Tim Tebow’s New York Jets debut and Andrew Luck’s first NFL game highlight NFL Network’s live Week 1 preseason football schedule.
Four games will be broadcast live this week, with every other Week 1 preseason game broadcast on a tape-delayed basis. The live broadcasts are the Jets at
Bengals at 4:30 p.m. Friday, Aug. 10, the Texans at the Panthers at 4 p.m., Saturday, Aug. 11, the Titans at Seahawks at 7 p.m., Saturday, Aug. 11 and the
Rams at Colts at 10:30 a.m., Sunday, Aug. 12.
The NFL Network is only available in the Coachella Valley on DirecTV, Dish Network and Verizon FiOS. The NFL Network is not available on Time Warner Cable as
both sides have not reached an agreement.
A new wrinkle to preseason coverage for Week 1 begins with NFL Preseason Live at 4:30 p.m. Thursday, Aug. 9. NFL Preseason Live provides live look-ins of
Week 1 preseason games, beginning with the opening kickoffs. Host Rich Eisen and analysts Marshall Faulk and Michael Lombardi will take viewers around the
league in NFL RedZone-style, delivering live game action and highlights of Drew Brees and the New Orleans Saints facing Tom Brady and the New England
Patriots, Peyton Manning making his Denver Broncos debut against the Chicago Bears, Washington Redskins rookie Robert Griffin III in his first NFL action
against the Buffalo Bills, and more.
NFL Network will offer all 65 games of the 2012 NFL preseason schedule, beginning at 9 p.m. Thursday when Peyton Manning and the Denver Broncos travel to
Chicago to face quarterback Jay Cutler and the Bears, followed by the Atlanta Falcons hosting the Baltimore Ravens at midnight.
In addition, NFL.com’s NFL Preseason Live returns to offer fans live and on-demand access to preseason games online and in HD. Full DVR controls allow fans
to pause, rewind and replay both live and archived game action. Additional viewing options include picture-in-picture and a quad view mode which provides
fans the ability to watch four games on the same screen.
New to NFL Preseason Live this year is the Condensed Games feature, which allows fans to watch every play from an entire game – from opening kickoff to the
final whistle – in 30 minutes and commercial-free. For the first time, NFL Preseason Live is available on Android and iOS tablets with a free download.
