Not just gamefaqs. NFL doesnt allow embedded videos. If you want the YouTube or twitter clips, you have to go to YouTube and twitter.

If I would guess...
NFL teamed up with Youtube 7 or so years ago to have an official highlight channel.
Since they got content id on their videos, channels like the one you linked to shows copyrighted content when they show NFL highlights.
NFL allows these channels to show these highlights on two conditions.
First is the ability to put ads on the video, which revenue goes to NFL.
Secondly it is blocking the video from being shown on apps. If you want to see it, then they want you to see it on the NFL channel. They Youtube embedding script being used here most likely counts as an app from the view of the Youtube website.

Nope. I remember hearing NFL get called No Fun League. Maybe this was a part of why.
