Where I get my football diet

To whom it may concern. I quit with cable or Direct TV several yrs ago. I just have the internet and an antenna .  I do a couple streaming services. The only NFL games I dont get are on ESPN. Last yr I subscribed  to NFL+. It was 40 a year and I got every primetime games, and access to non area games on all devices but not TV. This yr NFL+ premium for 80 a yr allows you to watch the NFL network, The RedZone and access to all games being played on all devices plus TV. Can watch all games in reruns and access to all 22 narrative games. I use to pay 140 a month, now my TV and internet with a couple streaming services is 60 a month. 80 for the yr seems like a good deal for me.

Yeah I scooped up NFL+ as well, and I have ESPN+ thru the Disney+/Hulu bundle for free.

I used to get DirectTV Sunday Ticket online but YouTube wants $400 for it or for you to have YouTubeTV for $75 a month AND $300. If you want RedZone Channel with that, it is $40 more. That is such a rip off it is ridiculous, especially with the blackout restrictions, you would not even get all 17 Bears games. If you only watched the Bears, it would be over $30 per game. 

I went with the $15 monthly NFL+ Premium and will pay for it for 5 months ($75) which will get me thru the entire regular season.

I just had the NFL+ past year and you can watch all prime time games on a tablet or computer, no TV, but when I renewed to the Premium, it says all the games ( I suspect the bears games local isnt available to me but I watch them locally anyways) are available plus redzone and NFL Network. It says I can also watch on TV with premium. All the bear games are locally fed to me so its not a problem but with you in AZ it would be all of them for you because your out of state.

I have mirrored an iPhone, Macbook, and iMac screen to my TV via WiFi with no issues.  Some TVs will need a WiFi adapter to do that but my Sony has the software built in.   The picture quality isn't HD perfection but it's still pretty good and far better than watching a game on a computer screen.   

Using a VPN sourced from the Chicago area might get you the live local games but some streaming services disallow all VPN connections.   The other way companies check is to match the zip code from the billing credit card and consider that your local area.  Get a burner credit card with a Chicago area billing address and your set.  Maybe someone knows what NFL+ does to determine your "local market".

If you have NFL Sunday Ticket it is available there too. Preseason games didn't used to be - so that's a new thing. Hopefully it works.

Its no longer a separate app on my TV, now its inside of the YouTubeTV app. I need to find my way around that app - so its preseason for me too LOL

youre not totally wrong tho - it IS on NFL Network tomorrow.

Ha.  I was watching it on NFL Network live (I have YouTubeTV) when about halfway through the broadcast it told me my free preview for Sunday Ticket was over. It flashes the cost of the new season for the Ticket and my wife looks at me…’you know you’re gonna get it, go ahead.’  She’s a good better half. Lol.

Haha - I have enjoyed having it on YouTube. I had the single streaming version for past couple of years but really glad I can finally record the games.
