What Will The NFL Look Like In 2020 ? / Game Might Not Change Dramatically, But How And Where We Watch It Will


 With seven seconds left in Super Bowl LIV, the Seahawks' Andrew Luck makes the biggest play of his NFL career. The quarterback scrambles right and dives for the goal line. Officials signal the winning touchdown.

Millions of delirious Seahawks fans tear off their 3-D glasses in celebration. Thousands more dial up instant replays on their hologram-projection TVs, reliving the play from every conceivable angle.
Although the London Jaguars say they tackled Luck short of the goal line, the microchip inside the football doesn't lie. The game is over and celebratory fireworks light the sky.

Welcome to the future. This is one scenario illustrating what the NFL experience might be like in the next decade, a 2020 vision, if you will. Chips that determine whether the ball has crossed the goal line? Holograms that simulate the game being played on a chessboard? Teams not only in the United States but also London?
