For the second straight week, DirecTV’s “NFL Sunday Ticket” package is experiencing problems for those trying to view games through the app or online.
That came too little, too late for those trying to view the seven early games.
When server problems created havoc last week, DirecTV said in a statement: “We fumbled the ball yesterday. We missed the opportunity to deliver an exciting day of football. If you were affected by the difficulties, we will reach out to make this right. We thank you for your patience while we work on this!”
This is the final season that DirecTV will be the exclusive carrier of “Sunday Ticket." Amazon and Apple are among the bidders for the package of out-of-market games after commissioner Roger Goodell said during the summer that he expected a new carrier. DirecTV extended its contract in 2014 and pays $1.5 billion per season. The new package is expected to fetch at least $2.5 billion per year.___Copyright 2022 The Associated Press.
