Fans who followed “NFL Sunday Ticket,” the league’s out-of-market game-day package, from DirecTV to YouTube were angry Sunday when YouTube TV experienced issues streaming the nine games that kicked off at 1 p.m.
The company acknowledged the problems and said it was “working on a fix.”
The issues persisted well into the second half of the games and seemed to justify concerns about how seamlessly the product would be able to move from a linear platform to a streaming service. YouTube became the home of out-of-market games on CBS and Fox when it reached an agreement in December on a seven-year contract worth more than $2 billion per season.
