Exactly. The NFL is the one of the most popular programs on all of tv, and they’re not looking to jeopardize it. Amazon alone pays the NFL a whopping $1 billion per year for the privilege of streaming the crummy Thursday night time slot.
It was a huge scandal in 2015 when the New England Patriots was accused of intentionally underinflating their footballs to make it slightly easier to catch, leading to a $1 million fine, a four game suspension for Tom Brady, and losing two draft selections. All that over a slightly flat football. The idea that they’d intentionally rig an entire match and risk losing their massive media cash cow is, well, stupid.
