Amazon Prime Video is trending for all the wrong reasons. Days after a viral tweet argued over the worst user interfaced between Hulu and Prime, the streamer got their hands on the broadcast of an NFL game — and Twitter’s have a field day with it. Combining frustrations such as the user interface mentioned in the previous viral tweet and overall quality of the broadcast has created the perfect storm Amazon’s PR department probably doesn’t want to return to after a holiday break.

Though it’s not the first time Amazon has broadcast games — it has a deal with Fox for digital simulcasts for Thursday Night Football contests, after all — it’s one of the first times Amazon has sole rights to a game. Fans are certainly noticing as the San Francisco 49ers and Arizona Cardinals face-off in Glendale; so much so, in fact, the platform has become a trending topic on Twitter because of its current woes.

I don’t get how y’all hate Hulu’s interface when Amazon Prime Video’s interface looks like a warehouse.

Ruining
Streaming started taking over professional soccer and it’s almost ruining it. The fact that San Fran and Arizona are playing on amazon prime makes me so pissed @PrimeVideo
