You think Twitter (reportedly) spent $10 million to secure the streaming rights to these games to not make a couple bucks off of it? Viewers will be shown the same national ads as they’d see on the TV broadcast. Former NFL wide receiver and ESPN broadcaster Chris Carter will be in the booth for Twitter, going live 90 minutes before kickoff to provide analysis, insight, and likely answer some fan questions given that it will take place via Periscope. Play-by-play and color commentary will come from the broadcasting team of the network Twitter carries the stream from-Thursday night games are split between CBS, NBC, and NFL Network.īut Twitter will have its own pre-game, halftime, and post-game commentary happening via its live streaming video app Periscope. There will be a live feed of tweets so you can watch commentary from fans, players, and others in real-time as the game happens. Built around that stream will be the type of content you’d expect from Twitter. Twitter will be using BAMTech to stream the network broadcast of the game that appears on TV.

The game will be carried globally- except for Canada, which gets the shaft because the NFL has an agreement with Canadian carriers to broadcast the games on TV only. Also Canadian football is slightly different than American football and they should be punished for it.Ĭanadian users will be blocked from watching based on location and IP address. 22: New York Giants at Philadelphia Eagles 17: New Orleans Saints at Carolina Panthers 6: Arizona Cardinals at San Francisco 49ers 22: Houston Texans at New England Patriots
