NFL.com Streams Nearly All of Thursday Nights NFL Network Game

As told by a blogger: This was a new experience: propping my laptop on the kitchen counter so I could watch the Cowboys-Packers game live while I cooked dinner. At first, I was suspecting a terrible experience. After all, NFL.com said it would only provide live “look-ins” to NFL Network’s coverage every 30 minutes or so (along with plays in the red zone), but it turned out they simulcast the entire game. Well, almost. They clipped a few plays here and there, and at one point had their sideline guy yapping about this and that while the game was underway behind him. Super annoying, but not the “stupidcast” that I called it earlier. Perhaps the NFL bowed to the overwhelming pressure from fans and threw us a bone? Anyway, during the breaks a web studio team analyzed the action, aired some replays, ran some promos and occasionally plugged IWantNFLNetwork.com.
