"For now, it seems if you want the ability to watch multiple games at once, you will need to pay for YouTube TV. You will be able to watch NFL Sunday Ticket on YouTube if you don’t want YouTube TV but it will cost extra and may not have all of the features.

We have also learned that NFL Sunday Ticket will offer multiple packages allowing you to pick a cheaper more limited package if you want."
 
So if you cut the cord on cable and go with YouTube tv are you just for the most part missing out on Showtime, HBO, Cinemax etc? Right now we have maybe 250 channels and we watch like 5 and then of course we have Prime and Netflix. Thoughts?

You can add those to YouTube TV too but YouTube TV is just like cable really. A lot of channels you are paying for that you won't use probably. YouTube TV is nice but it's still $65/mo. I would like a system where you could choose your 10-15 favorite channels and pick like a 12 game NFL package or something. 90% of Dallas' games are nationally televised, easily grabbed in HD over the air. I'd pay something to get the 2 or 3 that aren't if I could package it up into some channels.

Need the COWBOYS ONLY PACKAGE, don't care about other games
 
I was hoping Amazon would have won the NFL Sunday Ticket rights. I already pay $120 for my prime subscription.


And then another amount just like you pay to watch prime videos which is a rip off

Pretty soon Netflix will be $329!

This right here!!!

The price inflation over the years for Netflix has been insane. It went from 7.99 to $16.99 for a regular subscription. I don't even watch it that much but my kids love some of their content.

Now this is what I want specifics on.
The absolute cheapest way to get Cowboys games.
Preferably only Cowboys games.

Why would anyone buy a Cowboys only package unless it is a 3-4 game package? Most of the Cowboys games are free over the air since they are Nationally Televised. I would say 12 out of 16 games most years and all the playoff games. Absolutely free...
 
If you have good internet and streaming services at your home Youtube TV is great. I would never go back to cable or directv. Costs $60 a month and you get all the channels you would normally get with cable. The only thing you don't get is premium channels such as HBO, Starz, Cinemax, etc. However, you can just sign up for those separately with APPS such as HBO Max. The APPS are better any way because you can watch the programming you want when you want to. You don't have to wait for the HBO channel to play the movie or TV series you are wanting to see.

I checked into Youtube TV when we bought a lake condo in addition to our prime residence. I didn't want to pay 2 cable bills for the 2 different locations. Signed up for Youtube TV and I am able to watch it at the prime residence and the lake condo for one monthly fee of $60. When I travel I can also pull it up on my laptop or another smart TV as long as it has the app. The only warning I would give is don't try following the games online (Cowboys Zone, etc) while watching via Youtube TV. Youtube TV will run about a minute or so behind so the game will get ruined for you if you are on a forum while watching.

If I miss 1 game I would be pissed.
 
I have zero confidence that in the end this will be a reasonable/affordable option to watch NFL games.

I have a lot of confidence that I will end up doing what I do now and that's streaming games using "alternate" means.
