Cheektowaga Chad Posted July 25, 2022 Posted July 25, 2022 With so many streaming services now a days, it would be awesome if a company would package a bunch of theses apps together into one single service That way you get the stuff youd like and only have 1 payment to make Wouldn't that be convenient?

Metal Man Posted July 25, 2022 Posted July 25, 2022 The NFL app on your phone or tablet used to give you your local market games as well as nationally televised games for free. Sounds to me like they have decided to start charging for something that was free for years. 5 1 Quote

Those are the easiest to get. And I can get them right on the CBS and FOX apps too. Expand I am a cord cutter and use a digital antenna. They are cheap and the picture quality is usually great. The local market inclusion in the old app still had value for me though. If the game opposite the bills was a good one I would use that on my tablet to monitor it. Also if the Bills weren't playing it was nice to be able to set up my tablet to keep track of the game while doing something else, like gaming. If they allowed it to be installed on a roku or something along those lines it would have value for someone without cable for the national games at least and I'd consider it. Definitely not worth paying for though for me now though. 1 Quote

GolfandBills Posted July 25, 2022 Posted July 25, 2022 Seems kinda silly to get this when NFLN is airing the first two Bills preseason games live.. I’ll just record those two Quote

BillsFanSD Posted July 25, 2022 Posted July 25, 2022 (edited) I don't care about access to actual live broadcasts. I live in the Midwest an have Sunday Ticket for that. Can't wait until this migrates away from DirecTV, but it's fine for the time being. I watch the 1:00/4:00 ET slots every week whether the Bills are on or not, so I feel like I get my money's worth out of it. During the drought, that was pretty much all the NFL I ever consumed. Since 2019 or so I've been watching more podcasts, replays of other games involving rival teams, and stuff like that. I thought about springing for Game Pass last year and never bothered, but I think I might open up my wallet for NFL Premium. I know already watch condensed replays during the season. I'm 100% sure I would watch the Bills' all-22 each week if I had access to it. I occasionally watch random replays on NFLN if I happen to stumble onto one that I don't remember watching at the time, and I'm sure I would do that with this service throughout the year, including the offseason. I know I can probably get this for free, but I'm also interested in having radio audio available. It probably doesn't synch up quite right with live television, does it? When I lived in central Indiana eons ago, stuck watching the Colts all the time whether I wanted to or not, I used to mute the television and listen to the radio call instead. Would love to do that again with random games. So much more personality than the network guys. Edited July 25, 2022 by BillsFanSD Quote

I assume I can watch on the big TV using Roku. Expand I hope you are right! I already have the NFL app on my smart tv (android os) and fire stick/cube. So if I could watch using that I may consider trying this service.

Expand that sure makes it sound like the games will only be available on mobile devices. Quote
