Increased streaming of NFL games is here, with major platforms like Netflix, Amazon Prime Video, and Peacock now showing exclusive games, making it easier for fans to access content on their terms but also more expensive and fragmented for some to watch every game.

In his latest commentary, Pete tells us about another time — more than 50 years ago — when he almost missed another Steeler playoff game due to a totally different NFL broadcasting policy.
