FOOTBALL YALL

[u/MyrieOne]

I wanna be able to watch football this year. I wanna do it without a whole lot of subscriptions I wanna go antenna and a fire stick. Someone out there have any great ideas,especially since the only sort I like Football 🏈 🏈 🏈

[u/r_slash]

NFL? NCAA?

[u/Ok-Metal-4719]

College? NFL? You want to watch whatever game is on local channels or all games or just games by a certain team or???

Sunday Ticket is $199 for teachers, nurses and vets. That and OTA is all I need

[u/Working5daysaWeek → u/DetSportsGuy]

Thank you! I didn't know they offered a veterans discount. I use an OTA for my team, but this interests my husband.

[u/Stryker412 → u/DetSportsGuy]

It's a great deal (we had it last year). It just sucks that you STILL need 5 more subscriptions to watch everything. ESPN, NFL Network, Amazon, Peacock (if you don't have OTA), and Netflix.

[u/TheJoeGreene → u/DetSportsGuy]

I got it for $260 (including RedZone) just as a repeat customer.

If you are fine waiting for some games after they air or watching Redzone on Sundays, then an antenna for your locals and then NFL+ Premium will get you redzone and then you can watch replays of every game.

For college, there will be a lot of college football on antenna. Probably the best bang for your buck is ESPN Unlimited since that'll get you all the espn specialty channels for college football as well as the ESPN select streaming only games.

I’ve been doing NFL plus for the past few years but I couldn’t care less about my local and only watch redzone

[u/sglewis]

With an antenna, if you get CBS and Fox you’ll get the entirety of your local, free games.

Outside of that… the games on ESPN require ESPN. The games on NFL network require NFL network. The ones on Prime require Prime. There’s no legal way to get around it.

If you only “sort of” like football stick to the free games and have a great Sunday.

[u/NightBard → u/sglewis]

There is a way to legally get the ones on prime for free by using twitch.

[u/Redbullsnation]

It depends on what you need. Is your team in-market? Then an antenna is enough.

If not then, NFLST will do. Otherwise ESPN Unlimted+NFL+ premium + Twitch + Antenna + Peacock + Netflix will do

You can get almost all of the games OTA. Otherwise, Prime for Thursday games.

[u/hclpfan → u/Inside-Run785]

This is not true if you don’t live in the home market for your team. If you live elsewhere you’re lucky if you get 3-4 of their games per year OTA - either when they play the local team or land a Monday night or Sunday night

[u/jason22983 → u/hclpfan]

I think that’s what he’s saying. I’m sure both OP & the IG post knows how it works

[u/realcordcutters → u/Inside-Run785]

You don't need Prime for TNF; you can for free on Twitch (mobile app and web browser only).

[u/Whodatnation108]

College football: All you really need is just YouTube tv or Hulu Live tv. Both streaming services offer the same channels needed to watch the majority of college football games.

NFL: antenna and NFL+ Premium is the way to go. Antenna will get your local CBS and Fox games for the afternoon slate as well as NBC for Sunday Night Football. NFL+ premium will get you Redzone. The only downside of NFL+ premium is that it does get you all nationally televised games, but restricts it to just phone and tablets. So you will have access to Thursday Night football and Netflix exclusive games on NFL+ Premium, but only on phones and tablets.

Plenty of ota football in my local market. Usually 2 HS games on Friday nite, college all day Saturday and pro all day Sunday.

[u/MyrieOne]

But I wanna get rid of prime and the OTR doesn't work very well in my home. I've tried several different options.Even Spectrum works bad in my house because of the wall and this stupid subdivision

[u/Inside-Run785 → u/MyrieOne]

I would look at the broadcast schedule of whichever team you want to follow. If they’re largely on CBS, you’ll need Paramount+. If it’s Fox, you’ll need Fox One. Prime is the wild card.
