As most of you know, we moved into the MIL's house to take care of her. All of us are Steelers fans, and are tired of calling around to find who is showing it, only to have Tiffany be wrong about it showing there, etc.

So, how can I get EVERY game on TV in my home?

Thanks for the leads.
 
Yes, Youtbube TV and subscribe to the Sunday ticket OR don't get You tube TV and pay a bit more for the Sunday ticket. It's worth every penny of it and the ony way you can get every single Steeler game and never worry. Plus you get every single other NFL game. I love having all the games and rooting for teams to lose the late games when we have the early game, etc.
 
Just google "how to get Sundaty Ticket without a Youtube TV subscription" if you want to get it without getting YouTube TV. You need a Smart TV, though, or you'll be watching on one of your devices. Same with You Tube TV....you need a smart TV that's connected to the internet for either option.
 
The best value out there is NFL+. It's $99 and gives you every game all season. The catch is they're available right after they're done. Which suits me perfectly so I can miss all the commercials. If you wait a couple hours you can even get the condensed game with just the plays (about 35-40 minutes). Plus you have access to the all-22 for every game. I've subscribed for about 8-9 years. Best money I spend all year.
 
$480 for NFLST this year. Last year it was around $449. They get greedier and greedier every damn year. I remember paying somewhere around $199 when DirecTV had the package. Yes, that was years ago, but that is one hell of an increase over the years.

However, if you have a college student in your family, the student discounted price is $119 ($128.82 total with tax):

Am I eligible? Students who are currently attending an accredited university or college and are over the age of 18 are eligible. When you sign up for the NFL Sunday Ticket Student Plan, you will be asked to verify your student status via SheerID.
How many streams do I get? Students get 1 stream on any connected device with the student plan.
If I sign up, can I share with family members? The NFL Sunday Ticket Student Plan is intended for individual students. For unlimited streams at home or the option to share it with your family, you will need a standard NFL Sunday Ticket membership.

@NormalJake beat me to it...

I've been a Sunday Ticket subscriber ever since I figured out it was TOO EXPENSIVE TO HANG OUT W/ @Superman & @DBS1970 every weekend and for every game.

Buy your own drinks and food - cheaper all the way around across 17 games...

I got NFLST the very first year it was offered. it was supposed to be $99 every year as long as it was paid for before a certain date for next year. That didn't last more than a couple years. I cancelled it years ago as it got to be more than I was willing to spend.

We were sponging off Ark.
 
You can have up to 6 different parties {I think) on one YTTV account as long as they are within 20 miles of you. Split it up with neighbors.
 
Get the free plan at www.USATVnow.com. Sometimes they have Steeler games. It worked for my folks when they lived in Florida.
Try lying and put in a Pittsburgh zip code when you register. 15237 is one.

IIRC you're now here in Arizona where I live. In addition to the national games, the PHX stations usually carry 4-5 Steelers games on top of that. There are a lot of Steelers fans in AZ. The ratings must do very well.

You're correct. I live here now. Why anyone would live here on purpose is beyond me. But, family.

That being said, I see Steelers fans all the time. Like, constantly. I just want to save the money I would spend on going to see the game at a sports bar.
 
Get a v SeeBox as long as you have high speed internet and you can get all the pittsburgh local stations.

I have an Amazon Firestick, can't remember which sports app I have but I can get every game from all the teams.

We have the firestick, too. How did you make that work.

I'll have to google the SeeBox thing.

Youtube the best sports apps for the firestick, I can pretty much get any NFL, MLB, NHL, etc game. I'll see what the app is when I get home tonight.
 
**** the NFL, they aren't getting a damn dime from me. I got on Fubo to watch the game here in South Central PA, and they only had the Ravens game on. I'll watch the youtube low-lights after each game before I hand over hundreds of dollars to the Shield.

You get regular cable vision DJ? You might be surprised how many games you will get from CBS,etc. If you are a cable cutter,I use a used 10$ HD antenna and pick up all sorts of channels without having to pay a nickel/subscription. It’s actually pretty rare when the Steelers aren’t on. Cheers.
