    Let's do this right. Open Nissan Stadium this Sat. night and let us watch on the big screens - you'll make a fortune in concessions. Do this! ;)

    The NFL does not allow teams to do this, they wouldn't even allow it during the SB last year for the falcons iirc

    something something ratings

    quote from last year:
    "We share your tremendous excitement that the Atlanta Falcons are headed to the Super Bowl. NFL rules prohibit us from using the Georgia Dome for broadcasting the game. Fans wishing to gather with other fans to watch the game can consider patronizing neighborhood businesses who will be showing the game."

    maybe this is just for the SB but i don't think so

    People don't go to Nissan Stadium with the playoffs on the line. What makes you think they'll go watch grass?

    Move the team tbh

    It's actually against the law (copyright laws) to broadcast a game on a screen bigger than so many inches and having a certain amount of people watching in the same place.

    There was a big hoopla over churches having Superbowl parties a while back but the NFL decided to ease the restrictions and allow religious institutes to bypass the rules with certain restrictions.

    I know this applies to the Superbowl in particular but I think it covers NFL games in general since it's all about copyrights etc.

    Not pressing the issue but how were they able to do it in the past? I distinctly remember watching the Titans game during the playoffs back in the SB run.

    The league probably didn’t bother to force the issue. But then their lawyers advised them that if they don’t enforce their copyrights, they lose them.

    Much like how there used to be full games on YouTube, but now the league polices that.
