This is mainly for the out of state fans such as myself. I came across this little deal on nfl.com last night, and have been seriously considering it. For $20, you can watch all the pre-season games in HD, whenever you want. In addition to that, there will be the pre-season games from prior years, screen in screen options, and 30 minute condensed games. That last one is great for me, because I'd like to see the other teams too, but not for 3 hours. So I did a little research, and came across a $5 discount just by typing in the promo code directv. So really it's $15 to watch all the pre-season you want, whenever you want. For me stuck in WI, I'm 90% on board doing this, and I just want to share the option with other Jet fans.
Another deal for the REGULAR SEASON, is if you buy Madden 25 on amazon.com for $99 it gives you a code for the NFL Sunday Ticket that you can use to watch every game on your Phone/Tablet/Computer. You could easily resell Madden for at least $30-$40 immediately after launch so you are paying $60 for Sunday ticket basically. http://www.amazon.com/Madden-Annive...UTF8&qid=1375989458&sr=8-1&keywords=madden+25
There is a thread on that actually, and I even posted about that deal back in June. (separate thread yet again)
Hmmm....I wonder if I can use this streaming from my laptop to a Chromecast on my TV. That would totally make it worthwhile.
I got Sunday Ticket for $75 this year and also got another $10 off my monthly bill for the next six months just by calling and threatening to cancel. It's not hard. So, basically, I got the Ticket for $15. Next year I'm going to see if I can figure out how I can get them to pay me to get it.
I was just trying to figure out how I'm watching tomorrows game. I'm away on business and only have my iPad with me. Thanks for posting this dude, made my night.
Np, glad to help Also, happy to help the other guy with the amazon thing. Nobody seemed to notice when I posted it in June, probably cuz it was in the video game forum.
This really is a great deal.. I bought this a few days ago.. Have it running on a Macbook Pro which is connected via HDMI to my LED TV... Quality is great... Just did a test with the Redskin vs Titans game. Can't wait till tomorrow.. Even if you can't hook it up to a TV, I would deff buy this package.. It is worth it!
Does anyone know if the madden deal allows you to watch replays of games? I don't have Directv, so I will just be using the tablet/laptop streaming option
Prolly not. I got NFL Replay last year for about $40. It has all the game since 2009. Its great quality but I wasnt able to use it much because my laptop crashed and only had a tablet.
Thanks, glad to hear it's a nice package. I'll be checking out all the games from tonight in a little bit. I hope the 30 minute games are as awesome as they sound. I just would like to hear some of the commentary, which is the only downside. It doesn't allow you to. You can stream any game, and check out redzone channel, but the quality is not always the greatest. Maybe it depends on the internet speed, but it's not some perfect fantasy by any means. I wasn't going to buy it this year for once, but the amazon deal suckered me in. It was a no brainer.
Thank you again. Looks like I'm going to pair the Madden deal with NFL Rewind: favorite team since I do work most Sundays unfortunately. So ill be able to Watch games live with the Madden deal and then watch replays for The games where I work for $129.98 plus I get a copy of Madden, which I would have bought anyway. Good deal in my book
Isn't it though? I spent a solid hour, maybe 2 just reading all the fine print, because I thought it couldn't really be true, or they would some how weasel their way out of it. As long as you live in the US, and say you can't get DirecTV in your household, you can get the ticket. Other people in past years have posted a link for it, which has been I believe $350, and I think $250 last year. It's a burden for the low-middle class people, but if you're a die-hard like myself, you do it anyway. Well this year I was just going to deal with it (a saying I made a popular catchphrase of in my workplace long before that loser Howie Mandel), but then back in June I discovered that epic deal on Amazon. So I posted about it in the Madden 25 thread, and all I got was crickets. Then Sox posted a thread about it about a week ago roughly, and it got a few replies, but not much notice once I chimed in with the citation to the Madden 25 thread. Now in this thread, here is Sox yet again trying to steal my thunder so to speak. :lol: It sounds stupid I understand this (and there are no hard feelings with the guy, and can already envision a Byz smart-ass, yet likely brilliant reply), but it sucks when something awesome you find goes completely unnoticed/unappreciated (for 2 months at that). Anyway, sorry, /rant. I'm very glad to have helped out a fellow fan. :beer: A simple thank you is all I wanted haha, mission accomplished.
I was hoping they would be up already, but I guess not... That's kind of annoying because I was really looking forward to watching those tonight.
