I remember when I used to work for Directv, and one of the biggest pitch we used to sell new customers, was that nobody else has Sunday Ticket. I wonder what they are using now?

Who lives in oregon? Do you get 4 games every Sunday afternoon as opposed to just 3 before the night game?
I don't know if Oregon is important in this equation, never been there, but I usually get 4 games,(only bonus for the Bears still existing.)TNF, the SN game and MNF.

Had the Ticket deal for free one year, didn't utilize it much tbh. But DirecTV kicks the crap outta Dish in general.

The Dish sucks, don't ever use it. Like you I get 4 games a week, added red zone this year. Think I'm good to go.

RedZone would be great for Fantasy.

(If it weren't for baseball I prolly just go with over the airwaves. Maybe.)

Love the red zone. Best part no stinking commercials. As a fantasy player and in a couple pools it's all I need. Naturally, I watch the entire Pats game if they're on.

You could bypass the other stuff and just get red zone if you wanted to?

Comcast threw in Red Zone to keep my business this month as I'm moving and told them I was considering a dish service to replace them. They perked up really fast once I mentioned the dishes and they reduced my monthly bill and loaded me up on packages. Looking forward to checking out redzone this fall.

It's not available to everyone, only to those that can't get Directv itself, for example some apt. buildings. Also keep in mind you will still need to watch the local teams on local stations as they will be blacked out on the app.

True but most importantly it is available for me. I purchased it and now can have 3 games going at the same time. Will watch the Saints on the laptop, the best out of market Sunday ticket game on my phone, & have my local team on my tv

:suds:


The NFL package is probably the only thing I miss about Directv. But I couldn't justify keeping the huge monthly bill for all the useless channels just to have the NFL package.

We have our local channels via antenna (45 or so, with 20 of those being useless or redunant), and we have a Roku on each tv in the house.

The NFL has a package where you can get the games you want, but only after midnight of the day of broadcast. I'm not getting it, but just thought I would throw it out there for others info.

I get on board with this, but they'd probably take the better games off of the national broadcast. As a Cowboy fan in Vegas we routinely get 13 or more Dallas games. I can't complain too much.

They can't piss off the boys writing the big checks until they can see a way to replace that revenue...in the meantime streaming is incremental.

Yeah, $200 is expensive to pickup 5 or 6 more games. All the games was nice when it was new and I had "NFL parties" that started at 12 noon and lasted til 12 midnight in my man cave...now, not so much...closer to empty nester stage...I have a man room at best now, and sometimes I watch the 4p games if PIT is not playing, sometimes I don't.
