Pros and Cons of NFL Sunday Ticket
Pros:
NFL Sunday Ticket is the ideal companion to your Sunday afternoon of NFL entertainment, allowing you to tune into every single out-of-market game, with high-quality streaming. Not only is the quality picture perfect, but you can also pause and rewind as much as you please, allowing you to re-live every glorious moment.
Subscribers will also benefit from unlimited concurrent streams whilst at home, and a swanky new multiview feature that allows you to cram as much football onto your screen as possible. If you want to upgrade further, then the addition of NFL Red Zone is $10 a month.
This year, NFL Sunday Ticket has added some special features to embrace the fantasy side of the game. Fans can now link their NFL or Yahoo fantasy league with their YouTube TV account, allowing them to track their team’s performance throughout the games via an on-page integration.
Cons:
Whilst NFL Sunday Ticket does give you fantastic exposure to the Sunday slate of NFL games, it does not include the rest of the week’s Prime Time fixtures. This can be a real frustration, especially given the hefty price tag. Consequently, if your team is appearing on Prime Time a lot, like the Dallas Cowboys or New York Jets, then NFL Sunday Ticket might not be for you. In order to ensure access to Prime Time games, fans would need to subscribe to another service on top of their NFL Sunday Ticket subscription, which will set you back even more money. This is where the NFL Sunday Ticket + YouTube TV package stands out. It is expensive, but the access to NFL games is unrivaled!
Troubleshooting Issues
NFL Sunday Ticket not showing on YouTube TV: If NFL Sunday Ticket is not appearing under the ‘Live’ section during game time, it might be worth double-checking that you have your location settings turned on. NFL Sunday Ticket uses this to determine what games it can show you.
Can’t access NFL Sunday Ticket: Given that there are two routes to subscribing, either through YouTube TV or YouTube on its own, make sure that you are accessing through the route that you signed up to. For example, if you signed up via YouTube's main website, you won’t be able to access it via the YouTube TV app.
NFL Sunday Ticket won’t let me watch certain games: NFL Sunday Ticket only shows the out-of-market games. Your local games will be blocked as part of the blackout restrictions, introduced to support local TV providers and encourage people to attend the games.
