Need Sunday Ticket? Bills Televised Schedule included:

[NakedSquid]

I am trying to decide if I should buy Sunday ticket.  So I put this together and figured it might be helpful for some other fans facing the same problem.  I'm in Irvine so Chargers/Rams get priority.  

 

According to my calculation I'll need Sunday ticket for 7 Games at $399 that comes to $57 a game.

$57 is about how much my bar bill with tip comes to for Sunday football. I'd much rather spend the money with friends, good food and beer than further line the NFL pockets.

I usually pay for that nfl+ because I work a lot of Sundays plus church. You can rewatch the games about an hour afterwards. I pay about $100 for that

I live in NE so I'll get the 2 Pats games.

Thanks.  This is helpful.  I might wait till near the season to see if there is another promo for Sunday Ticket.

So how's it work on west coast for example on Oct 1st Fox has the doubleheader so there will be both an early and late Fox game.  On the east coast there will also be one early game shown on CBS, of the 4 games being played, a good chance I will get to see the Bills on local TV where I live in NC at 1:00. 

 

But there is also as is every week one 4:05 start on CBS.  So even if no local teams playing on 4:05 slot, does west coast still get that one late CBS game as they don't want to show their one game on TV starting at 10:00 AM?

 

The week prior Sept 24th  Fox also has doubleheader so would be one CBS game televised.  The 4:05 game involves Carolina V Seattle so that will be shown by me so that week no 1:00 CBS game.

 

Having said all this I did sign up as already a YTV subscriber so I got it at a decent price.  But after schedule came out was second guessing myself a bit as likely there won't be too many weeks I need it as game will either be on coast to coast or on local station.  It helps too that Carolina games  being the local team, mostly are carried on Fox.

I live in Michigan and did the same analysis right after the schedule came out. I came to the same conclusion as you, but as I already had YoutubeTV, the cost was only $249. Along the way, I also realized that Sunday Ticket would also give me the flexibility to watch whatever game I was most interested in on the weeks when the Bills are playing in Primetime or the 4:30 game, instead of only the Lions. In the end, I decided to go with it for this year and see how it goes.

   Got YouTube TV bundle but no ST.

I’ll find streams on the games not shown. 
   Plus, am interested to watch the Panthers this year so I’ve got all those games free.

If you can run up a $57 bill at a west coast bar for a 9am game, I'll buy you a breakfast beer.

Sorry for my ignorance on this matter, but what do you watch on YouTube TV? Is it just another streaming service? It looks like I’m gonna need an education.

I am sorry for you.

[Vetriano]

I’ve had the ticket the last 3 years and enjoyed it- even at that cost. I prefer to be in my own home with a Clean bathroom & good food.

But giving it up this year- not worth my time and $$. don’t like changes the nfl has done over the years- extra game regular season, Thursday night games, expanded playoffs. Do I watch - yes- but there’s other things I can as well

The 4:25 games are all national games.  I think the only chance you dont get it is if the local team is on the same network.  I did the same spreadsheet for living in NH and I am down to 2-3 games I wont get.....will go to a BB bar for those.  I get the extra benefit of the two NE games being 1PM and in market.  Super lucky with how the schedule worked out this year.

That’s like 3-4 drinks out here. I’ve been in Michigan all week and I’m enjoying the hell out of sane beverage prices

This is the key to me..not just for the Bills..but to have on any game i want, when i want. Plus Redzone.

For the record, a lot of online services especially for the NFL, are different/unavailable over the border here in Canada.  I often have the same questions about popular online services.
