IM posting this after listening to people WHINE on the Sunday Ticet thread about the price. So the NFL + Premium plan is only 99 dollars. It gives you both full game and condensed game as well as redzone channel. So if you are so broke you cant afford Sunday ticket, you can afford this. I think the real problem is people expect everything to be for free.

I have had this for the past 3 years and personally love it. If I had to, Id just stay away from games until Cowboys game is over, and as soon as it ends, you could come to this and watch the game.
What's the difference between this and the NFL ticket. I'm not whining, I promise. I just want to know if there's a significant difference that might make the Ticket worth paying more for. Or do you get every Cowboy game either way?

Dont pay, but you think Amazon got tax breaks and subsidies also? Do you get free Amazon products?

Communities are far better with a team than without.

Your tax dollars pay for roads and highways. Do they still charge you tolls for highways and bridges?
Yes I do (get free Amazon). You can too but you like to pay.

No they do not charge me tolls because I am smart enough to stay on the toll free roads and highways to watch you sit in traffic on a toll road. Use "Avoid Toll" on Google Maps.

What that has to do with NFL Owner ripping off actual tax payers is beyond me.

Communities better with Football teams, tell that to Los Angeles California the largest metropolitan area in the US who went without a team for nearly 30 years. Because there is a lot of better things to do in the LA area than sit 3-4 hours in a stadium and then 2-4 hours in more traffic to and from a game.

You are delirious.

The ticket shows you the games live, NFL+ only shows you live games if they are being broadcast already by your local affiliates. So the difference is significant if you need to watch the game as it is beig played. If you dont care about that and can wait for the game to end, then this is a better value.

Thanks for the clarification. Yeah, I'm good with watching a game tape delayed if I have to.

The Redzone is awesome.

me too... thats why I started this for non whiners about the price:)

Streaming is free. I understand people being upset because most of us got all our games on broadcast television. Of course we forget those games consisted of our local teams and whatever the networks felt like. We certainly didn't get a plethora of options. One of my favorite things about this site is some kind soul always seems to post legit links to our games. That right there is brotherhood.

The problem is, if you watch any live games, you're going to get score updates and possibly highlights of other live games.
I'll just make sure to always watch the Cowboys' game first. Games that don't involve the Cowboys are just a curiosity for me, so I don't care if they get spoiled.

Same here but I'm starting to think that it's not going to come down much at all when it does. The powers that be like it that way.
I guess the best we can hope for is to buy it at list price these days. I allegedly bought a new one online from a dealer but when I went to finalize the deal they jacked it up 5k over list with some BS charges

Told them to pound salt……which probably didn’t stop them for still selling it to somebody else desperate for a car

Yes. Not a chance I pay over that. Same goes for housing. If someone sends back my offer after you offered asking price, I bail. Oh yeah, no battery powered anything above a weed whacker or chainsaw. The tech isn't there yet IMO. I wouldn't even recommend a ride on mower.

thats why if you are going to use the NFL+ Premium way... you dont watch other live games. You go to the garage, or do yard work, go grab some food, dont look at social media... game ends, plop yourself down and watch. It isnt that hard. i thought it would be, but I did it when I was coaching and couldnt watch the games live. Id get home, watch game and it was absolutely no different than watching it live.

I used to threaten my parents that if they came to tell me scores, their kid would not play for the rest of the day. It worked pretty well.

Yeah, you're right. If you don't know how it ended, what difference does it make? But for me, I only care enough about Cowboys games to go through that. I can only speak for myself, but I'm not going to do that to watch Houston at Cleveland later on. Any good games not Cowboys related are usually nationally televised.

Every week I have small bets with friends that span many games and situation. Anything but Sunday ticket wouldn't work. And the price tag isn't worth it to me. Not that I can't afford it. At one point in time, I was willing to pay for it, but wasn't allowed. That is no longer the case, but I am no longer willing.

It's not just about affording it. It is overpriced especially when you have to purchase the youtube tv streaming platform subscription with it. It sucks if you can't participate posting in live action game threads if you don't have it.

No, it is a matter of overpaying vs. not affording it. I got the NFL package on Directv yearly each season. I am still under contract with Directv so it doesn't make sense to subscribe to youtube tv in order to also get the NFL Sunday package.
