Anyone have NFL Gamepass?

Dr. D : 9/23/2017 4:26 pm
First time in years I haven't had Directv Sunday Ticket. It seemed Giants have been on national TV so often last few years, ST wasn't worth nearly $300.

Was thinking about Gamepass. Anyone have it and have comments, pro or con?

Will be away for much of weekend, so might not be posting but will check for responses. Thanks!
Game pass is fine....if you are OK with not watching live

alternative is to set up a VPN that shows you are overseas. Then you can watch live.

I do. We cut the satellite/cable TV cord about two years ago so I had to find another option for football. If you have Roku, your account will also allow you to watch the games through that (though not live). You can stream the games live to your TV but you have to have fast internet access to do that. Obviously, it's great for watching the game on your computer.

Will be at LAX in the morning for a flight back to DUrham

You can watch replays of all the Sunday games (except for SNF) right after all the 4:25 PM games are over...usually just before 8 PM.

Plus you can watch condensed versions of any game (about 30 minutes) and go back and watch replays of any game for any week.

It's well worth the $99.
Yeah I've had it since the

Got to reddit. Subreddit is nflstreams. Each game with have a thread. Its free. About 30 seconds behind live action.

I have no issues. I have verizon fios. Just the basic plan. Its fine. I hook my pc up to my tv and go full screen in 1080p.

Admins should post about nflstreams and sticky it
Hmmm .... stupid question?

I thought the only way you could get Game Pass is if you live in an Appt. building that does not offer DirecTV (with ST)?
I thought DirecTV pretty much had a monopoly on outside market games?
I have been looking to cut ties with DirecTV for a while but, didn't want to miss a Giant's game out here in CA.

So, I can get Game Pass .... but, I can't watch the games live (which is perfectly fine .... if I have to wait a few hours) and save about $1,500/year?

Thanks in advance.
been trying to sign up for GamePass

since I moved to Oahu. It doesn't seem to want to take any of my credit cards, though all are fine. I don't know that the problem is, but they don't seem to want my money. I'd try a stream, but I'd prefer not to watch at 7AM.
can't sign on

a regular credit/debit card that has your name on it.....if you try to use something like a Vanilla Visa gift card, even though you have plenty of money in it, it will not be accepted....they want your info.....
