no way, people would hate that. It is cheaper then direct tv, which I dont think it will be, and it only lets you see one game. The beauty of nfl sunday ticket is the ability to watch all the games. And people shouldnt have to pay to see the local game. Man, imagine if the superbowl was on pay per view, plenty of peopel would do it, but that would suck.

The NFL Network will become the only source for Pro Football and it's already on cable as well as SAT.
I'm guessing at $10 per game by that time on a PPV basis or a better deal for the full season.
Can't see ANY possibility of this one. The current system is the best cash cow anywhere in pro sports (or anywhere ELSE on TV for that matter). No way they are going to screw that up - they are too smart for that. Maybe 20 years from now, things will change, and the networks won't offer so much coin for the rights - then they could consider it. But I can't see that happening in 20 years...

They'd lose too much in the way of advertising money if it were on PPV. Even Cable they'd be reluctant to concede the Super Bowl to. Maybe regular season, but playoffs/super bowl = huge advertising revenue!
btw: anytime you hear Hail to the Redskins on DC 101 call in and get 2 tickets to the HOF game. 5 failed attempts =/
