Best NFL TV package?

[BayAreaBoltz]

As mentioned previously in this thread NFL+ is pretty cheap at $99 a year. As a vet I get a discount to $79 a year. This has worked for me for the last three years or so. Other than the price benefit, I can watch any game, actually any game going back ten or more years. Yes, I can watch live games on the phone if I want to but the games are available within an hour of their completion. The best benefit as far as I am concerned is the ability to skip commercials, some of the inane comments by the announcers (especially the color commenters like Collinsworth), and the asinine halftime update shows. There are also choices to watch a condensed version of a game that cuts out nearly everything except for the plays themselves, or another version that shows all 22 players on the field at the same time. Sometimes alternate game announcers are available and also broadcasts in Spanish.

Not that I am in a rush to watch a game but these options cut it down from three hours to one and a half hours or even one hour. Often on other team games I will watch the first quarter or half in the standard version to get familiar with the players then I will switch to the condensed version to watch the remainder of a game. So, it works for me

Wait - so NFL+ is only showing the games after they are played?

I just want to thank you for your service. Taking care of sick and injured animals is God's Work, thank you!

Yes, it used to be called NFL Game Pass. We had it for years until YouTube got Sunday Ticket.

We used to have to stay off social media all day Sunday until we could watch the game. It was inconvenient but we made it work.

One side note, within an hour the game might be available after it ends, but it will be a full game with commercials. It takes them a few hours to post the condensed version. Or at least it did two years ago.

Yes, still takes awhile to get the versions without commercials but until then I can fast forward through them. There is also an option to turn on or off scores from other games and they are getting better at hiding the progress of those other games. I have to be alert for in-game updates of other games so I can mute them, and sometimes the announcers will comment on a game I plan to watch. Overall, I can watch any game every week no matter what network or streaming service games are on! For me this is great as I don't have really have a "need" to watch live games anymore.

I mentioned that I am a vet but Army, not an animal vet. However, my wife and I just adopted two older cats from the humane society and this morning as I am typing this the nine year old male has finally decided to come out of hiding to play. Both cats had terrible situations when they came to the humane society but slowly they are coming around.
