Cousins could be an option for them as well.

Yahoo is paying $20 million for the game.

NFL = not dumb.

As if they need it.

Not everyone has internet, or likes to watch stuff on a computer, nor can they stream it to a TV. So stop isolating people. We all know they don't need the money.

The alternative is they put the game at 1:00 ET opposite 8 other games and hardly anyone can (or would want to) watch the game. It's still on local TV in the Baltimore and Jacksonville markets so those fans can still watch the game on TV, and it's available to anyone with fast enough internet in the country rather than just to people with Sunday Ticket.

Should be able to get it on NFL Sunday ticket as well at 9am, last time there was a exclusive game it didnt show on Sunday ticket so it may not be an option

I can't remember what I did last time there was a London game.

I thought I had to stream it via PS4 through Yahoo full screen I was pissed then I called up DirecTV and *****ed cause im supposed to get EVERY Sunday game they gave me money off my bill

[unsung122212]

So, those with Sunday ticket subscribers may not be able to get the London game on Sunday? I certainly hope that won't be the case when my Browns play in London later this year.

[fatediesel]

Sunday Ticket won't carry Sunday's London game. It's part of the exclusions in the Sunday Ticket terms of service.

Package consists of all live out-of-market NFL games (based on customer’s service address) broadcast on FOX and CBS. However, games broadcast by your local FOX or CBS affiliate, and select International games, will not be available in NFL SUNDAY TICKET.

Haven't previous London games been on TV? I remember watching Giants/Rams on TV last season, and some Jax game.

Sunday's game will be the only international game that isn't on TV. Next Sunday's Saints-Dolphins London game will be another 9:30 AM ET game available nationally on Fox. The October 22 Cardinals-Rams game is a 1:00 ET game and will be a regular Fox game. The October 29 Browns-Vikings London game is at 9:30 AM ET and will be on NFL Network nationally. The November 19 Patriots-Raiders Mexico City game (assuming it stays in Mexico City) is a 4:25 game on CBS.

[imsounoriginal]

Got it, thanks.

Man, that's a crappy lineup except for that Mexico City game.

They are giving the Browns a run for its money as the worst franchise in the NFL.

[imsounoriginal]

Niners looked OK last night, at least in the second half. I'd say at least the Jets and Colts look worse.

[BizCat]

There have been London games on regular programming at 9 or 9:30.

That's the case for Baltimore and Jacksonville markets. Make it a sunday morning primetime game.

Hoyer was supposed to sign as a backup somewhere else when he was a FA (forgot where exactly) but when Shanahan got the job in SF he called Hoyer and told him he had a chance to be the starter here because they have worked together before, knows Shanahan's offense. With that said it is widely know that barring a great season, Hoyer is a placeholder until SF can hopefully sign Cousins, who also thrived under Shanahan.
Hoyer shows flashes of competency but it mediocre and serviceable at best. Thankfully Garcon has really stepped up, Hyde is great when he's not getting injured and the rookie WR Taylor is looking good on the offensive side of things.
I don't know what next years QB draft class looks like but at the moment all signs still point to Cousins. Shanahan wants someone he has worked and is comfortable with. Lynch and Shanahan are in this for the long haul but don't necessarily have to take a long development route for a your QB if they don't have to.
I am the first to say if my team stinks but I am optimistic especially after the last two years of misery under Tomsula and Kelly. But the huge thing is that Baalke is gone and York is taking a hands off approach so far. I don't think anyone was expecting a quick turnaround but at least want to see signs of life and competitive games, which so far they are especially compared to the last two years.

I don't get the 49er bashing. They are in much better shape than teams like the Jets and Colts. They are young, they showed last night they have about 35 new players on the rosters with a new Head Coach and GM in year one. They are just getting started and they are better off continuing to lose this year to get a high pick and a QB.
