New NFL TV Contract Speculation
 

ESPN’s MNF contract expires in 2021 and the other TV contracts expire in 2022.

From The Athletic:

I'd say move MNF back to ABC, but we'll still get a good dose of Booger.

**** it, move MNF to The CW.

That ESPN broadcast needs a whole new crew. I'd rather have Dennis Miller back than what they've had the last two years. Or the terrible marriage of tirico and kornheiser. Thay would still be better.

TruTV ftw!!!!

I read somewhere that the MNF team was interested in hiring Romo

Monday night Booger and some guy that sold out for some shit show like Holy Moley is the best they could do. Really??'

Booger is toast


And I agree, return MNF to a broadcast network and it will be crazy again.

I’d like to see a deal like this.

CBS has a Sunday afternoon package
Fox has the other Sunday afternoon package
ABC has MNF - ESPN/ABC get Thursday night and Saturday games
NBC keeps SNF and some Saturday, and Thanksgiving game

Screw the NFL network

Romo wants to announce Super Bowls so the MNF package would probably have to move from ESPN back to ABC for that to happen.

New contract needs to include a "no booger" clause.

Doesn't this mean the cap is going way up as well? We should have plenty of cap as time goes on to sign Mahomes and Jones to long term contracts.

Yup

Now that CBS isn't going to have the SEC package I would think they have even more money to spend.

So I have no idea. Are we all sure they’re going to pay up? Eventually the live sports bubble will burst. I mean ESPN on the content side is in shambles. I can’t imagine they are wanting to pay through the nose for MNF when all people do is complain about their personalities announcing it.

NBA got a huge bump their last time. Are those networks happy with their returns?

I hope it does. But I’m afraid it won’t

before or after riverdale? ROFL

ESPN may be hurting but Disney is not.

I imagine that the NFL has at least one more big TV contract before the bubble bursts. Of course im not helping when I watch most games on my phone on nfl mobile. But I did pay them $10 to watch redzone on my phone all season

Also needs to be a No Fouts Clause as well. I think Fouts is worse than Booger.

Monday Night Football to Netflix or Amazon

I would think so for certain since it’s dealing with revenue.

The NFL needs to figure out what to do with streaming games because they have no plan as of right now outside of forcing everyone to use Sunday Ticket and they are so far behind the other leagues.

I just hope Fox doesn't get more games

Romo and nantz are a great pair. Hope they don't get split apart. If espn is willing to spend that kind of money, maybe they should worry about getting better games.

19 of the 20 most viewed shows on TV last year were live sporting events.

That’s why live sports are so attractive. They are DVR proof for the most part.

Most people like to watch live sports events live.

Hopefully Directv gets the Sunday Ticket so I can continue to get it for free.

I would pay for a subscription that just allowed me to watch the game w/out announcers but still have crowd noise.

I watched a Bama game this year on one of the ESPN channels that was I guess a simulcast of the game, but on this particular channel the entire game was broadcast from the sky cam behind the offense on every play, an no announcers. It was glorious.

WE'VE BEEN OVER THIS DAYZE.

.

Yeah, I got all jazzed after your suggestion a while back; turns out my sound system is pretty basic; just a sound bar and sub; and don't have the option to turn down the center channel. It was a cheapy-buy thing at Costco, so pretty basic.:(

I double check again this weekend but I think I just have options for Bass, Treble and sound type (Movie, Sports, Clear, etc).

Serves me right for buying a cheap set up. lol

I get Disney has more cash than the Federal Reserve, but one thing they also have is sharp pencils. They've shown a propensity to not throw good money after bad, See Star Wars. Shit fell a little short and they nuked EVERYTHING.

I dunno, maybe ESPN has come out upright on this MNF deal, but as much heat as theyve taken AND as shitty as their matchups have been it's possible Disney could remove ESPN from the running for NFL.

But like I said, I know nothing.
