    @PrimeVideo why your stream so terrible? Could you please try to fix it? #TNFonPrime

  • DonaldJKunt Josh (@DonaldJKunt) reported

    @PrimeVideo Why is the picture quality for 🏈 so much worse than literally every other network? Aren’t you based in Seattle? You would think this game would look amazing with so much time to prepare

  • Bullthe_Butcher BulltheButcher (@Bullthe_Butcher) reported

    @PrimeVideo Your streaming quality of #NFL games is garbage.

  • blaka__ blaka (out here mopping up Wendy’s) (@blaka__) reported

    WHY IS THE QUALITY ALWAYS **** @PrimeVideo

  • AirMaxReborn89 Oakland Sports Fan (@AirMaxReborn89) reported

    @mikeMaher @PrimeVideo That sucks. Hopefully it gets better. I’ve never had an issue with their streaming here in Sac.

  • iamsonny0 Sonny Amabile (@iamsonny0) reported

    @PrimeVideo @49ers @Seahawks fix how blurry your broadcast is please come on this can’t be like that 😭

  • _cerami_ Lord Cerami (@_cerami_) reported

    @PrimeVideo if we have to pay to watch football at least make the quality half decent. This shits blurrier then the fuzzy cable porn channel from the 90’s

    Fix your feed @PrimeVideo

  • HoosierBuckets JD (@HoosierBuckets) reported

    @NFL @PrimeVideo The quality of Thursday Night Football is so bad that I can’t watch it. All other streaming services are fine on my AppleTV.

  • SHOOTER162 Chad Dearth (@SHOOTER162) reported

    @PrimeVideo seriously, why is Thursday night football always blurry? I’ve updated the app, what is the problem?

  • marsroving J Mar (@marsroving) reported

    Hey @PrimeVideo @NFL what’s the story with this janky @NFLonPrime feed. We are paying you and cannot even see a full play without stuttering, pixilation, or buffering. Don’t tell us our 240 mbps or our router is the issue either. Just Fixit!

  • MatthewHartway CptnOblivious (@MatthewHartway) reported

    @NFLonPrime @PrimeVideo @macklemore This game is a snoozer but at least the video quality is horrible

  • annabell414 Chiwa Mama (@annabell414) reported

    How in the heck did @PrimeVideo get this contract for @NFLonPrime when the picture quality looks like something from the 60’s w/bad rabbit ears? Everything else is fine, but this is crap every week. Gives me a headache to try and watch. Fix it or give it up!

  • am071621 AM071621 (@am071621) reported from San Diego, California

    @NFL @NFLonPrime Anyone watching TNF on Prime with AppleTV. Quality of the picture been horrible every week. Not a internet speed issue, plenty of Bandwidth. Amazon been saying Engineers have been working on it. No issue watching other programs on PrimeVideo, just live video

  • BrentSm46983218 Brent Smith (@BrentSm46983218) reported

    @PrimeVideo the picture quality of the Thursday night games have been bad the last few weeks

  • Bobwehadababy_ Jeffrey David 🎣✝️ (@Bobwehadababy_) reported

    Another TNF another terrible @PrimeVideo production

  • mikeMaher Mike Maher (@mikeMaher) reported

    @jspam414 @PrimeVideo Yeah, this has been the issue all year. Different people get different streams. Mine were unwatchable the first month of the season but have been perfect the last several weeks. Now it's unwatchable again.

  • mikeMaher Mike Maher (@mikeMaher) reported

    @AirMaxReborn89 @PrimeVideo Yeah, this has been the issue all year. The first few weeks, some people had an unwatchable stream while others had perfect ones. Mine have been perfect for several weeks after a few unwatchable ones. Now it's back to being terrible.

  • Gqboiler GQBOILER #1 (@Gqboiler) reported

    @PrimeVideo nfl video quality is awful. Please do something. Been awful all year

  • jbrown94305 Jim Brown (@jbrown94305) reported

    Watching TNF on @PrimeVideo. The picture freezes often and all sound was lost since before the first score by SF. WTF? This seems to happen every week. Ironically, no problem when the commercials are playing. Is this a problem with the feed from Seattle or the internet streaming?

  • Salute2ThePOWr Matt (@Salute2ThePOWr) reported

    How is it that @PrimeVideo never actually works on my firestick? Isn’t that like yalls whole thing?? I’ve even reset the damn thing. The rest of my apps work just fine. This has been days. This firestick has been a mess

  • sayitaintsooo62 debra Mallory (@sayitaintsooo62) reported

    @PrimeVideo I'm sorry, but your NFL coverage SUCKS!! The HD quality is great, but I feel like I'm watching Arena football! And you don't have enuf wide coverage😫😡

  • morbital morbital 🇺🇦 (@morbital) reported from New Westminster, British Columbia

    Hey @PrimeVideo, TNF is almost unwatchable, fix your damn servers, ridiculous! #TNF

  • brianjcarpenter Brain (@brianjcarpenter) reported

    Watching #tnf on @PrimeVideo is a terrible experience. Why can’t they figure out a better way to fast forward

  • uppityokie Lynn from OK, feral liberal housewife (@uppityokie) reported

    The video quality on #ThursdayNightFootball is so bad it's almost unwatchable. I can stream anything else on #PrimeVideo and it's perfect. The problem is only on TNF and by the way, video on commercials during TNF is perfect.

  • HDKapbt Amanda (@HDKapbt) reported

    @jbrown94305 @PrimeVideo I was told by Amazon chat that this is a technical glitch and will be investigated and resolved in 2-3 days. Not sure how that helps…

  • volcanoHeather Heather McFarlin ☮️ (@volcanoHeather) reported

    @NFL Maybe you should have checked that @PrimeVideo was actually good enough to have quality live streaming before signing a deal with them for every Thursday night game. Every week we have to suffer through a blurry stream on @PrimeVideo. You make enough to be better.
