Also the NFL and Yahoo have an agreement to stream a live regular season game for free this year: http://www.engadget.com/2015/06/03/n...ve-stream-game

Assuming this is being treated as a "pilot", but I can't see why broadcasting games free online wouldn't still deliver the same tremendous ad revenue-per-viewer that the NFL collects via TV network distribution. Surely the networks would prefer exclusive rights to the content and the NFL would lose those royalties - it will be interesting to see how that shakes out.
