Hey friend,
Have you heard of Youtube TV? It’s a great streaming service that I just signed up for that has a ton of live and on-demand programming. One of the questions I had when I was doing my research and signing up was, ‘Does Youtube TV have NFL games?’ Well, the answer is yes and no.
Yes, Youtube TV does have NFL games! You can watch both live and on-demand games from all 32 teams in the NFL. There’s also access to the RedZone channel so you can watch all of the action from every game in one place. Plus they often have exclusive rights to big games like the Super Bowl, so you don’t have to worry about missing out.
But there are some caveats! For starters, there’s no way to get a subscription to just the NFL programming, so you’ll have to sign up for the standard Youtube TV plan. This plan costs $65 a month, though you’ll get a seven day trial before you decide to commit. Also, the NFL Network isn’t available on Youtube TV yet, so you won’t get access to extra NFL content like analysis, highlights or the NFL Draft.
I think YouTube TV is still a great option for watching NFL games. I personally love how I can customize my subscription so I only get the networks I want, and it’s great to have a single streaming service for all the shows and movies that I watch. But the downside is that I don’t have access to all the exclusive NFL content like the NFL Network, which is a bit of a bummer.
My suggestion is to give YouTube TV a try. It may be worth the $65 a month for the added freedom and customization, and you may find that all the games you want to watch are available. If you’re not ready to commit to the full subscription, then you may be able to look into other options for streaming NFL games.
So let me know what you decide. Have you ever tried a streaming service like Youtube TV, or are you more of a traditional cable watcher?
Moving on, let’s talk about how to access those football games. Typically, you can access the games on Youtube TV by searching for the team in the app and then selecting the live game as it plays. The good news here is that you won’t need a streaming device or dedicated TV, as Youtube TV works on mobile, desktop, or streaming devices like Chromecast and Apple TV.
One thing to note is that depending on your location, you may be limited in terms of the games you can watch. This is due to the various regional television contracts in place. So if you’re based in one of the US regions, you won’t necessarily be able to watch games outside that region. It’s something to keep in mind when looking for NFL games on Youtube TV.
Another thing to take note of – and this is really important – is that Youtube TV is not able to access NFL Sunday Ticket. This means you won’t get access to out-of-market games, which can be a bit of a bummer if you’re trying to watch your favorite team from across the country.
Overall though, Youtube TV is still a great option for watching NFL games. The default price may be a bit more expensive than some of the competitors out there, but the ability to customize your subscription and access to exclusive content makes up for it. Plus, you get access to all the other shows and movies available on Youtube TV as well – so definitely worth checking out!
