well-known business owner and a local, community government. Fans, by extension, were "co-owners" through taxes that helped pay for infrastructure that supported the stadium. The business owners benefited from good PR.

That's why teams always had the name of the city, state, or community followed by their description. Dallas Cowboys.

That was a different time.

Yes. Now taxpayers still foot the bill for stadiums and then immediately get bent over anyway.

Seen the price increase for prime, don’t want commercials you pay extra It’s 2.99 a month I think extra.

Event at the Stadium and a possible deal with a company like Netflix is what Jerry cares about.
