NFL Sunday Ticket is no longer worth the price | Bobby Burack

You may have received an email over the past week about renewing or adding NFL Sunday Ticket, YouTube's exclusive package for out-of-market NFL games.

You may also have noticed the price.

It is expensive.

And each year, the NFL further reduces the package's value by expanding its national windows.

Let us explain.

Sunday Ticket does not include nationally televised games or games available in your local market.

Subscribers do not receive Thursday Night Football, Sunday Night Football, or Monday Night Football.

Nor does the package include the three or four games available locally across Fox and CBS during the 1 p.m. and 4:25 p.m.

ET windows.

For example, viewers in Michigan cannot watch Lions games on Sunday Ticket because those games air locally on Fox or CBS.

We agree.

The NFL's television schedule is unnecessarily complicated.

And it's getting worse.

RESTAURANT ASSOCIATIONS URGE CONGRESS TO ACT AS NFL SUNDAY TICKET STREAMING SWITCH THREATENS BAR REVENUES Netflix will carry five games this season: 49ers-Rams from Australia in Week 1 on Thursday night, the first Thanksgiving Eve matchup between the Packers and Rams, two Christmas Day games, and an unannounced Saturday game later in the season.
