Howard Katz, the NFL's senior vice president of broadcasting, spends months analyzing, debating and reshuffling the 272 games to maximize viewership and fan interest while trying to maintain fairness for the teams. “When Tom Brady retired, we were concerned about the strength of the NFC package because there were so many terrific Tampa Bay games we were looking at,” Katz told the Los Angeles Times. “Then a month later he unretires and we sort of started all over again.”
