Sling also offers a Sports Bundle that has everything I want, including Red Zone Network. So Sling now gives the local channels where you live? I just Googled it, says it only carries NBC and Fox in certain cities. No ABC or CBS. Or they will give you an antenna. Nothing in Western NY is listed BTW With You Tube you also get all the local networks which are where the televised games are on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes I just renewed mine, glad this will be last year so tired of 200$ cable bills. When this year is up I’m canceling my Directv, only have it because of Sunday ticket when I want to watch tv I stream anyway. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Logic Posted April 18, 2022 Share Posted April 18, 2022 For years now it's been possible to get an NFL Gamepass subscription -- all NFL games live as they happen, no blackouts, NFL Network, Red Zone, All-22 tape, archive of games going back five years and every Super Bowl ever -- for $200 per year. Then it's just a matter of broadcasting your computer screen to your TV either wirelessly or with an HDMI cable and BOOM, you have the same thing as DirectTV, but without the satellite subscription. I'll be interested to see if there's a new agreement for NFL Sunday Ticket with Apple and all, but it's not as if we can't get everything that Sunday Ticket includes, right now, and have been able to do so for years now.

billsfan89 Posted April 18, 2022 Share Posted April 18, 2022 Unless it is insanely affordable like ESPN+ for hockey (5 bucks a month you get almost every NHL game plus whatever else in included in ESPN+) then I will just stick to going to bars or piracy for non-primetime games.

I hear you about the Internet bragging. But why do you think streaming is unreliable? Can’t remember the last time I had any issue streaming live sports or anything else. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miyagi-Do Karate Posted April 18, 2022 Share Posted April 18, 2022 This report may be true. But we have similar reports like this for like 20 years. I am not going to believe it until Apple rolls it out officially. if Apple does get it, it will be nice to cut the cord with DTV. I have wanted to move To something else for years. 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not because of Apple, just because anyone will have access to it now. Long long time season ticket holder that is moving to Charleston, SC so this would be really cool to have apple pick this up.

Utah John Posted April 18, 2022 Share Posted April 18, 2022 So I've had NFLST on DirecTV for years, with a satellite dish. Service has been great. But we're moving this summer and honestly the only reason I've had DirecTV has been so I could get NFLST. It sounds like people here have experience getting NFLST via streaming. Any recommendations on which service we should get? I want local programming as well as HBO etc. Thanks in advance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it is not live, its not worth the $200 for me because I have used ST, 95+% times for live Bills games alone. The other items have no value to me.

I don't foresee Apple playing that game. ahh yes the annual call in to threaten to cancel your services so you can get the best deal game…can’t say I miss those days…although I had my fun on a few of those calls 😈 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Full team option won’t come cheap. 95% of that market wants “their team”. That is the golden goose. Expect a price hike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
