Some NFL fans weren’t happy they got shut out from watching the Los Angeles Chargers-Buffalo Bills game after the 4:30 p.m. matinee on NBC.<\/p>\n

The Pittsburgh Steelers defeated the Cincinnati Bengals, 34-11, on NBC in a game that kicked off Saturday afternoon.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Some fans left the network on, figuring the broadcast would transition to SoFi Stadium \u2014 until they figured out the Chargers-Bills game was airing exclusively on Peacock.<\/p>\n

Peacock is a subscription-based streaming service that some sports leagues have deals with to broadcast select games, forcing fans to pay monthly subscriptions just to watch maybe one game per season.<\/p>\n

Fans weren’t happy about the surprise.<\/p>\n

“Imagine making your fans have to pay for NFL Sunday Ticket, YouTube TV, Amazon Prime Video, and now asking them to pay for peacock to watch a game. F— you @nflcommish @NFL @NBCSports,” one user<\/a>, @AllenRizzard, wrote on X.<\/p>\n

“Not a single soul asked for no commercials in the 4th quarter for $5.99” – the broadcast will have no visual ads for the final 15 minutes of the game.<\/p>\n

“F— the @NFL <\/a>Pay for the Sunday ticket. Then pay for prime to watch Thursday games. Then pay for Peacock to watch this dumb a– Saturday game,” another wrote<\/a>.<\/p>\n

It’s the first NFL game to be exclusively shown on the streaming service. The NFL has partnered with Amazon Prime Video since last year for Thursday night games.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The Bills had won three of four games heading into Saturday’s contest, including wins in Kansas City and a dominant win over the Dallas Cowboys in Week 15.<\/p>\n
