Yeah. NfL Network doesn't offer much for its ridiculous price. Football is very popular, however, there are three to four games shown on Sunday Afternoon, a Sunday Night Game, and a Monday Night Game. So six games available a week already. The NFL is squeezing every dime they can out of their league (non-profit) and is killing the viewers that would make AMC or Freeform say "Man... that is a lot of commercials."http://www.whatyoupayforsports.com/numbers/ These are for cable channels that broadcast sports as of June 2016 using SNL Kagan estimates. I didn't realize that ESPN has crossed the $7 per subscriber threshold. NFL Network is 3rd most expensive behind ESPN and TNT. And with only 8 exclusive games that aren't being simulcasted on CBS or NBC, I can see why Dish would say it's hard to justify the $1.40. The drop off after you get past FS1, TBS, and ESPN2 is pretty drastic for all the other channels that broadcast sports.
Drop the channel period! If the NFL wants, sell it online and stop asking people who don't watch the channel to pay for it.
