    Hello folks. Does anyone know if there is a site online that will let you pay to watch any nfl game you want? I get stuck watching the clowns and lions all the time.
    I want to watch the Steelers. It would be nice if you could pay on a game by game basis. I have watched those free links a number of times and they are getting old with all the F'n adds and **** they try to get you to download. I have cable so direct tv is out. If I could watch every Steeler game I'd spend $20 a game for a half decent picture on my laptop. Anyone have any suggestions? Thanks!

    I thought the official site (Steelers.com) was offering that starting this year?
    Let me check

    Yeah, they have a link on the main page:
    Watch Steeler Games Online.

    There's also game rewind for games already played but you can choose who you want to see:

    not sure about video, but I think you can definitely pay for radiobroadcasts of the game....

    That's for rewind. There's no service other than Sunday Ticket that I'm aware of that gives US residents access to live video broadcasts.

    Yeah, just checked and it is for rewind. They do offer all the preseason games live but once the season begins it's afterwards for streaming.

    TTF, you really DO stay on top of this stuff.

    Actually if you use Google Chrome to watch it doesn't kill you with ads. At least it didn't me when I was watching the non televised preseason games this year. Chrome blocks ads and pop-ups like 99% of the time for me.

    I have read that Madden 25 Anniversary Edition comes with one year of Directv Sunday Ticket for laptops and mobile devices. They only made 50,000 of them.

    I have the ticket, but it would be cool to have a service that provided a one team package. I'd bet you'd get screwed out of prime time game coverage on the big networks though.

    Thanks Jim, I have Adblock plus on my desktop but not my laptop. MY laptop is what I watch the games on. I just installed adblock plus on it. Another question. What player do I actually need on my laptop to watch games properly?
    I always get these pop-ups saying I need Real player or something. What do I need? Thanks again!

    and IF you use a VPN to fake a non-USA IP, grab one from the Netherlands - gamepass apparently is free there

    I thought that was a special offer from Amazon.com if you pre-ordered the game. The price on that edition with all the extras including the Sunday ticket was 100 dollars. I thought about it but since I was unhappy with the direction EA took the game last year I don't think paying yet another 60 dollars plus the additional 40 for the extras was a good value.

    I got it and I think you're right. I believe it was only if you pre-ordered from Amazon.

    Like Freak says, this is actually better for folks outside of the USA. Go figure.

    The only problem last year was the amount of time Steelers were shown on the big networks, which over here meant being shown on Sky Sports, which meant paying yet more (not to mention putting up with some of the most godawful analysis and presenting known to man).
